The Influence Our Names Have or Not

Do you think your name influenced the person you've become? I think most of us have the ability to grow, change, evolve over time. Many of us doing it regularly. The influence, our name may or may not have, will adjust as well. Mine isn't common. When I've come across another girl/woman with my name, it's always the Irish spelling. Mine is French in origin. It means, strength. I don't think my nature, views, interests, friends, work & such were a choice that I made based on my name. Certain traits were developed at conception & come from my parents. Before they had even given me a name. With influence, sometimes we're aware of it, sometimes we're not conscious of it. I would think with our names we'd need to know. Others would probably say it happens without us being part of it, because, fate or something else is guiding it. I don't care for my first name, though, I do like my middle. I strive to be a better person & help others, as I'm able. I don't believe that has anything to do with my name. Do you think your name has influenced your life?
