"Although SCP-507 has an already-established name due to its unremarkable upbringing, it seems to find entertainment in forcing those it meets to give it a nickname in lieu of divulging this information. Thus SCP-507 will now respond to the names Tommy, Steve, Bruto, Guy, Houdini, and Grabnok the Destroyer."

"The most famous hero of the story of the New York City underworld is Edward Delaney, alias William Delaney, alias Joseph Marvin, alias Joseph Morris--alias Monk Eastman, the leader of a gang of twelve hundred men.

Those shifting "dodges" (as tedious as a game of masks in which one can never be certain who is who) fail to include the man's true name--if we allow ourselves to believe that there is such a thing as "a man's true name." The fact is, the name given in the Records Division of the Williamsburg section of Brooklyn is Edward Ostermann, later Americanized to Eastman."
Jorge Luis Borges, A Universal History Of Iniquity, "Monk Eastman, Purveyor of Iniquities"

The age long strife I see

Where I fought in many guises,

Many names, — but always me."

"Who am I? One name you might have for me is the World, or you might call me the Universe, or perhaps God, or perhaps the Truth. I am All, and I am One. So of course, this also means that I am You."
