I don't know man, being named "Vivek" which literally translates to "smart", "wise" comes with a lot of expectations which I instantly shatter as soon as I open my mouth XD
shut up meg
Imagine calling your son "Einstein", boi he would win 10 Nobel prizes in science.... I'm going to try this with my son when I grow up lol.
Vivec achieved CHIM after all.
@@jeannedarc7533 or you might end up stressing your child to death :D
FAR-Q Vivek.
Apparently, naming your child "Little Bear Brown" sounded like a great idea to my parents because Bob, or Jeff, or, well, any other name at all, just wasn't going to get my ass kicked in school, college, and then Army Basic Training enough. That aside, the true horror behind this baby-naming train wreck is that I'm the third. That's right...two successive generations decided that suffering builds character and intentionally passed this on to their children! Incidentally, all of the men who carry this name were/are military men. Not sure what this does for the theory of Nominative Determinism but, I can say that if nothing else, my name has contributed to a very interesting life and outlook therein. :)
Your first name is actually ‘Little’?
your name is fucking bear brown?

When I was a chef (years ago) the name of my coffee (Farmer's brand) salesman was, Pete Brewer. When he handed me his business card, I read it and looked at him and said, "Really?" Damn, that was over 20 years ago come to think of it...

I changed my traditional Asian first name to a French one, and instantly I noticed there is a change in the way people's attitude towards me. The first question is no longer "Where are you from?" or "How long have you been here?", which is really refreshing. People just assumed I am a native and start the conversation without all the stereotypes that associate with my former name.
It’s just something to say when you first meet someone, it’s hard to break the ice with anything will do.
I can only guess you are American, anyone from Europe would not mind if they were asked. I find it weird. “How dare you ask where I’m from”.
huh? Ok.
Probably means you are so ugly they can’t tell you you look nice.
@@ed-nd3lw well I’m 35 now living in the US. Back when I first came it wasn’t easy since I’ve always been the immigrant. I glad that I changed my name because it made doing business much easier, people are more trusting and relax more. I’m glad you were able to embrace your birth name. I wished my circumstance were different.
I’m an immigrant and I’m always interested where people are from so I always ask people even if they look like their from the country. If there is someone who looks like they descent from another country I’ll also ask them where their family is from.

I went to school with a pair of twins, Aaron and Zach. Aaron was always top of his class, while Zach was an underachieving class clown, who usually sat next to me in summer school. Just tossing that out there.
BTW, Aaron is now an attorney, and Zach is a stand-up comedian.

I am a white male and I was trying to get engineering internships, I actually had one they wanted a woman so HR would be able to use her in their quota numbers.

I researched my maiden name as a result of this episode, and found it meant “sea battle” or “sea battler”. I found that fascinating because most of my ancestors were merchant seamen, merchant marines, naval mercenaries, in the Naval Armed forces, and I enjoy the water to the point where I felt I had to live near water..

It's the law of attraction and Law of vibration at work. Whatever thought people put in their minds (not a few times), but over and over again, comes into their reality at certain point in their lives. Einstein said "match the frequency of the reality you want, and you can not help but get that reality".
This happens to people all the time, rich get richer, poor get poorer, lucky ones keep getting more luck which astounds people around them, helpless keep getting more trouble coming at them, cheated on people keep getting cheated, abused people keep finding another abuser. And people keep saying "this happens to me all the time".

What a concidence! We studied names in literature last week in univerersity and our professor said that we always have to think about names when interpreting a character. We also mentioned the Shakespeare quote "what's in a name" (from Romeo & Juliet) 😄
Have you heard of the northern European custom of naming the first son for his paternal grandfather, the second son for his maternal grandfather, the first daughter for her paternal grandmother and the second daughter for her maternal grandmother? A good Viking custom.
Nice! I like that. Funnily enough my first name is my paternal great grandmother's name and my middle name is my maternal grandmother's name. I am the first (and only) born daughter. My background is Italian.
In Iceland our last name is always the name of our father +son or +daughter. For example my dads name is Egill so my last name is Egilsson (Egill’s Son), if I would have been female it would have been Egilsdottir (Egill’s Daughter).
@@ThizOne Wow, never heard that before. So do you have a different surname than both of your parents?
@@Psichotica7 Yes, because their fathers have different names. Also, we have a (pretty strict) official naming committee that controls what you can name your child (which is pretty ridiculous in my opinion).
Thank god they named me Mark instead, Alven would have been a lifelong pain. And yes that was how they spelled it, his mother, my great grandmother was named Alvena, because my great great grandfather wanted a boy so much he named her for the name Alven which would have been the boy's name had she been a boy.

