Y'all believe there's power in names?

[the elastic]

nah meanings change*

I agree but why would that take away from names having power?

 

[the cac mamba]

I've never met a weak Bruce

They're always either big or strong as hell

If its God's will for me to have a son I'm naming him Bruce

It’s lowkey a bunch of people named william, I wonder why it’s so popular

Because of William the Conqueror. I'm guessing it's similar to how Alex became popular because of Alexander the Great.

 

[the elastic]

That's Caitlyn

-There's a broke failed rapper named Sean in NYC too, ask him how the name helped him.

R.I.P Sean P!

[get these nets]

I agree but why would that take away from names having power?

because it would mean the names themself have no power

it would be the people they refer to that give significance to whatever name

There’s power in the name of Jesus

 

[Chip Skylark]

Bruce was an Olympian this is Caitlyn

There are some meanings that are universal and almost never change, though.

I was thinking about how two of the most powerful rap personalities in NYC are named Sean/Shawn.

Two people who changed a culture forever with the name Martin Luther.

Jackson seems to also be a powerful name.

Dennis Rodman's dad's name is Philander and had 29 kids.

Can't all be coincidence.

And?

 

[Vandelay]

I think there is power in names, but people manifest that power in the name themselves.

There's names that have a prototypical power through history, culture, and phonetics.

Alliterative and shortened names tend to be good in business. Howard Hughes, Steve Jobs, Bill Gates,

Ostentatious names tend to be great in the arts, Denzel, Spielberg, Pacino, Deniro, Leonardo DiCaprio, Basquiat.

My friend was named after Shaq and he still 5'3. I'm going to say names aren't as big a deal as we think and we don't have a big enough sample size to know the real answer
