What's in a Name?

Your name is very important. When you think of yourself, you probably think of your name first.

Right now, the two most popular names for babies in the United States are "Jacob" for boys and "Emily" for girls. And why are some names unpopular?

Names can become popular because of famous actors, TV or book heroes, or top players. Popular names mean very positive(积极的)things. Unpopular names mean negative(消极的)things. Here are some common opinions about names from a recent survey.

Boys' names

George: average, boring

Jacob: creative, friendly

Michael:good﹣looking,athletic

Stanley: out of date, serious

Girls' names

Betty: old﹣fashioned average

Emily: independent, adventurous

Jane: common, ordinary

Nicole: beautiful, intelligent

The biggest reason is tradition. They have no choice. Many people are named after a family member.
