What's In A Name?

The Epic of Gilgamesh paints an immaculate picture of the struggle between human desire and the love for those who mean something to us. Gilgamesh seems so caught up in his want for immortality, but he also struggles with the context of his relationship with Enkidu. What at first seems like an awkward relationship, turns into a humongous bromance of epic proportions (pun intended). He struggles with the fact that after Enkidu dies, he could suffer the same defeat. While he is torn by Enkidu's death, he has a greater conflict with himself about how to continue his legacy even after he is gone. He feels that the only way to achieve greatness and make his name known is to go on living and conquer quests, but fails to realize the affect of his conquers even after he is dead. I wonder how Gilgamesh would've acted had the option of immortality never been presented.
