Just A Name | Started by: Misery on Feb 22, '10 22:16 |
So it seems a recent event made me start to think. Misery takes a look at the few people that stood around her. The other day I was walking around the corner and ran face first into a rather large man causing me to stumble back. Oh umm excuse me. My voice was quite as I looked up at the man and tried to smile while I straightened my dress. What's your name little girl? The voice that bellowed out of the man was gruff as he took a step towards me. Hey now I'm not little. I stepped back so I didn't look so small in his shadow. Laughter broke through the brief silence and he shook his head. Alright alright. Still what's your name? Misery! Thank you very much. I scoffed a bit at his laughter and then stood up straight. Yes a failed attempt to look a bit taller I had thought to myself. Hmm.. Misery huh? Now why would you be named that? He then looked at me puzzled. Have not a clue. My name came chosen from my mother I guess it's all just a name right? I then shrugged as she turned and walked off back to the hustle of everyday life. But see this all made me start thinking. Is there more to a name then it being just a name? Misery shrugged as she glanced around awaiting to see what the others around her thought. |

William was walking around when he heard someone make a speech and he walked closer to listen and after listening,he said Well,this is a pretty complex question,Misery as sometimes people with long bloodlines can use their family names to rise to power but however in my opinion,a name is basically just a name and it is our character that defines us in this world of ours. |

OST listens in and puts her thoughts together. I think for some their parents named them based on their own feelings on how things were at the time. However, it is not always the case and sometimes a name is just a name. I know in my case my mother put in a small bit of time thinking about it but in her state of mind it may not have been the best. We all make do with what we're given whether it be a name or a talent. |

A name is a name, a title, a way to indentify someone, not all names have to have meaning behind them. Though my father did choose my name cause when I first came out of my mothers womb he said "I swear he looks like a bear" so I'm sure thats how my father came up with my name. |

i dont think that it really makes a whole load of differnce i mean over the years there have been some really powerfull godfathers/mothers with crazy names. respect should not start or finish just because of your name..... some poeple will naturally adodt there fathers surname... just like me |

A name is definitely just a name. Obviously some names are more recognizable than others, but that's because those people with recognizable names have done something to deserve recognition - good or bad. I, for one, hope it stays that way. |

A name gains power from the person wearing it. For example, PoisonousJelly is a goofy name but I still follow his orders because he'll kill me if I don't. |

Names mean alot more than people would think, but creating a new one for yourself to be rocgonised by is no easy feat. |

A name is just a name at best. If anything, it can only make you look like a fool if you name yourself something like "The_TrueGodfather" Or "Don_Pete". But no name will make you garner more respect than you deserve. |

Sometimes a name is not just a name though. Maybe to everyone else it's just another name among the crowd but on a personal level there could be numerous meanings behind one given name. Obviously there is a reason your kin before you choose that name. Unless of course they were too drunk or high on drugs to really think about it. |
