This exploration is intended as a cornerstone for subsequent inquiries into objects that hybridize these types of personal names, such as the literary device of autofiction. The central hypothesis is that the legal, sociological, and philosophical functions of the authorial and the civil (or social-legal) name are broadly analogous—contrary to Foucault’s (2010) well-known postulates—whereas fictional names present a difference of function (Orlando, 2008, 2013, 2014, 2017, 2021), though not of nature. The aim of this study is to clarify the respective statutes of each type of name, in order to better trace the fluid transactions that sometimes occur between extra-textual (civil-factual) nominal positions, authorial ones bordering on discourse (Foucault, 2010), and diegetic ones at the very core of the text. En este artículo se exploran las continuidades entre el nombre civil y autoral (en su faceta legal, sociológica y filosófica) y el índice de diferencia filosófico-pragmático del nombre ficcional. Esta exploración puede oficiar de piedra angular para posteriores indagaciones sobre objetos que hibridan los tipos de nombres personales a ellos asociados, como por ejemplo el dispositivo literario de la autoficción. La hipótesis de este trabajo es que el funcionamiento legal, sociológico y filosófico del nombre autoral y el nombre social-legal (o civil) son a grandes rasgos —y a contracorriente de los postulados de Foucault (2010)— análogos; mientras que los nombres ficcionales poseen un índice de diferencia funcional (Orlando, 2008, 2013, 2014, 2017, 2021), aunque no de naturaleza. Lo que busca este trabajo es proveer instancias de esclarecimiento de los estatutos de cada nombre en función de poder rastrear mejor lo que sucede en las transacciones fluidas que en ocasiones ocurren entre posiciones nominales extratextuales (civiles-factuales), las autorales limítrofes al discurso (Foucault, 2010) y las diegéticas, dentro del corazón del texto.

This article explores the continuities between the civil and authorial name—understood in their legal, sociological, and philosophical dimensions—and the philosophical-pragmatic differential index of the fictional name. This exploration is intended as a cornerstone for subsequent inquiries into objects that hybridize these types of personal names, such as the literary device of autofiction. The central hypothesis is that the legal, sociological, and philosophical functions of the authorial and the civil (or social-legal) name are broadly analogous—contrary to Foucault’s (2010) well-known postulates—whereas fictional names present a difference of function (Orlando, 2008, 2013, 2014, 2017, 2021), though not of nature.
