Funny, you ask that.....I guess its named that to mentally make alcoholics think that no one is going to find out. The reason for the introduction in the meeting is first you are admitting to yourself and others with introducing yourself and hearing your own name by "you" that you are admitting that you are in fact with out a doubt admitting to the disease....my mom was an alcoholic...now she is gone..

Congratulations Bob...You just have made many friends here today and on your road to sobriety. Your road will be a long one and nobody will know about your being a loser unless we tell on you. Is that how your first meeting went Bob (winky-winky)

Because it meets in small groups around the world, and although it has a central communication office, each group is essentially anonymous.

Because you don't say "my name is bob johnson", and because it is a mutual agreement between atendees to not go around running their mouths about who they see at meetings...

because its only for alcoholics and to everyone else it should be anonymous
