If the defendant shall give no other name, the court may proceed accordingly; if the defendant shall allege that another name is the true name, the court shall direct an entry thereof in the minutes of the arraignment, and the subsequent proceedings may be had against the defendant by that name, referring also to the name by which the defendant was indicted.
