C ++ pointer names

Question

I understand that pointers are used to point to objects, so in a program you have to be the same. But there were also how the names of the pointers are stored. It would be redundant to declare a pointer name that takes up more resources than the object it points to, for example:

int intOne = 0;
int *this_pointer_is_pointing_towards_intOne = &intOne;

I know this is a ridiculous example, but I was just trying to understand this idea.

Edit: The name of the pointer should be stored somewhere, occupying more bytes than the address of the object indicated on the object.

Answer 1

The length of the variable name does not affect the size of your program, but simply the time it takes to write the program.
