My father decided that the best idea was that his children will have the same name than him, and that is why my brother and I have the same name, and when we go to the bank or to the doctor together, confusion is generated because there are three people with the same name, it is very common for parents to pass the name to their offspring, with which what they do is continue their own story through their son or daughter, an example we see in history, with kings and queens with more versions than Roky, and each one seeking to surpass the one before.

Many people do not know it but the name is a stigma, a brand that we carry throughout our lives, (unless we pay to change it) and it can have a good or bad influence, each one is the owner of their own story and the creator of their own legacy, but there are many parents who consciously or unconsciously want to achieve their own goals or dreams through their sons or daughters, which can cause great inconvenience to the offspring in question.

I have also seen those who seek to combine the names of parents or some other relative in order to create a new name for the son or daughter who is on the way, obtaining results such as Wilkelman or Yuvelsis, (without the intention of being pejorative with the people who may have these names), for example a mother named Luci with a father named Fernando, would want to call their first-born Lucifer by combining the two names, which would be a really big stigma for that child, I also read once in the web that was cool to call the children with the names of the instagram filters, that's not easy.

I have a friend who is a psychologist, therapist and theologian, among other things, and when each of my daughters was born, he talked to me about how important it is to choose the right name for my daughters since it would mark them for the rest of their lives. Without wanting to go fully into the religious issue, we have countless examples in the Bible of how important and influential a name is in a person and that is why, for example, Jesus changed the name of his disciple from Simon to Peter who means stone and then at another moment he talks about how on that stone (Peter) would build his church.

Once in a meeting of some people I heard that a lady said with great pride that her son was called Zeus, as the king of the gods and some other people noticed it interesting, but speaking a little more about Greek mythology, we know that Zeus In order to become king, he killed his own father who had previously eaten his brothers.

Let's see it from the point of view of children, we know that they are the future of the world and that they are innocent, but it is also true that they can be cruel, being able to use names to bully or take them as mockery, which can have a very negative influence on the self-esteem of affected children.

I have read online that there are studies that show the influence of names on personality and also others that even speak of destiny or success according to people's names, but it is not my intention to get into these discussions but to make you see that our name and the ones we give to our offspring are catalysts that can become positive or negative, it all depends on which one is chosen.
