Euskal esaera zaharrak dioenez, izena duenak izana ere badu, eta hala uste du Anjel Lertxundik, erreparatzen baldin badiegu bere eleberrietako pertsonaien izenak hautatzerakoan erabiltzen dituen irizpideei. Gainerako literatura hautuetan bezala, Lertxundik gogoeta sakon baten ondorioz ematen die bere pertsonaiei honako edo horrako izena. Eta, txit eskuzabala denez, idazte prozesu horren berri zehatza ematen digu bere saiakera, hitzaldi eta prentsa-zutabeetan, bai eta, gure kasuan bezala, harekin aurrez aurre gaudenean ere.1 Iturri horietatik guztietatik ateratakoak dira hemen aletzen ditugun datu eta ondorioak.
A Basque proverb literally says, «he who/that which has a name also has a being». This is literally advocated by Anjel Lertxundi, if bearing in mind the criteria used by this Basque writer when it comes to naming characters. As is the case with the rest of literary choices, Lertxundi provides his characters with a specific name only after a deep reflection. As a sign of his generosity, Lertxundi gives a detailed account of this particular writing process in his essays, lectures and press columns. These are valuable sources for the data and conclusions that will be fully explained throughout the article.
