Does name really have an effect on personality? Here is what science says

According to science, someone’s name can affect his life in surprising ways.

Two theories have been proposed by scientists in this regard “Name Letter Effect” and “Dorian Gray Effect”.

These theories suggest that a person’s name affects his personality, career, relationships, and even appearance.

Name Letter Effect

According to this, when people buy something or choose anything in their life, they prefer things that match the letters of their name.

Dorian Gray Effect

This theory suggests that your name also affects how people see you and even how you see yourself.

Research shows that people tend to gravitate toward careers that match the sound or meaning of their name. Studies show that unusual or rare names sometimes get fewer jobs.

The researchers also found that people are also more attracted to people who have similar names. This behavior is called The Implicit Egotism Effect, which shows that people are attracted to people who are similar in names.
