"My Name Is Love" comes from Fresh Wine for the Horses, the 2005 solo debut by Rob Dickinson, the English singer-songwriter who had spent his band years in Catherine Wheel. The album gathered songs he'd written back then that never made it onto any official release, alongside newer ones written after the band broke up in 2000, and this one is his alone, words and music.

It's close to a two-man job. Dickinson sings and plays acoustic and electric guitar and organ, David Rolfe covers bass, piano, guitar and percussion, and the pair produced and recorded it themselves before handing it to Ross Hogarth to mix. Critics split on the album, but longtime Catherine Wheel fans embraced it, and Dickinson took it out on a tour of small rooms across the US and Canada, playing stripped-down acoustic sets.
