囧研究：名字也会影响职场升迁
<p>最近发布的一项调查报告显示，八分之一的年轻人担心他们的名字会成为找工作或者继续攀登职业高峰的绊脚石。调查发现，拥有约翰、雷切尔等传统名字的人在职场中比拥有如韦恩、凯蕾等现代名字的人更有优势。参与调查的600多名20岁至35岁之间的职员认为，取名相对传统的同事，特别是马克、雷切尔等来源于《圣经》的名字，更加受到老板的青睐。该调查机构发言人还指出，我们第一次见到某个人时，会不自觉地按名字把他们归类。另外，他们还发现姓名在不同行业的影响程度也有不同，法律和保险这种传统行业对现代名字的容忍度较低，而销售和市场这种新兴行业则对现代名字相对更加包容。2011年英国最受家长欢迎的女孩名字是艾米莉亚、奥莉维亚、莉莉、杰西卡和艾米丽；最受欢迎的前五个男孩名字为哈利、奥利弗、杰克、阿尔菲和查理。</p><p><span word="If">If</span> <span word="you">you</span>’<span word="ve">ve</span> <span word="done">done</span> <span word="your">your</span> <span word="research">research</span> <span word="and">and</span> <span word="laid">laid</span> <span word="out">out</span> <span word="your">your</span> <span word="smartest">smartest</span> <span word="clothes">clothes</span>, <span word="you">you</span> <span word="might">might</span> <span word="think">think</span> <span word="you">you</span>’<span word="re">re</span> <span word="ready">ready</span> <span word="for">for</span> <span word="your">your</span> <span word="job">job</span> <span word="interview">interview</span>.</p><p><span word="But">But</span> <span word="one">one</span> <span word="detail">detail</span> <span word="that">that</span>’<span word="s">s</span> <span word="a">a</span> <span word="little">little</span> <span word="more">more</span> <span word="out">out</span> <span word="of">of</span> <span word="your">your</span> <span word="control">control</span> <span word="could">could</span> <span word="still">still</span> <span word="be">be</span> <span word="holding">holding</span> <span word="you">you</span> <span word="back">back</span>.</p><p><span word="One">One</span> <span word="in">in</span> <span word="eight">eight</span> <span word="young">young</span> <span word="workers">workers</span> <span word="fear">fear</span> <span word="their">their</span> <span word="name">name</span> <span word="stops">stops</span> <span word="them">them</span> <span word="from">from</span> <span word="climbing">climbing</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="career">career</span> <span word="ladder">ladder</span> – <span word="or">or</span> <span word="even">even</span> <span word="getting">getting</span> <span word="a">a</span> <span word="job">job</span> <span word="in">in</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="first">first</span> <span word="place">place</span>, <span word="a">a</span> <span word="report">report</span> <span word="has">has</span> <span word="revealed">revealed</span>.</p><p><span word="It">It</span> <span word="showed">showed</span> <span word="people">people</span> <span word="with">with</span> ‘<span word="modern">modern</span>’ <span word="names">names</span> <span word="such">such</span> <span word="as">as</span> <span word="Wayne">Wayne</span> <span word="and">and</span> <span word="Kayleigh">Kayleigh</span> <span word="were">were</span> <span word="losing">losing</span> <span word="out">out</span> <span word="to">to</span> <span word="those">those</span> <span word="with">with</span> <span word="conventional">conventional</span> <span word="ones">ones</span> <span word="such">such</span> <span word="as">as</span> <span word="John">John</span> <span word="and">and</span> <span word="Rachel">Rachel</span>.</p>
