Read this excerpt from Through the Looking-Glass by Lewis Carroll. "This must be the wood,” she said thoughtfully to herself, "where things have no names. I wonder what'll become of MY name when I go in? I shouldn't like to lose it at all—because they'd have to give me another, and it would be almost certain to be an ugly one. But then the fun would be trying to find the creature that had got my old name! That's just like the advertisements, you know, when people lose dogs—‘ANSWERS TO THE NAME OF "DASH”: HAD ON A BRASS COLLAR’—just fancy calling everything you met ‘Alice,’ till one of them answered! Only they wouldn't answer at all, if they were wise.”
