File Manager manual page 4:
" You identify a volume by its *volume name*, which consists of any sequence of 1 to 27 printing characters. Volume names must always be followed by a colon 
(:)...".
 
So, it seems not to be impossible to deduce this from Inside Macintosh.
(Perhaps they should print "Don't Panic" on the cover in large friendly
letters and make it slightly cheaper...)
