name game

a name game is when one lists several names to his or her friend or acquaintance. The object of the "game" is to discover who it is that the friend or the acquaintance will not name.

John Smith has a crush on someone, so Jane Doe uses the name game and asks him "Is it Sally? What about Michelle? Martha?" to discover who it is that John Smith has a crush on.
