Names in Myths
I was wondering if anyone knows any myths or stories that have names playing an important part. The reason is that I've read this one story called "The Rule of Names" by Ursula Le Guin where knowing something's name give a person power over it.I was wondering if this theme apears in any other stories.

Check out Le Guin's 'The Earthsea Trilogy', too. nt  ·  genis  ·  2/4/2004, 1:50 PM
