The story of the Cyclops can be found in the Odyssey, book 9 (in the Cyclopeia). The name Nobody can be found in five different lines of Chapter 9 . First of all in line 366: </P> <P> "Cyclops, you asked my noble name, and I will tell it; but do you give the stranger's gift, just as you promised . My name is Nobody . Nobody I am called by mother, father, and by all my comrades ." </P>
