Files starting with a dash

[Erich Schroeder <erich@museum.state.il.us>]

A long time ago some one built a portion of a web site and used file names 
that start with a dash "-". I can't get them renamed now. I've tried 

mv \-name.htm name.htm
mv "-name.htm" name.htm
mv '-name.htm" name.htm
mv `-name.htm` name.htm

and the same thing in cp. Each command thinks that the -n is an option. 
This must be a FAQ, but I can't find it.