When I was jobless few years ago, despite a strong background, it was hard to get interviews. However less qualified people I know of, with more common names, would get frequent interviews opportunitie and offers at a faster rate than me.
TFresh sounds like a moist towlett brand, maybe that's your carreer path
yup. been there.

Is there any study about the impact of having a hard to pronounce name has on a person? Having your name mispronounced all the time for decades makes you feel there's something wrong with you. imo
I've been a living experiment for that for 43 years
its not that bad. kinda like it
First name? It usually just ends up as a derivative that friends and sometimes family use.
Last names tend not to be used day in and day out in the few cultures I've spent time in, with the exception of the military and even there complicated names they get shortened.
Yes I have a name that when I was young people commonly mangled it, not so much anymore since there's a pretty popular actor who shares it.

It would be interesting to see how names which have negative stereotypes attached perform. Karen is a current obvious example, particularly in the USA - not many babies named that recently, I guess. In the UK, Sharon and Tracy come in for a lot of stick. And there are many other examples. I wonder, even today, how many German parents name their off-spring Adolf?
The Hitler ancestors of today have actually all changed the name's spelling
In the Netherlands that would be Anita. Bit trashy, very blonde, very brown, speaking with an urban accent, and not so smart. Together with her boyfriend sjonnie they stood for all kind of stupid. I think it started in the eighties. The name Anita became unpopular after that. Sjonnie never was used very often
Chantel or Chardonnay are probably newer versions of bad names in the U.K.
Afaik naming your child Adolf is illegal in Germany

@@sabersz Brightness/color was more trendy back then. I think because of the rise of channels like Troom Troom and crap that were always on the trending page. But now creators who cover more serious topics (like this channel, Simon Whistler, Mr Ballen, Observe, Disrupt, etc.) have much darker, or at least, much less aggressive lighting. And I agree - for the better. I think it helps us focus more on the audio (the actual content) than the screen.
That's because his real name is Arran. It starts with an A, thats why he's so good :P

Man down! 😂
I love this channel. Did the covid binge so i gotta wait on new drops now. BUT...... Question i have:
Does anyone else think Thoughty2 (AKA : Agent 42), is or was a spy? Dude is intelligent without a doubt. But his eyes have always given me a deeper sense of Extreme Intelligence and unconscious Behavioral Analysis Social Persuasion skills. I noticed this while binging and noticing certain things seeing the Mustache vs Clean shaven appearance.
For example : clean shaven you can see he has this charismatic half smile with really honest eyes. Almost that of an actor such as Brad Pitt or maybe Matt Damon. Just honest and captivating.
Then you have the suspenders. My brain tells me...Steve Urkle, harmless and genuine as well as intelligent, and maybe a tad nerdy.
Back to Clean shaven. When he is shaved, he looks like a girls wet dream. Catholic school boy haircut, dimples by his mouth, perfectly imperfect teeth, and that ability to raise his right eyebrow in such a way that he has moments of... Well like eye-dimples i guess. Also, he keeps his right eyebrow raised slightly and the left one straight, with his left eye slightly strained. Like the perfect headshot for a mysterious actor shopping for agents with the confidence of a seasoned vet.
Also, he blinks slow. Almost always maintaining eye contact ( even with closed lids), which keeps me interested and as attentive as if we were having an actual face to face conversation. Thats skill.
So....(and ill try to keep it short and to the point as possible).
So....... Mustache. First off, im a fan! It adds to the whole Suspenders, Button Up Shirt, Catholic school boy haircut innocence. In fact, i believe he said he grew it because of something he read about appearing more trustworthy, or something to that nature. And it Works!
His appearance is trustworthy and harmless, while also intelligent and interesting. And, being American, the accent is the icing on the cake to top the ensemble off.
The Mustache absolutely changes everything! Without it, he could be perceived as a "Bad Boy" by some. A risk taker, or a daredevil. Maybe a poker hustler or even an MMA fighter. Mustache on and appears as if he wouldnt hurt a fly or take a risk bigger than getting the soup when he always gets the salad. Shaved, i could see him sky diving or at the strip club giving his buddy one hell of a last night as a free man bachelor party.
All that being said, Thoughty2 is an amazing White Morgan Freeman (lol). Perfect for narrating and presenting information in a way anyone can enjoy and understand. When i want to watch something interesting and entertaining, Thoughty2 is my first choice hands down. And o love hearing him say, "Hey! 42 here. 😉. I find myself saying it randomly my other self all the time. Its mad fun to say.
Conclusion: Is Thoughty2 really Agent 42? Could he be a deep agent? A spy? MI-6 or CIA? Could Agent 42 be master of disguise and his youtube channel a mere front to keep his identity safe while creating and maintaining a consistent Cover Identity and clever Back Story? Is Agent 42 working undercover right now to infiltrate RUclips and take down the biggest technology conglomerate for crimes we cant even imagine?
Or is Agent 42 more sinister? Planting subliminal messages in the fragile minds of the consumers addicted digital media, contributing to some diabolical plan to enslave free *Thoughts*? Like how many licks it takes to get to to center of a Tootsie Pop, The World, may never know.
One thing is for sure, weather Thoughty2 is infact Agent 42 or not; he remains the most relevant and consistent channel informative entertainment. Love him or hate him, rest assured, ( or terrified) that he has carved out a niche in the biggest digital streaming platform and will continue to grow his fan base through creating and providing some of the webs highest quality content.
Mustache or not, Im a fan.
Thanks Agent,, i mean Thoughty2! Keep up great work! You are making college more irrelevant 20 mins at a time. 🤘
Nah, I think you just got caught up in a thought and ran with it. He’s really just a cool and intelligent dude who has a bit of a hipster style and likes to share interesting information, content, history, and thought-provoking concepts with people who are interested in hearing him speak. A great deal of the time things aren’t anything more than what they seem to be upon first sight.
@@LoveRemains 😂 it was totally satire and homage. Appreciate you have his back though. I didnt get any info from anyone, i just think hes super smart, that of intelligence agency stature. Was nothing but massive respect. Definitely my favorite channel...and the 42 is how he sounds to americans when saying Thoughty2...he has made jokes about this in the past. Such a great channel. Im just glad the infographics style graphics he was using for like a month stopped fast, i hate those style graphics. His original style of images is classic and far better on the eyes.
That’s interesting, I had a high school best friend whose names started with O and last name with B. She was always the first few when taking student attendance. Despite her being kind and hard-working student she never achieved her desire grades. She was the quietest student in class, going to the teachers before school to get help. Yet nothing changed. She’s not the worst type of student, she’s like an average student, but her time spent studying for materials were never reflective of her grades. My other friends and I in the other hand, last names all started with P, T, V, Y and Z. We were all on A’s Honor Roll throughout high school. The only thing I noticed was, our first names were E, C, I, J, and N, when her’s was O. Maybe that had some sort of effect.
In my high school tests and papers were handed in with our student number not our name starting my junior year. I got my first A on an English paper; quite a few people got their first B.

