→"What does whom call me when?"
The Fool told [[Fitz]] that he deliberately did not take a name for himself when he first came to Buckkeep, and that Fitz was the only one who really saw him and started to use the title as a name. When he comes to visit Fitz after the 'Amber period' in [[Bingtown]] and Fitz wants to know what people call him now that he is not the Fool anymore, he evades the question. When Fitz asks what he should call him, asks for his true name, the Fool tells Fitz that his mother simply called him Beloved.
[[Nighteyes]], Fitz' wit -bonded wolf, is comfortable with calling the Fool [[the Scentless One]].
The [[Pale Woman]] tells Fitz that in the Fool's homeland, the custom is to exchange or trade names with your true love. Later, after Fitz returns the Fool to life using a combination of [[Wit]] and [[Skill]] and calls the Fool 'Beloved,' the Fool asks him to stop as the Pale Woman had mocked him with the name during his time in her captivity at the [[Glacier Plains]] where she killed him.
