Abstract
A review of the literature attempted to answer questions regarding the guidelines used in the assignment of names and the eventual impact which particular names have on the bearers. Connotative meaings were concluded to affect not only name choice but also self-preceptions, personality development, and behavior patterns in both children and adults. It was recommended that research beyond naturalistic observation be carried out in the areas of personality development, clinical and social psychology.