Usually its vpns (either you know what they are and already have one, or don't and never do), an opportunity to become a Lord by giving an American company who owns some land in Scotland some money (and it's probably a con), or good old anti-virus software, which is pretty much built into whatever operating system you are using anyway. Well done Thoughty 2! Advertising insurance is a useful thing to do!
Everything you just said about names serves true regarding Ancestry!* I always wondered..Well done! 🧠👏
I would love to find references to all the studies you mention
google exists
@@kasin3504 yes
You can call yourself whatever you want, change your name, use a moniker or pseudonym.....which most authors use.
But what I've found in working at the executive corporate level for over 20 years, is that your name is only important if it's attached to someone wealthy or with power. More often that not, people in the corporate world.....or anyone above a senior management level.....is noticed and hired because of their user ability (any part of you, your resume, or your personality that those above you can use to their advantage for whatever reason).
More often than not, people are hired for one or all, of three reasons:
--Skin color (businesses must maintain a certain percentage of certain races in order to keep or acquire government monies)
--Looks (I've known MANY, MANY, MANY companies that hire for looks, regardless of whether the person they are hiring knows the job or is trained)
--Cheap labor (especially rampant in medium to large companies....they want the cheapest labor possible and do not care about talent, skills, looks, or color. If you are the one that accepts the cheapest wages, you are the one that gets hired)
One of the first Nurses to work in our local hospital in the 50’s was named Nursila. I used to know a total of a half dozen names that fit their occupation. Wow. I wrote this before he mentioned the “health care” study. Imagine my surprise.
9:30 *YOU* Chose Kiki to be spiky. *WE* chose her to be outgoing 😏
"Stambolova" is Bulgarian, "stumble over ya" would be an English phrase. This one might be a stretch. - Chris Skeptic
That's exactly what I would expect someone named Broussard to say!
I think "stumble over" would be good enough and matches it perfectly. But I really doubt she was aware of any similarity to this English phrase
@@user-ji4gf5xr9y She wasn't. I know her personally.
I doubt anyone would have the name Chris Skeptic.
For the Aussies, Hugh Jackman (Huge Act Man) sounds fitting,......but what's going on with Delta Goodrem (Dealt Her Good Ram) LMAO
In my last job there were a couple of solictors firms I had to deal with. One was called 'Wright Hasall' and the other was 'Bodgett, Blewitt and Blunder'.
For some reason neither company inspired me with confidence!
Whilst at that job as a kind of hobby to keep me amused I used to collect the most entertaining names of cases I had to deal with.
There were a pair of brothers called Chris Peacock and Drew Peacock (say them quickly). I have no idea if they lived up to their names and had no desire to find out!🤢
Then there was a guy who had German parents but was born and raised in Birmingham (UK) and had a thick brummie accent. They named him Urick. Nothing wrong with that. Except his surname was Hund. And he worked in customer complaints.😄
Was just whatching a 5 year old video of Thoughty2 and now watching this.. Realizing the astounding transformation. From some door-to-door-salesman-looking guy who's overdressed as though he's trying to impress his first date's dad to a formidable lumberjack with a 'can get shit done' 'stach that would make your gf's father bow in awe. Nevertheless, his amiable and witty character has been around unchanged all along.
Someone mentioned he looked like Malcolm, from Malcolm in the middle, grown up, it’s hard not to see it, wish they kept it to themselves.
My gynecologists name is “ dr Locher”
in German :”dr Hole-maker”
I always loved his name.
When is your new diet book coming out Mr. Low-Mass?? Sign me up for the pre-order!
Always had this suspicion.
But interconnections between things in life are so complex and very flooded with what's called "information noise".
Every actor/singer: *_Where is the lie tho?_*
Every Jewish actor who changed their name to be less European.
I've search the meaning of my surname and where it derives. It comes from the Spanish word Vez means time. In recent years I am always awarded in school, work as best in attendance, punctual. That kind of thing.
I dony know why but... when i read the thumbnail i continue to say "slim shady"😂😂😂
So how do you explain why Standard & Poor is in the financial industry?
My parents should have called me A1 lol
-husband "we shouldnt have named him harry"
-wife"why not? harry's a nice name"
-husband "our last name is cox"
I love these videos but the small snippets of comedy gold make my day time and time again
I am pretty sure there's Harry, Randy, and Hugh Cox out there somewhere...
i was almost named harry, and i think you can see why i wasn’t
Alright then I'm naming my child
"Rich genius talented strong"
I could listen to this bloke talk all day.
Jeff is a common name... is it like a charge attack? all the Jeff's charged up one Jeff?
But “Who would ever be afraid of a Jeffery* he’s just a nice bloke from down the street idn’t he” 😉

