You can call me Puppy, or you can call me Sweetybuns.

你可以叫我小狗，或者叫我小圆面包。

   You can call me Glasscake, Cromagnonpoops, or Pigeonselter . . .

你可以叫我玻璃蛋糕、克罗马农便便，或者鸽子笼……

   You could even just click your tongue twice whenever we

你甚至可以在我们四目相交时轻轻碰两下嘴唇——

catch eyes—

啊，无论距离多远……

   ah, from no matter how far away . . .

但无论你选择什么名字（咕唧咕也可以），

   but whatever it is you choose to call me (Coochy-Coo would

请知道我都可以接受，

do)

这些名字会在我内心涌动的愚蠢兴奋下，突然获得共性……

那个名字是我的，是的，比我的本名更重要，

   and all these names will become uniform, suddenly, under

因为我心爱的人给了我这个名字……

this dumb excitement always welling up inside me . . .

再次被命名，这次是正确的名字，我用这个名字欺骗自己

   That name is mine, yes, more so than my given name,

我为它已经等待多年……

   because the one I adore gave it to me . . .

（多么，多么傻的男人。）

   To be named again, correctly this time, with this name I
