Back when Finder 4.1 came out, a font called Taliesin came with it.
This font is numbered 24, and in fact Inside Mac even has a predefined
constant in the Font Manager section "taliesin" with value 24.  When
I got my ROM upgrade + 800K internal drive, a little manual came with
it.  Lo and behold, there is a picture in there with a font called Mobile
being displayed that looks a lot like Taliesin.  ResEdit reveals that
Mobile, too, is font number 24.

So, what is the "real" name of this font?  Why the two name?
