Mentioning your name in an essay?

So when they read an essay they know exactly whose it is already (e.g. “John Doe” vs applicant #3243) ? If that is the case then I should have no problem adding my name, correct?

I was just worried that the essays could be looked at separately from the rest of the application and given a score, and later, they would be attached back to the main file (as Wesleyan did in the book “The Gatekeepers”).
