This article aims at scrutinizing the existing critical literature on four points which can help in understanding and assigning a date to Llull’s Hundred Names of God: 1) Llull’s use of the signature as a necessary tool of self-promotion outside the Crown of Aragon’s territories; 2) Llull’s use of self-references as a tool for dating the work; 3) how it is allowed to sing Llull’s Hundred Names and finally 4) an external comparison of Llull’s divine names with the ones of four Islamic authorial sources and an internal comparison of Llull’s Hundred Names of God with his Hundred Forms, of which the former could be the original matrix.
