Exegesis
The participial clause echon onoma gegrammenon {ἔχων ὄνομα γεγραμμένον | échōn ónoma gegramménon} ‘having a name inscribed’ further describes the subject, which is then limited by the relative clause ho oudeis oiden ei me autos {ὃ οὐδεὶς οἶδεν εἰ μὴ αὐτός | hó oudeîs oîden eí mē autós} ‘which no one knows except Himself’, with the perfect tense expressing settled exclusive knowledge.
In context — Revelation 19:12
But His eyes are a flame of fire, and many crowns rest upon His head; and He has an inscribed name that no one knows except Himself.
