Good afternoon everyone, hope the day is going just fine. I will be sharing my view in the contest topic "The importance of having a good name" as it is relevant for a good name to be attributed to everyone one.

A good name is one of those things which I know can't be patronized unjustly except scrutunized and proven to be merited.

A good name in this context is far beyond our parent given name from birth but is that aura attached to it, it is what comes to the mind of people when our names are being mentioned.

I think what makes a name valuable and important Is that person's unique personality. It is the good remarks or response that comes from people when such name is being mentioned.

I believe that a person's reputation is more valuable than material wealth because with a good reputation, one can easily attract good things his way.

A good reputation strengthens both personal and formal bonds because of the trust and sincerity that has been built thereby paving way for wealth. But material wealth rarely pave way for a good reputation because power is intoxicating, except one chooses to put the wealth into good use before he can earn a good name.

In my honest opinion, the qualities or characteristics which contributes to building a good name for oneself are; honesty, trustworthy, selflessness, humility, uniqueness and consistency.

A good name can positively impact personal relationship as it kindles trust, love and honesty among those involved. It also have an impact on professional opportunities as a good name is the goodwill of any company and obviously everyone enjoys working with a company of high reputation and standards as accountability, reliability and morale boosting is always the goal.

In as much as the legacy of a person with a good name might live on after his death and his family gets to benefit in one way or the other from his good deeds, I still think a good name can't be inherited or passed down through generations because a good name is an individual and not a collective body unique qualities or characters. It is a one man for himself thing.

It is important to note that our birth given name Is just a vessel which the content expected is what attributes the good or bad name/reputation.

With a good reputation, you can easily get people to be on your side without having to force them unlike trying to use material wealth to influence people's opinion about you as they are being put in a state of fear.

I'm inviting @megareigns, @eveetim and @emily08 to partake in this contest.
