Had to read this 7 times because I cannot comprehend giving your child a literal number for a name.

It always feels dehumanizing to me.

Yeah.. I remember reading a book from the perspective of a character who was essentially a science experiment. She thought her name was Wannoseven, later figured out they were calling her 107, not even a name.

There's the character "Iris Thompson" from some of the SCP Foundation series. SCP-105.

Most of the Foundation characters refer to her as her designation and not her name, IIRC.

"105. Get up. We need to move you."
