Some persons consider their name were crucial for the following reasons. First of all, a good name represents a good image. For example, if your name is Lin xiaohuang, you cant tolerate friends calling you xiao huang as a dogs name usually. If you are a well-known companys CEO at 50, you wont be ridiculed by your subordinates for your name. Second, a good name is representative of expectations from your parents. For instance, your parents may hope you have a very happy life in the future if they named you lele. On the other hand, other people dont mind what they are named. They feel that their names are just a simple code like a, b or c and lack of extra significance. In history, some people had made great contribution to human society even if they have common names. In my point of view, a name is not important. Even if we have dissatisfied names, we can change our names after growing up. In the foreign-invested companies, colleagues call each other English names. Hence, you can choose a perfect name for yourself. |
