No one can cast spells or activate abilities between the time a card is named and the time that Meddling Mage's ability starts to work. |

Spells with the chosen name that somehow happen to already be on the stack when Meddling Mage enters the battlefield are not affected by Meddling Mage's ability. |

Although the named card can't be cast, it can still be put onto the battlefield by a spell or ability (if it's a permanent card). |
| 5/1/2009 |
If you want to name a split card, you must name both halves of it (for example, "Boom // Bust"). Neither side of that split card (Boom or Bust) can be cast. |

If a card with morph is named, that card may still be cast face down. Face-down cards have no names. |

Once Meddling Mage leaves the battlefield, the named card can be cast again. |
