WHAT'S IN A NAME?
One of the highly underrated problems of population increase is a lack of names . Most names are derived from religious or mythological background which is fixed corpse , so , although we increase , our repository of names does not . Although Shakespeare did say " what's in a name " but i don't remember him naming any of his characters ' Sir F**kin A**h***'. Names are like chewing gums , once they stick they just won't go off . Unfortunately every damn name seems to come with its liabilities . All of them seem specially designed for one joke or the other . So if you are reading this ,you are not the only one whose name rhymes with *****. You are not the only one who seeks a nameless world . As a person who believes in equality I say , we leave names and use numbers to address people . Next I introduce myself ,i am Mr. 745289 . Bye Ms. 76893.
Name instead of number. Hmm. Then we will all listen to Bach every day 1 hour. We will all be doing Maths. And only painting that will circulate with M C Echers.
ReplyDeleteInteresting World :)
You could lead to another rivalry on whose name (number) is greater!
ReplyDeleteI have no problem with the naming as such but my query is little different...why are names also divided on religious/cultural lines? Why don't we ever come across a name like Narasimha Singh Arora, or Daljeet Reddy, or Imran Sharma or Ram Mohammad etc etc?
