SONIA
 The
first name usually describes and always identifies a particular person.
Occasionally this designation has a special meaning to the parents or
person that imposes it on the newborn. Is the first time that a person
has to, passively, endure the authority of another person. The given name
consequently becomes a very distinctive trait forming part of a person'
s character.
I was baptized with the name of Sonia. I happen to think that is has
a melodious ring to it and that is easy to spell and remember. I have
been told that this name has a Russian connotation to an animal. ..the
duck. In Russian Sonia is usually spelled with an "y" i. e.
Sonya, and when pronounced in the Russian language it tends to have a
very resonant sound which differs from the soft sound in Spanish.
Some of my relatives have rebel against these pre-designated names by
challenging this tradition and selecting new names for themselves. My
audacious siblings pay no consideration to the philosophy contain in Astrology,
Palmistry, Handwriting analysis and Numerology which state that nothing
really happens by chance. These sciences maintain that we come into the
world at a certain time and with a certain name not as a matter of chance,
but as a matter of choice, and that choice was made by the soul itself
But even if some of us do not agree with these theories it cannot be
argue that the selection of " first names" , at times, effect
people in different ways. In any case, I like my name and have never thought
of changing it. But those who do are merely showing the individuality,
independence and creativity endow upon human beings. This attribute it
what makes them unique.
