What’s in a name?

An expression most of people heard of more than once and many of them understand it, even more don’t.

At least one of the religions teaches that it is a parents’ obligation to give their offspring proper, if not beautiful, name. It is a first heritage that parents pass on. Some really take it hard that they can not bear the task individually and ask the Great Creator of a proper name for their child. Some take the responsibility, keeping in mind the importance, and scrutinize some literature for reference. Some civilizations take daily household things’ name for their kid. Some pick up names out of thin air. I belong to one of those groups.

All brings up names; Ahmed, Nabila, Rania Hasna, Lemoni, Idhfir, Bonar, and Motor, to name a few. I like names, trying to find what “the meaning inside” it, its background, where it originates from and so on. And for sure, I will be honored to give a name to a newborn baby.
