The nominalist position is that names and that which they name have no innate connection – that the universe is itself nameless, and that names only exist as interpreted by sentient observers.
Perhaps the »nameless forest« section of Lewis Carroll's »Through the Looking Glass« serves as a decent demonstration of the nominalist principle.
Modern logicians have largely adopted the nominalist position.

Language is based on the illusion of immutability. That things have an unchanging essence expressed by our words for them. Plato knew this.

The value of language depends, as does fire, on the way it is used.
