readers digest said subconsciously your mind will find people
with names with 'front vowel sounds' more attractive then people
with back alphabet sounds. so names like Matt (sound is aa) will
make a person subconsciously more attractive then a name like Paul.
(aw)
readers digest arrived at this conclusion by doing many tests
showing the same people's faces, but with different names below
their faces. the same person's photo were rated more attractive
when labelled with names with fronter alphabet sound.
i wonder why parents choose their childrens english names without
thinking carefully whether that name can be made fun of? is it
similar to some object like 'DlCK'? is it plain wierd, or abstract
like 'sunny'? will it be commonly mispronounced? is it just a month
of a year like 'june' 'september' 'may' ? i know people with all of
those names n more and they all dislike it.
