No one said he baptized in his own name.

Bro Epley, can you read your two posts above. They were directed at me. I don't know why since I did not say anything about a self baptism or about baptising in the name of the one being baptized. You said "the argument is absurd", but I did not even make that argument

Sorry I misread you. The argument has been made here. The argument is absurd that is why you didn't make it.
