　　The Importance of Name

　　There are individuals who believe that names are of vital importance for them. They argue that some names bring good luck, while others bring bad luck. For instance, in China the name Wangcai is thought to be lucky. Turning our attention to the West, we find that the Bill Gates is considered important, but some names are avoided like the plague.

　　In spite of all these claims, most people would agree that there is little evidence that names have any influence on our lives. In fact, they say, the reverse seems to be the case. For one thing, we might expect all Chinese are called Wangcai and the like when they are born, and for another, although one may be named Wangcai we know that he is not a billionaire.

　　Weighing the pros and cons of these arguments, I am inclined to agree with the latter point of view. It is obvious that there is no scientific basis for the belief that there is a connection between luck and names. All in all, it seems to me to be superstition.
