Are there any names you are bias towards
You are on page out of 2 | Reverse Order
I have very good associations, thanks to past experiences, with the male name Jason.
I know not to trust that everyone with the name Jason is like the Jasons I've known, but my immediate reaction to the name is positive. At one time I had a list of male and female names ready in case I ever had children, and Jason was on the male list.

No bias.
But I have this thing where people with the same name...have a simillar vibe to me,
I also have two male friends whom I cannot call by their name because their face expresses a different name to me. One of them told me everyone uses the same name I imagined for him...and he has no idea why.
With my first name, all the women I know with that name are fire moons lol.
With my middle name, I barely meet any with it...despite being way more common.
And my last name...well that's just lionhearted.

Every Erin I have met have been total bitches... So when the name Erin comes up it immediately registers a red flag. Lol I'm not joking every Erin.
Kassandra is another name I try to avoid... My ex cappy is a Kassandra lol I let that one slide because I fell in love with her at first sight. Lol

I like people with weird names.
I tend to forget the normal ones.

I really believe, for some misterious reasons, a beautiful name gives you the edge; for instance a woman with a classy name is most likely to be classy, don't know why but that happens, very often.
Same goes for men.

Posted by FrenchKpricornThat's a distinguished name, a very good indicator of a charismatic person.
every alexandre i met are pretentious and weak
...and I also bet this is your twisted way of saying Alexandre it's your name. Right?
Posted by FrenchKpricornLol!
every andalusia i met were hot asf
Posted by FrenchKpricornWe're neighbours (Italian) and I obviously know many Alessandro although is not a common name here.Posted by Paleriono, but i bet you have spanish or portuguese origins and you know some "alexandro",Posted by FrenchKpricornThat's a distinguished name, a very good indicator of a charismatic person.

It's a name I like in most languages despite not liking the Spanish version (Alejandro) because the sound is not as strong. I always have a instant sense of respect when I meet someone with that name.
Posted by METANOIANo bias, but a "pattern" behind certain names is undeniable.
no that seems dumb
The sound says everything.

Posted by elllesqueYou're tough, it makes perfect sense.
My name is traditionally a man's name.
I love Alessandro and Mateo...both are my cousins' names and they live in Italy.
Both are names that have a Romanian correspondent.
My first name doesn't have a twin name in another language (although it apparently derives from Greek). Wish at least one of my two names would have at least an English twin name but...my parents had to go and make it different. *shakes fists at sky*
In a normal world at least one of my two names would have been Alessandra or something like it since I'm born on Saint Alexander's day.

I hated it throughout my childhood. Endured a lot of teasing.
However, now it comes in handy......
The look on some people's face when I enter a room.....and they are expecting a man simply based on my name.

Andrea is probably the sexiest man's name ever for women.
If your name is Chiquita, I will automatically assume you're a banana.
Posted by elllesqueMy only solace in this life is that I realized you can pronounce my name in English if you join two animals from the jungle book and change the first consonant. But at least it sounds like it should.Posted by DamnataI was actually named after my father but it was spelled like a female tv character my mother liked (she's a gemini 😛)Posted by elllesquein all fairness i only heard the diminutive of your name before used for a man.Posted by engagement_hotdoglol...nopePosted by elllesquesteve?

My mother tried to spell it so it was girly but that didn't hep much.
I even dropped the 'E" to make it even more girly and that didn't help either.....and eventually just looked juvenile as I got older.....so, I changed it back.click to expand

Uma as well, despite being a feminine name, sounds very masculine.

Posted by DamnataI found this phenomenon weird but very common.
No bias.
But I have this thing where people with the same name...have a simillar vibe to me,
Certain names just repeat themselves and every time they do you get a similar vibe from people who have them.
No bias again but It's also very common to like someone because of their name, you always look them with a different eye if you like how they're named, which is why I'm assuming there must be something dark behind every name.

But what about if you have an idea of a name and never met any person with that name?
In the case of my friend...his name is "Tudor". Ever since I met him I could not get "Victor" out of my head. I never met any "Victor" in my life. Then he told me other people say "Victor" too. Maybe those other people know "Victor"s so they are projecting characteristics but I don't know any. It's weird the associations we make at times..
It would be really cool if we didn't have any first names and we could pick ours.
There is a ritual here with objects after the baptism, I think other countries have it too.
You put a lot of objects on a table and see which one the baby goes for. Would be cool to have that with names.

Posted by RumiLoveI went through a B phase. 😛
My name is a little rare in my country(official name) and..obviously, i always get curious, even my mom. Once I tried to befriend a girl because she had mom's name :/
There's another name ..i like and, its a name for both boys and girls, my eyes brighten up when I hear it and I do observe them.
I'm not conscious of it but.. It happens automatically haha. Ofcourse I dont judge anyone but I guess they're sentiments.
ALSO, it sounds silly but most of the guys I crushed hard on had names starting with "K" .. :-)
Ben, Brandon. .. etc

Michelle and lisa i feel r very sweet caring ppl. I dont know any mean michelle or lisas they r so angelic
Oh and dominique i hate when ppl confuse dominique with a boy because the masculine version is dominic or dominick its like whyyyyy dominique is promounced dom onique monique why name boy that..jeesh stick to make version...i guess jordan is masculine and feminine so hey
Ive heard that all Mikes are assholes.
That's exactly why I think it's the name itself that projects certain characteristics, you don't need to actually meet someone to get an idea. For instance I've never met neither a Tudor nor Victor but they both give me a similar regal vibe, I could easily imagine them being kings with those names, I can't tell you why.
For instance my name means "healthy/in great shape" and I've never caught a grippe once in my life. My surname means "traveller" and I'm an errant soul who lived in 8 different houses in 25 years (same city) with the constant urge to change place every two because I don't feel right not moving.
Do you think it's a coincidence Adolf means "noble wolf" in old German?
I can't put it logically but there's something we're missing. We all unconsciously try to live up to the name we're given when we're born.

But I wonder which is more responsible for the attributes/characteristics - if it's the name itself or the parents who give it [the name].
Mine is a flower.... Never had it confused thankfully!
My bro and sis have super common names. Both have been mentioned already, also when my dad got remariired, i then had a step sister and brother of those names.
so we had 2- michelles and 2 michaels. hahahah
I don' t really have any bias towards names, at least i do not think i do.

Posted by PalerioI wonder this as well. It's a lot of pressure and that pressure makes sense since I am also a Virgo.
TWe all unconsciously try to live up to the name we're given when we're born.
For my name: glory / beauty / field of birds (??) / victory / leader
It's too much (even with the aries placements backing me up).
Posted by CopperDoveI think the name was really popular around the time I was born or something. I've met a few around my age and can't help but feel a little stupid whenever I have to address them because it's my name too. I'm sure other people with even more popular names feel the same way.
I have very good associations, thanks to past experiences, with the male name Jason.
I know not to trust that everyone with the name Jason is like the Jasons I've known, but my immediate reaction to the name is positive. At one time I had a list of male and female names ready in case I ever had children, and Jason was on the male list.
I have indeed noticed that Jasons tend to be treated with positivity from others. Perhaps this is so because the supposed destiny for those given this name is, "to heal", whether it is others or themselves and it seems people can feel that.
"Our name is our virtue", as the lyrics to a popular song says. Bet you can guess who sang them. 😉

Posted by AmandusIt was definitely a popular name around the time that I was born (1970s). Interesting that you've noticed that people have positive association with the name, so it isn't just me. It's a pretty cool name meaning. haha, yes, another Jason with Jason Mraz.
