A particularity of the cats of the Night Garden is their belief in the power of names.
A spirit's power in death is directly tied to how its name is remembered. Thus, cats who did great good are told many stories of and their names are chanted as mantras. However, cats who hurt others in life have their names stricken from their stories, and are only referred to as "Nameless".
Furthermore, this is sometimes extended to cats who are still alive- for example, Mantis, whose mother was neglectful, refuses to use her mother's name, though it is likely she is still alive and well.
