I don't find this wording particularly useful. What does it mean? The
imaginary double quotes are stripped off?
The advantage of using the shell tools is that you are not affected by
the oddities of SQL syntax, so don't introduce references to SQL syntax
where it doesn't need to be. Just say, the names are used as is. Or
just say nothing, because nothing happens.

What kind of quoting might be required?
