Why cephalopod? Why nameless?

Why cephalopod? Well, the reason for that is simple. Squid rock. They're smart, they have tentacles and they can change the colour of their skin. What more could you want?

Why nameless is a bit more tricky. Obviously, I have a name. Unfortunately, it's a rather common name, and so to deal with the number of people sharing it amongst my friends, we all gained prefixes. Mine was nameless, and as a name, it's kind of stuck.
