What's the first name would you pick if you got to name yourself?
Our names are an incredibly important part of our identity. They carry deep personal, cultural, familial, and historical connections. They also give us a sense of who we are, the communities in which we belong, and our place in the world. Recent studies found that our names have the potential to influence our behavior, physical appearance, career path and life choices, popularity, and how others perceive us.
April 9 marks the date for 'Name Yourself Day,' a chance for those who don't like their name to think of a new one, and for parents to learn what kids really think of the names they were given.
