shame

"In The Book of Laughter and Forgetting, Milan Kundera implies he feels ashamed at having to name his characters [...] what could be more vulgar than to arbitrarily give- from a childish desire for verisimilitude or, at best mere convenience- an invented name to an invented character?" 
- Laurent Binet, HHhH
