Child's Role In Choosing It's Own Name
What Is The Child's Role In Choosing It's Own Name?
Question for discussion: Do you believe it's possible for an unborn child to play a role in nudging parents to the name desired? I started wondering about this when I read the story of a young boy who has been featured lately as having been reincarnated. The boy's parents now believe he lived a past life as a navy pilot during World War II; the boy has apparent knowledge of airplanes and aviation that the parents and others state would be impossible without having lived a former life. The boy's name was James in the past life, and he's also named James in this life
It's certainly proven that a child in the womb learns to know it's mother's heartbeat, voice, scent, and breathing rhythm. In the Bible, when Mary the mother of Jesus visited a pregnant Elizabeth, "the baby leaped in her womb" (Elizabeth's) at the sound of Mary's greeting. (Luke 1:41). Many women relate stories of their babies "talking" to them, or giving them strong impressions of various things they should or should not do, including things that some women believe literally saved their lives.
Is it so odd to think that a child might have a role to play in naming him- or herself? I wonder.
