How do you call a boat so it will float?

More and more parents want to return to the past, regretting what name they gave to the child under the influence of various reasons, writes Sarah Picocell on the website of the newspaper La Repubblica

"It would seem that choosing a name is a matter of taste parents, but we are not talking about spontaneous choice, " the article reads in translation "InoPressa"- Scientists have repeatedly confirmed this fact, and it is not surprising that after registration of the birth certificate some parents repent. We really wanted to name the baby? Or enveloped us mania to be original? "


More and more parents realize that they gave their child the awkward name. About 8% of parents regret that the name is too common or too original. "Parents do not consider how rapidly changing fashion at the children's names, and what initially seemed original, is too trivial. Parents often regret that followed the advice of others or yielded to family pressure," says psychologist Redmond of Satran.




"According to the Italian Institute of statistics, in the period 2004-2009 the most common names for babies were Francesco and Giulia, in 2010 the competition was intercepted Sofia. Italy is a country where people love tradition. Alessandro, Andrea, Lorenzo, Matteo, Maria for boys choose the names of saints, and the girls called GA, Martin, Aurora, Alice, Emma, and Anna - names associated with the world of music, literature, sacred texts," writes journalist.




"We used to say "my name is," writes psychologist Maurizio Brasini, but in fact the so-called us other: someone, usually a mom and dad chose the name for us at birth, and we learn to identify ourselves with this name. To complete the picture, it should be noted that names always have a meaning, not only in the etymological sense, and in that each carries a story associated with origin, and probably with destiny". The name is like a prologue to the novel, which tells our story. But it is impossible to predict how each of us interacts with his name. I like to imagine that each cat from the poems of Eliot, has three names: the first he gave the hosts, the second is the fact that you know in the company of cats, and the third is his real name, the root of his cat-like creatures. To know this is the last name - the work of a lifetime, says the author of the article.
