Name of icon disappeared

The title for the Icons on my display has vanished. It usually  was showing just below the icon. What did I do to eliminate this convenient feature. I liked having it. eature. How do I restore the names to appear below the icons?

This is my first posting in this "new format" I apologize for any  oversights in the usual procedure.

My OS is Windows XP.

    If Thumbnails of file names don't appear

    select another view e.g. List or Details  hold down the Shift as you switch to either Filmstrip or Thumbnails on the View Menu. the name should reappear.

    Have you tried right clicking on the icon and choosing 'Rename'? That will give you a chance to give the icon a name.
