    Actually, it may be possible, and not too bad if we assume the Hashtable is 
immutable. Something like this:
    
    ```java
    public class HashtableWrapper extends Hashtable<String, String> {
    
        private final Map<String, String> backingMap;
        private final String name;
    
        public HashtableWrapper(Map<String, String> backingMap, String name) {
            super(1);
            this.backingMap = backingMap;
            this.name = name;
        }
    
        @Override
        public synchronized V get(Object key) {
            if ("name".equals(key)) {
                return name;
            } else {
                return backingMap.get(key);
            }
        }
    
        @Override
        public synchronized String put(String  key, String  value) {
            throw new UnsupportedOperationException("immutable hashtable");
        }
    
        // wrappers for Iterator to Enumeration
    
        @Override
        public synchronized Enumeration<String> keys() {
            return new IteratorToEnumeration(backingMap.keySet());
        }
    
        @Override
        public synchronized Enumeration<String> elements() {
            return new IteratorToEnumeration(backingMap.valueSet());
        }
    
        // and so on ...
    }
    ```
