How easy is it for Soma to be killed?

Yes, you read it right.  I'm asking how easy it is for certain more intelligent enemies to kill Soma.  I bring this up because in DoS Dimitri says something that didn't exactly make sense to me.  Basically, in the Garden of Madness, after you beat Aguni, there is a scene with Celia who appears to kill Mina.  However, if you are wearing Mina's talisman, Arikado shows up saying that it was really a doppleganer.  At which point Dimitri's soul leaves Soma's body and uses the dead Doppleganer as his new body.  He then says something curious.  Basically, he asks Arikado if he would like to be addressed by his real name and then tells Arikado not to take a step or Soma would die.
This got me thinking.  If Soma was to hear Arikado's real name, would he really die.  Assuming that is true, what would actually happen to Soma?  Also, if this is true then why don't more intelligent enemies like Death try to kill Soma in this way.  For all we know, doing this would cause Soma to revert back to his previous life in which he was Count Dracula, the Lord of Darkness.

What do all of you think?  Am I on to something or am I just nuts?  I really hope that I'm not nuts.

Er...I think the "don't take a step or Soma will die" has nothing to do with Arikado's true name. I think he's just saying that because Soma is incapcitated, and if Alucard so much as takes one step, Dimitri will slit his throat or something. Mayhap I am the crazy one, though. Prunyuu~

Well, as I said, these were some thoughts that I had when I read the dialogue in that scene.
