Some other interesting tidbits: Football coaches are likely to have one-syllable names such as Rich, Mike or Bill. Songwriters' names harken back to some famous male musicians of the 1960s and 1970s, including Sonny, Mick and Billy. Hebrew names such as Moshe, Meir, and Shlomo are extremely common among rabbis.
这里还有一些有趣的细节:足球教练经常是起一个音节的名字,比如Rich、Mike或Bill。流行歌曲作者的名字常常是二十世纪六七十年代的著名男音乐家的名字,比如Sonny、Mick和Billy。希伯来语的名字,比如Moshe、Meir或Shlomo在拉比(犹太教经师或神职人员)中极为常见。
“So, do our names influence where we go in life? Or do the social, geographic, economic and other factors that might have influenced how our parents named us also direct our career paths?” Edmond wrote in the post. “Our hunch is that it’s mostly the latter, but bear in mind that the connection is subtle.”
爱蒙德在博文中写道,“所以,我们的名字会不会影响今后的人生方向呢?或者说影响父母为我们起名字的社会、地理、经济等其他因素还会继续影响我们的职业道路?直觉告诉我们主要是后者,但是请记住,二者的联系是非常微妙的。”
