"- Как тебя зовут?
- Не знаю, никто не зовёт"...

One of the saddest things about this is that Ishi isn’t his real name. We’ll never know what it was. “Ishi” was the word for “man” in his language. The Yati people had a custom that proscribed them from speaking their name unless formally introduced by another of their tribe. As he was the last of his tribe, he could only say, "I have none, because there were no people to name me.”

Иши да, тщательно скрывал свое имя. Молодец, я считаю. А то бы сейчас поназывали места.

Как и Маршака, "Жила была девочка, как ее звали? Кто звал, тот и знал."
