Publisher's Synopsis
Your name matters, both to you and to those who chose it. It feels good when others show you that your name matters to them, too; it's a bridge. Exploring the 'why' behind names is profound, but most of us rarely think about a namer's heart and how that relates to our lives. Why Does Your Name Matter? encourages you to open windows of insight into the world of names, revealing aspects of names and naming you hadn't considered before. Discovering the intentions behind your name - and those of others - provides a powerful tool for connection and reconciliation. This is a journey into names and naming, from your heritage and the legacy of family names, to the ways in which names work in different cultures, to the responsibility of choosing names for the next generation.
