Someone told me that our name somehow affects our personality.
I am not sure if it is true to everybody but for others maybe.
Remember that in every rule , there is an exemption....
I named my youngest son Hans Schanni.
I got the name Hans from a scientist.
And Schanni is the son of the waltz composer Johann Strauss who at the age of seven already compose songs.
Now, my son really excel in Science and he really loves music. He is a member of their school band. He plays bass guitar and he is also a good singer.
My youngest daughter's name is Sashawnee. I got it from the production staff of one of the movies I watched when I was pregnant with her. i just can't remember the title of the movie. Actually, it is Shashawnee Hall but I changed it to Sashawnee because it is difficult to pronounce.
My daughter is also artistic, can easily think ideas about commercials and really loves movies...
What can you say about this????

I think your likes have to do with what your children like and also what you chose to name them. However, I have had students with certain names that are all trouble-- I would never name a kid Matthew because all the Matthews I taught were little pests, but I would happily name a girl Mariko because all the Marikos I have taught have been little angels.

Nope. I don`t believe that our name has a reflection with our personality as it was given to us by parents who happened to named it by their own choice and not our personality

@magallon Yes but I think it`s just a luck that somehow got the name right for their personality.

Yes, parents' role will affect their children. Parents are models for their children. If you like music, your children will as long as they are exposed to it during their growth. That's my thought only.

@yanzalong If the parents give names that are not pleasing to the ears, their child will suffer for his life. He will be teased or bullied because of his name.

we were named to follow the first initials of our parent's names so it's really based on what they fancied.

I don't think that your name can have an effect on your personality. But it is an interesting concept to look into. :)

Parents should think ahead before naming their children. Someone I know was bullied before, because of his name and often involved in a fight because of it. He was bullied because he has a name for old people so they say, he was named after his grandfather "Perfecto". The bullies would say " Nobody is perfect except Perfecto" then they would make fun of him.
