According to a study, people who like their name feel happier. Do you like your name?

What do you think about your name, do you like it?

[jennifer_bloom]

I have a mixed opinion about my name cause my real name is typically used by males so I feel masculine when somebody with a rough voice says my name. I also feel alienated because my name is not Western or European in real life so I feel like I'm being stereotyped as the cultural outsider. Another thing I don't like is that most of the people who try to be my friend have a Chinese fetish and only like me cause they expect and think I will act like a stereotypical Chinese women. They see my race and not who I am as a person, and I can't live up to the Chinese stereotype, I wasn't raised to be meek and skinny, cause my dad would cook lasagna and never caesar salad. I would ask him to make cabbage soup but he would make ramen noodles cause he wanted to save money: he makes more money then a psychiatrist but is more stingy than a chipmunk.

I've learned to love my name.

It's an old Icelandic name, that's rarely used even there - wasn't that fond of it growing up except for the fact that I was named after my grandmother.

Then I migrated to Denmark and Danes can not roll their R's proberly even if their lives depended on it. Or most. Which means I started to hate my name since only few could pronounce it correctly - it's so bad that I don't pronounce it correctly when introducing myself or respond to it pronounced correctly. But I'm taking my name back, I introduce myself correctly and refuse to give people a out by saying it "in Danish" .

[snackthatsmilesback]

I don't like my first name, it's common and doesn't mean anything. But my last name I do like. So I go by that instead.

[tfan1]

No. My dad named me after his best friend’s name. But then my mother put an extra twist on it and I hate it.

[Apple1996]

Yeah I'm pretty happy with my name

[scooogy]

@Apple1996 Dennis, right? 🧐❤️

[Apple1996]

@scooogy haha nah I think you know my real name

[OlderAndWiser]

OlderAndWIser sounds good to me!

[xoxosilentgirl]

i used to hate my name until i move to Europe. So my first name is just fine, common name. But what i hate the most is when its combined with my last name, its too common and everybody has that name combination and it’s annoying. Not to mention the reason why my parent choose the name, not too good. And when i move to Europe, my name isn’t common at all, and the im the only one who got last name like this in my uni. Ngl its fun to watch people mispronounce my name lol.

[WonderBell99]

I like my name, both my first and middle name. They go well with my last name, but when I was in high school, some folks used to laugh at my name because, apparently, it was too "weird".

I don't care though, I love it. There are probably around 5 people in the world with my name, it's that rare.

[menina]

I ABSOLUTELY HATE my name! It doesn't suit me, it's too common where I live. It can also be offensive. My middle name is awful as well.

I would change it but it would be too complicated and expensive.

[sarahsmith1]

I actually have a hate love relationship with my name. I find my name quite boring, but the reason why i could possibly love my name because i have a red cheeks (meaning of my name).

[DesiUwU]

My name is Desire Rose. My mother was a stripper. sometimes i think my name is pretty, other times, not so much

[Paul_in_Indy]

I have a little cousin (functionally, a niece) named Gypsee Rose. She is, similarly conflicted. I tell her she is a lovely person; so the next generation will associate the name with her and will love it.

[anon171999]

Yes. I've found that names have meanings and people's personalities seem to match the meaning of their name, partially or fully.

[Red-Blaze]

I do like it, its very uniqe in my area
And so many dont get it becouse it sounds like something else in my langrage that is kind of funny

[msmissydc]

Most people in my country get it wrong because I have a rare spelling in my language (normal in English) but other than that I really like it.🤗

[sarahstar13]

I like my name, but I don't like that it's one of the most common names ever haha

[PBandJ_Nerd]

Yeah. My sister's gave it to me. But I also have another name I like.

[whereismyjohnny]

I used to hate it when I was a kid, but I like it now.

[Dinklex3]

Sure.

I like my middle name the most though.

[Handsomeguy_00]

I do love my name now even though its Scottish, but when I was in primary school I always hated it and wanted to be called Andrew instead. But yes since I've come to love my always I do feel a great sense of happiness

[KostasKouvalis]

I DO and I am. Though there are a lot of murderers with my name, so appanarantly not all of them feel the same as me

[TacosRAwesome]

My name is another source of frustration in my life.

[Blackcupcake]

I love my name! I think it’s pretty, and it sounds good with my middle and last name…

[alcorriher]

yes. but people cannot say or spell it right

[wearentokay]

I like my name, it's kind of common but it fits me! I never even got a nickname. But I mean I am super depressed so I don't know about the "happier" part.

[LiamJHayden]

I was thinking of changing it to Engelbert, but I guess Liam is okay.

[stoicity]

It's called the power of manifestation, you need to beleive to make it work.

[straightmax12]

I like my name, but I don't think that liking your own name will make yourself happier.

[sage2021]

Nope, I don't like my name and never have.

[Nikki1989]

I have never liked my name.

[chilldude33]

No. That explains everything.

[TheSpaceGnome]

[Drachen]
