A Rose By Any Other Name

Anonymous has left a new comment on your post "A Silk Purse Out Of A Sow's Ear? Nah!":

Now you're resorting to name-calling? Who got a lump of coal in their stocking?

***********
And who was called a name? Who dat? What name ?
If no identifiable being is there, how can they be called  by a name?

"Nincompoop!!!!!!"  they say.

But I did not say.
I said  the word "Nincompoopery"

It describes an  argument. Not a person.

    In order to say something that is pigeon-holed as Nincompoopery, it can be said that the person that said it is a Nincompoop.
