Summary/Abstract: The name has a dynamic content with Eliade and Tournier; the analysis we are taking hereinafter shows that the two writers use it metaphysically, fitting their characters into the othological project of finding their lost authenticity through the activation of the live, creative power of the primordial Logos. To name correctly means to call to authentic existence. The name means essence, existence principle; it is the one creating the being it names, inscribing it into evolution, an initiating act by excellence.
