As we talked about the name’s significance and about names as labels, we can mention that names can also be an indicator of a group or culture someone comes from. For example, a child named Washington will be coming from a specific social group in America and people will be able to identify his origins based on the name.<\/p>\n

<\/span>Names as illustrations of one culture<\/span><\/h2>\n

Another best example is the name Sasha, which is an East European Name, namely from Russia. Of course, we agree with that and even if we meet this girl called Sasha in the United States, we will know she has Russian origins, or her parents love the Russian culture.<\/p>\n

<\/span>Choose a popular name to have success<\/span><\/h2>\n

There is another tendency in choosing names and this is to be looking for popular names. Why? This is very simple. People associate some names with success and hope that choosing a popular name will help their children have success in life. So, this is why they would be proud to call a little girl Beyonce or Hilary, as some popular stars have this name.<\/p>\n

Even if it is nice to have a name specific to our culture, we are not against being open and embrace other names. This is actually really happening lately and parents choose all types of names from cultures all over the world showing the power of intercultural practices.<\/p>\n

We should be very attentive to the name we choose for our children or the children of our friends or relatives. This is available advice for parents in America or in Europe. What we should always keep in mind is that our names can shape our identity and future and that we should be proud to “wear” a name we are given. Life will be happier with a name that we love so this is a beautiful gift we can make to our children or little nephews. \u00a0This is a beautiful gift we can easily make for each baby.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
