My name was chosen by my
parents. I'm sure about how my name was chosen. According to what my aunt said,
during the time that mother was pregnant, my parents did not choose a certain
name until I was born. They went to a temple and told my birthday to a monk who
gave them a list of names. After that, the only thing my parents needed to do
is find one they like the most. I once wondered why the monks know how to name
a baby and where the list comes from. I think it is just part of the religion
that belongs to a culture. "A good name can bring you some luck," the
monk said.
Nevertheless, my parents
chose an unusual name. Feng means blade. It means going upward. It means the
peak. For me, the funniest thing about my name is its pronunciation because it
sounds like having a bad cold.
I don’t really care about
my name. It's just a way for people to call each other and identify each other.
The name is meaningless without a certain personality. There is no difference
for me if they call me something else. A painting is still the same painting no
matter how the frame looks.

I'm agree with your opinion. The name just like a symbol, and it's no other meaning.
ReplyDeleteHi, Feng Shang
ReplyDeleteYou're right some parents in Asia believe if your child has given name by monk it would be faithfully beyond luck. It's really believable. Wish Luck !
I also do not care so much about my name, it is just like a symbol.
