When the Cyclops Polyphemus asks for his name, Odysseus cunningly responds that his name is "Nobody." This clever ruse allows him to avoid direct identification, as when he later blinds Polyphemus and the Cyclops calls for help, he tells others that "Nobody" is hurting him, leading them to believe that there is no threat. This tactic highlights Odysseus's intelligence and resourcefulness in overcoming challenges.
