A new piece for #FutureNatures where I think about Ursula Le Guin's story 'She Unnames Them' and other themes of naming and renaming in Le Guin's work. It's about the naming process involved in natural science, and how that differs from the way people name things in every day life. And it's about who has the power to name stuff and who might decide to unname and rename it.
