A (first) name is a proper name that is given to a child at birth and traditionally placed before the surname in Western Culture. This name (you may also have other middle names) distinguishes someone from others with the same surname within the family. However it is not unusual for children to be named after family members and the new child may therefore be given the title Junior or Jr. (Which often lapses later in life)

The rules for giving a first name vary widely by culture and subculture. This includes whether or not the child will be given a family name or whether they need to have a saint or faith name included. Research shows that the choice of first name can also be related to education and income levels.

Finally a first name can be rejected if is it considered to be inappropriate. Think abusive words, symbols, a name that consists of too many names, trademarks or is too long. Whilst the rules differ per country it is unusual to have a surname used as a first name in many countries unless it already exists as a first name.

The choice of first name often depends on the mother tongue, religion and gender of the child. There are however, a number of other influential factors such as traditions, (be they family, national or regional.) A name can be given because the parents believe it has the most appropriate ‘meaning’, or suits the appearance or describes the characteristics of the child. It may also suit the wishes or expectations of their parents for them. It may even be part of a political or ideological program.

In many Asian and African Cultures it is the family name that is used first and then the ‘first’ (individual) name, so in this case the term ‘first name’ does not really fit with these naming systems.

There are also cultures in which the name has a different function. In Indonesia, for example, the last name is not necessarily a family surname: A child can be given the surname other than that of its parent.

First Name Analysis

The Energy In Your Name

The power of a name and its value has long been immortalized in prose, poetry, and religious ceremony. Everyone recognizes himself or herself by name.

The question is: What does my name mean and how does a name influence a person's character?

Let us consider what a name is. It is the grouping of several letters of an alphabet, or other symbols, which represent the identification of a person or an object.

The one thing which separates human beings from the animal kingdom is human mind, which has the ability to reason on a conscious level. To think consciously, one must use language. This point is not generally appreciated but it is vitally important. It is impossible to think without language. What allows language to serve in this manner? In the case of languages which have alphabets, letters are placed in a definite sequence in the alphabet, i.e., in the English alphabet, "A" is always in the first position, "B" in the second position, and so on. Any alphabet is an alphabet because symbols are recognized by their form or sound in a definite order--change the order and confusion results.

There is more than just sound and alphabetical symbols to language. What is it that language expresses? Is it not intelligence? Is not intelligence a mental power? Do we not learn through education--using language--to develop intelligence, which is recognized as mental growth and the individuality of the personal mind?

The link between human intelligence, mind, language, and the order of the letters in the alphabet is the key to measuring human mind and solving the major problem of mental discord and imbalance.
