the cyclops was intimidating to odysseus at first. Yet, the cyclops was kind until Odysseus took advantage of him and blinded him....to get to the point.. the cyclops was an idiot and was kind and welcoming to Odysseus who told him his name was nobody so when asked who blinded him, the cyclops replied nobody
Polyphemus hadn't known that it was Odysseus in his house. Odysseus had lied and told Polyphemus (the cyclops) that his name was Nobody. Odysseus and his crew had also blinded Polyphemus.
This was due to Odysseus being very clever. When the Cyclops asked Odysseus what his name was - he stated that his name sounded like "nobody" so when the Cyclops' brothers asked him who blinded him he replied: "Nobody blinded me."