Yes...last name Winger
Also, People with more Childish sounding names like “Emily” or “Bobby” are more likely to make people think of you as unprofessional than if you had a name like “Veronica” or “Alexander” (Idk..?). Mature sounding names vrs Childish.
My sister in law is called Emily, and she is a multilingual head of languages at the school that she teaches at, as well as being an accomplished musician and artist. Correlation does not equal causation.
Unlike the ^ I get what you mean. I grew up as Joey but now everyone calls me joe. A lot of names are like that. They have a more childish version and a more adult version. Bobby/bob jimmy/jim and so on
Marilyn had to convince the world that He is not a some Hot Blonde, so he kept his last name as Man + Son = Manson 🤣🤣🤣
my last name literally translates to ‘since the night’ in my language. I have always worked better at night, couldn’t really focus during the day and I often find myself waiting for the sunset.
my dad is always lazy during the day and once the night comes he finishes all his work.
my grandfather (who is a huge debater) will debate more and more as the sun sets.
should I go on or…?
We had gynecologist in our area, Dr. Clapp.
I BELIEVE YOU
One might think I would be swimming in the waters of luxury with my name. Both my first and my last are compelling.Unfortunately, I don't have the money associated with either one.
My little sis is named K.L.N. Hallmark, it stands for nothing more than the fact that my dad saw a licence plate and liked how it looked.
LOL ur dad is goated 🐐
I'll name my son "ear wax" so that people will bully him which makes him stronger ikr I'm such a good father
Does your sisters name pronounce kaylin?
@@4nd3rzzon you're very close, it's pronounced like Kay Ellen
and so everyone has to call her K-L-N?
I live in NSW, Australia, and our state Minister for Health has the last name Hazzard.
I feel like that is a bit of a worry
I know an oncology surgeon who's last name is "Benigno Tijerina" which more less means "Benign Scissors". (Oversimplying "Good" tumors are called benign, bad tumors [cancer] are called malignant)
And also, a Gastroenelogist who's name is Ascaris Alcidez, Ascaris is the name of an intestinal parasite, and Alcidez, sounds and is written like Acid (you know like, gastric acid)
This is 100% truth lol
