"If I name it, can I have it?"
Is this sentence wrong?

Is "name" weird?

Should "say" be put instead of "name"?

Thanks in advance..:)

Answer

for example: if you found a cat without a name, then, if you name it you can have it.

another example: if you want to do something out of names, you should use (say)
if you say it, you can have it. it means that you can have whatever you speak.
if i speak/say it , can i have it?

Answer

If I name it, can I have it? Now I want a pizza.

Answer

The sentence is fine. But whether using 'name' is "weird" or not would depend on the context. Can you describe the context?
