Correct answers (check both):

- That the names of things do not affect what they are.
- That Romeo's name does not change the essence of who he is or her love for him.

Explanation: Juliet is saying a name is just a label — calling a rose something else wouldn't change its scent, just as Romeo's name (Montague) doesn't change who he is or her feelings.
