Do You Think Unique Names Lead to Narcissism?
It was, oh I don’t know… a few months ago, that I skimmed an article about unique names leading to narcissism. It was a weird sensation, feeling mock pity and incredulous laughter mixed together, but that’s what was left when I finished reading. Honestly? Giving a child a unique name could lay the foundation for a lifelong narcissistic sense of entitlement? Wow! And here I thought it had something to do with parents over indulging their children. Silly me!Unique names and narcissism have seen similar rising trends lately. Is it really logical to assume they’re linked? Has anyone considered alternate theories?
