Do you subconsciously notice nurturing qualities more readily in someone who has the same name or middle name as your mother?

Do you treat people more nicely who have the same name as your mother? I find that I get extra warm and gushy feelings when someone has the same name or middle name as my mom, especially when they seem to be just as nurturing as she is, and so I wind up cutting them more slack than I would other people.

No. I don't think I would project anything onto them just because they had the same name. But I'd probably tell them that my mom had the same name. I'd be nice to them if they were nice.

Thanks for the MHO, Bethany.

Have a merry Christmas! :-)

[Bethany22]

Thanks, you too!

[Sixgunsound]

If anything I would be subconsciously biased against people who remind me of my mother.

[Sixgunsound]

Thanks for MHO

[NathanDavis]

no, I do not do that with my mother's name...

but there is one other name... Amanda, all Amandas I've ever met have always been great people, lol

my mother's name is a very popular one as well, so I am more than used to see it everywhere and all the time

[Bethany22]

I've always liked the name Amanda!

[NathanDavis]

it is a very nice sounding name by itself, yes (=

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

Yes, some people with the middle name as mine as well as my late moms I treat them better cause it makes me think of her my moms middle name is Lee and so is mine so that makes me feel better inside also some people make me think of my late mom when their first name is Donna it does the same with me, but I had a great mom she passed away too young, at age 58.

Actually I have liked girls with name ending in a or Ra in there name. Like my first crush was Diana, second was Olga, Fatma, third was Zara, forth was Sara (lover), Keinat and Jenat.

So, Ra and at is for me. But I don't think it is anything more than a coincidence 🤣

I suppose maybe? People can’t choose their names unless they get them changed legally though. But for some reason I do notice characteristics with people or the same name.

Karen being one example lol

[SnowedIn]

I do not. I notice that their name might be the same as mom's but nothing else gets afforded them for it.

This was an awesome and fascinating question.

[UrAnus89]

I find that I want to date certain names, in a certain order, if that's what you mean

[AnUglyBarnacle]

I don't think so? Or, at least I've never noticed.

[NightmarePanda]

I haven't, but I haven't really met any women in the US with the same name as my mom. She's the only person I know with the name Marit.

[Bklynbadboy12]

Nope not at all I noticed those qualities in people who has those qualities it has nothing to do with there name

[nawtee_me]

not really, I try not to compare people so dame names does not trigger responses like that.

[collie22]

That would put me off

[himanshupropliners]

[fonduegirl]

[pizzalovershouse]

[Debbie14217]
