Ah, but be careful. In some places, your real name holds great power and can be used for many... say... is that a bear on your bare shoulder? A bear that can barely be seen? Good thing he's wearing a muzzle, otherwise the bear would bare his bear teeth into your bare shoulder.
Real names can have tremendous power. That is why cats have three name. One that we know them by, one that other cats know them by and one that is known only to themselves.
I'm not sure why I don't remember names well. It works out fine, though, because folks can call themselves anything they choose. Faces are a bit harder to change.
