"A good name is rather to be chosen than great riches."
-King Solomon
To most a name is simply a title. Something to be called, or to call others. They don't give it a second thought. A name is unimportant, it does not contribute to a person. Yet, names can explain the reason for things. Each person was given a name at birth, or perhaps a bit later, but that name has a meaning. It was chosen for a reason, and that name will carry them through life. A name can explain so much about a person, it can shape them to become different people. A name can inspire ideas, thoughts, and beliefs in a person. A name defines who you are.
