Do you beleive that you eventually become the name you are named at birth?Were you given a name that is affecting you positively or negatively? Did you change your name because it only brought you bad luck....
My English name Blesses me and my native name puts me under pressure....All my life that name has pushed me into doing more than everyone else, it tells me that i cannot be lazy because no one else is lazy and then it tells me that i have to do better and not stop.......Something happened for that name to be given to me and my people, i tell you that a name comes alive everytime you pronounce it...
What does your name do for/to you?
Lets gist!

ReplyDeleteI don't believe that one's name is an all or non determinant of ones future, moreso, if one absolutely detests the name their parent have them, they can change it (both physically and spiritually).

Na when I reach 35 years I drop all my native names. Fine names with meaning, no achievement. Make I dey answer Fiona and Dionne and Jazmine whether difference fit dey.
ReplyDeleteI love my both Englishe and native names.
ReplyDeleteYoruba name have meanings and so no need to change except you are named after gods,goddess and you change your religion ,there are needs to change because of family linkage
ReplyDeleteNames are so strong,they have the ability of bringing blessings.
ReplyDeleteMost people in the bible, immediately their names were changed,blessings followed.
Abram became Abraham - a
man whom God blessed with children in his old age
Sarai became Sarah - a woman God made fertile and bore a child in her old age.
Saul became paul - a man who persecuted christains,later repented and became a very strong disciple of Christ.
My English means love
ReplyDeleteI don't Know how it has help me or affect me
They say Nkech People are always stubborn and true to it, most Nkechis I've come across are actually so. People say I can be stubborn but I believe my stubborness comes from being strong willed when I'm determined to do a thing.
ReplyDeleteAside that, My name has proven to Me in several occasions that I'm God's own and he always comes through for Me after I might have exhausted all means.
Both my native and English names affects me positively.
ReplyDeleteMy parents named my sister ifeoma and named me ndidi. Every good thing goes to this my sister without her struggling for them. Even during her single days, she did married men and all but still got married to a man that worship her while my own is so so disappointment and heartbreak. With all the uncountable abortions she did,she got married and gave birth to beautiful children until she said shes ok. All they're telling me is to have patience because it is my name
ReplyDeleteGet out of that mindset. If there is power in the name then it can only have power in that place. Have you tried moving to a different state or country? You can also change your name, even your family name. There are many people who renamed themselves with a name of their liking. I also know families that immigrated and also changed their surnames, getting married is the easiest route for that for women. A woman I knew told me her father was not born with the surname he has, he chose to change it. Take your personal power and change your name if you don’t like it. Why lament when you can do something about it.
DeleteYou can change that name plssss. Had a Cousin with that same name Ndidi and I kid you not. So so heart break from Men and people keep telling her to have patience. Nobody told her to change her name all of a sudden she started answering Patricia and you dare not call her by her former name or else... Long story short, today she's not only married but doing excellently well
DeleteI hope you love your sister and are not jealous. Your type can spill
DeleteThe name mercy has generated a lot of compassion for me.
ReplyDeleteName affects o. I’m thinking of changing my name too.
