Odysseus' pride would not allow him to keep his real identity a secret from the Cyclops. However the Cyclops is the son of Poseidon who hates Odysseus as it is. By telling the Cyclops his real name, Odysseus ultimately reveals himself to Poseidon. The Cyclops tells Poseidon who hurt him and Poseidon plagues the rest of Odysseus' journey. Had his pride not gotten in the way, Odysseus would have been home years before.
