What does giving your name have to do with self-incrimination ???

According the the Hiibel brief, it may mean that if they can identify you as a repeat offender then you may get a longer sentence therefore it is up to the prosecuter to identify the person.

If someone is a repeat offender, then it is even more important that the cops know who you are, for the sake of public and personal safety. Using the briefs logic, nobody would ever get arrested - the prosecutor's, in a hiring boon to the lawyer industry, would be required to ride along with all police cars. Yeah, I can see it now - One officer to another "Hey Bill, I had to put our squad car back in the motor pool and get a temporary one, because we needed an oil change, tire rotation, and a new prosecutor"
