"Russell makes an extremely interesting and
important proposal about proper names."

— "Notes on Russell," by Curtis Brown

"The Names  (1982) is the seventh novel of
American novelist Don DeLillo. The work, set
mostly in Greece, is primarily a series of
character studies, interwoven with a plot about
a mysterious 'language cult' that is behind
a number of unexplained murders."
