Odysseus told Polyphemus that his name was "Noman" to deceive the Cyclops and ensure that when he injured him, Polyphemus would call for help by saying that "Noman" was attacking him. This clever trick prevented the other Cyclopes from coming to Polyphemus's aid, as they believed he was simply afflicted by some unseen force.
