Bob called me one day and claimed that he had no monk name, so he called himself The Monk With No Name, thereby giving himself a name, but then he no longer was a monk with no name, so he was no longer The Monk With No Name making him a monk with no name once again, so he kept The Monk With No Name for his name, but then he ... (Help Me! I'm caught in a paradox!)
Let me try again. You could call The Monk With No Name a name, which would make him no longer a monk with no name, but then he would have no name so we could once again call him The Monk With No Name, or maybe No Longer The Monk With No Name, or maybe just Misnomer, ...
I saw him the other day dancing along the yellow brick road with straw coming out of his ears singing, "If I only had a name..."
On the other hand, he may never have been The Monk With No Name, since those of us who know him well have always called him names. Even if he has no name, he still has a plethora of titles including The Clueless Wonder, The Aimless One (but we hope that this does not refer to his use of the commode), The Void, and Zero Constitution. In certain situations he has also been known as Bob Venusian, Bob Venereal, and most commonly Bob Vesuvius. That's not bad for a Monk With No Name!
