    Why not NAMED-CONS, NAMED-VECTOR, NAMED-+, NAMED-READ-CHAR,
    NAMED-CALL-WITH-CURRENT-CONTINUATION, NAMED-WITH-INPUT-FILE, etc.?

Come on, now.  These objects have no good reason to have names
for themselves since they could use them in no way that I can see.
The case is obviously different for procedures.
