lieve I am on sound ground
in saying that, by and large,
the practice of name-giving in
this country leaves much to
be desired.
The national altitude to
ward personal names con
forms to the familiar Shake
speare quotation:
What's in a name? That
which we call a rose by any
other name would smell as
sweet."
The implication is that
names really don't matter.
But is that true? A rose by
another name might very wcli
smell like a petunia.
I have before me a clipping
from the legal notices in a
local newspaper. It advises
that a woman has filed appli
cation in district court.to
change her name from "Julie
Lee Marsh" to "Sincere De
termination." I'm inclined to think that
when Julie Lee legally be
comes Sincere Determination
she also will become a better
person.
Most of the first names
used in America are prosaic
and dull, but all have, mean
ings which if used as names,
would give our nomenclature
freshness and color.
For instance, John, which
is one of the most over
worked names in America,
means "God's gracious
love." Wouldn't that make
a fine name for a Presi
dent? Roger Blough of U.S. Steel
might not agree, but he also
would stand to benefit. If his
parents had named him
"Spear of Fame," rather than
Roger, steel prices today
might be six cents a ton
higher.
There is, however, no guar
antee that an infant will fit
his name when he grows up.
I have a daughter named
Rebecca, which means "firm."
That doesn't suit her at all. It
turned out that her chief char
acteristic is asking questions.
If I had known when she
was born what I know now,
I would have named her
"Constant Interrogation,"
which is almost as lovely a
name as "Sincere Determina
tion" or Billie Sol."
