What's in a name? In this first part of their Inaugural Address, Hanna Reichel reflects on the power of naming in constituting relation and identity, bestowing honor and obligation, binding and empowering. This prepares the ground to probe, what does it mean to carry forward the name of a tradition, such as the Reformed one? In what sense might one call oneself "Reformed"? Reichel sketches three different, yet intertwined approaches to giving such an account: a historical, a dogmatic, and a dispositional one, only to find that all three of them reorient the responder away from themselves and to the name of Jesus Christ
