I read this recently and thought it was interesting. Thought I'd post it here because it sort of relates to your dilemma...
A recent study was conducted that determines how your initials may affect your life.
People with "positive" initials that spell out things like J.O.Y. or W.O.W. live nearly 4 1/2 years longer than people with neutral initials. Other initials that may pro-long life are V.I.P and H.I.P.
Psychologists Leif Nelson and Joseph Simmons conducted their research through baseball records, grade point averages and law school admissions.
They found that in baseball players with the first or last name beginning with the letter K where more likely to strike out in a game. Ironically strikeouts are recorded with the letter k.
Students who’s names begin with A or B had higher GPAs. This resembles the academic grading scale.
It appears that there may be a psychological association with how we go through life and our names. So to attain success associate your initials with something positive!
So giving my son the same first name initial as his last name actually does increase his chances of getting superpowers in a lab accident? Go Stan Lee for pointing that one out. So thrilled now.
However, that report on the study needs grammar checking and educating about what irony actually is.
not often your entire name is written, in that i mean besides christening, wedding etc usually we just use our first and last name,
ds1 has me why at preschool we dont write his middle name (Milton) , try to explain that to a 5yr old lol its his name but we barely use it
