Abstract
Names are powerful symbols which contribute to internal and external perceptions of an individual or institution. This paper discusses the names given to Regional Secure Units established following the Butler Report, and discusses some of the reasons underlying the choice of name. Understanding the derivation of names can assist understanding of the development of forensic psychiatry as a separate specialty and awareness of its history.
