What it means

Our interpretation.

Saying his name is an attempt to connect across a loss only he remembers. The ordinary introduction becomes both grief and the possibility of starting again.

After the final confrontation with Pucci, Emporio reaches a changed world and meets Irene and her companions. They do not share his memories, and his introduction breaks into tears. Chapter 158 becomes Stone Ocean episode 38; the full delivery hesitates and repeats his name, while the card preserves the short introduction.
