The Boy without a Name by Idries Shah
The day a boy is born, his parents are visited by a wise man who says, This is a very, very important boy, and I'm going to give him something marvelous one day, but I will have to give him his name first. So please don't give him a name yet. So, they name him Benaam, which means Nameless. The story tells how the boy seeks, and eventually finds his own name - and also gives away an old dream he doesn't want - for a wonderful new dream.
