Among the Gavião Pyhcop catiji, Jê people classified among the Eastern Timbira (NIMUENDAJU, 1949) who currently live in the Amazonia maranhense, personal names create social relations to individuals from birth. The same names bind them to the ceremonial sphere through halves and ceremonial groups, which in turn possess ritual prerogatives that imply in body decoration. This thesis deals with the gavião name in two moments of the same process: one when the name is constituent of the relationships that constitute people and moral values through the transmission of names, the other when the name is also "clothing", skin that covers the surface of the body in the ceremonial context and has the capacity to produce and transform the gavião bodies and cosmos. I tried to identify the transactions with other indians (me hẽeh - me, pron.plural people + hẽeh; s.carne) and with foreigners from different matrices, especially wild animals (pryyhre), with which the Wyty ritual enables Gavião to create affinities necessary to thrive in this attempt to produce names and bodies.
