The government of Togo and co, should please stop being dependant on Nigeria, and opt in for other renewable sources of electricity...I don't need to give examples! We're still managing what we have...and the people of Nigeria are yet to enjoy 24hours constant power supply in some regions...I think Mr. President is trying though. They've been a good positive change since he resumed office... #GodBless9ja |

What's in a name? Potentially your future.
A host of research shows just how much your name
can affect your lifetime success, from your
hireability to your spending habits.
We took a look at the research and have
highlighted some of the surprising findings below:
If your name is easy to pronounce, people will
favor you more.
In a New York University study, researchers found
that people with easier-to-pronounce names often
have higher-status positions at work. One of the
psychologists, Adam Alter, explains to Wired ,
"When we can process a piece of information more
easily, when it's easier to comprehend, we come to
like it more." In a further study, Alter also found
that companies with simpler names and ticker
symbols performed better in the stock market.
If your name is common, you are more likely to
be hired.
In a study by Marquette University , names that
were viewed as the least unique were more likable.
People with common names were more likely to be
hired, and those with rare names were least likely
to be hired. That means that the Jameses, Marys,
Johns, and Patricias of the world are in luck .
If your name is uncommon, you are more likely
to be a delinquent.
A study at Shippensburg University revealed that
there is a strong relationship between the
popularity of one's first name and juvenile
delinquency. Researchers found that unpopular
names were positively correlated with juvenile
delinquency. While the names themselves are
probably not the cause of the criminal activity, they
may be related to factors that increase one's
tendency toward juvenile delinquency, such as low
socioeconomic status.
If you have a white-sounding name, you're more
likely to get hired.
In one study cited by The Atlantic , white-sounding
names like Emily Walsh and Greg Baker got nearly
50% more callbacks than candidates with black-
sounding names like Lakisha Washington and Jamal
Jones. Researchers determined that having a white-
sounding name is worth as much as eight years of
work experience .
If your name is closer to the beginning of the
alphabet, you might get into a better school.
In a study published in the Economics of Education
Review , researchers studied the relationship
between the position in the alphabet of students'
names and their admission chances at competitive
schools. The earlier in the alphabet a name came,
the more likely they were to be admitted.
If your last name is closer to the end of the
alphabet, you're more likely to be an impulse
spender.
According to one study, people with last names such
as Yardley or Zabar may be more susceptible to
promotional strategies like limited-time offers. The
authors speculate that spending your childhood at
the end of the roll call may make you want to jump
on offers before you miss the chance.
You are more likely to work in a company that
matches your initials.
Since we identify with our names, we prefer things
that are similar to them. In a Ghent University
study, researchers found that people are more
likely to work for companies matching their own
initials. For example, Amanda might work for
Amazon. The rarer the initials, the more likely
people were to work for companies with names
similar to their own.
Using your middle initial makes people think
you're smarter and more competent.
According to research published in the European
Journal of Social Psychology , using a middle initial
increases people's perceptions of your intellectual
capacity and performance . In one study, students
were asked to rate an essay with one of four styles
of author names. Not only did the authors with a
middle initial receive top marks, but the one with
the most initials, David F.P.R. Clark, received the
best reviews.
If your name sounds noble, you are more likely
to work in a high-ranking position.
In a European study, researchers studied German
names and ranks within companies. Those with last
names such as Kaiser ("emperor" or König ("king"
were in more managerial positions than those with
last names that referred to common occupations,
such as Koch ("cook" or Bauer ("farmer" . This is
because of associative cognition, which means that
the status linked to your name may influence how
people view you.
If you are a boy with a girl's name, you are
more likely to be suspended from school.
Northwestern University researchers studied a large
Florida school district from 1996 to 2000 and found
that boys with names most commonly given to girls
misbehaved more in middle school and were more
likely to disrupt their peers. Their behavioral
problems also led to increased disciplinary
problems and lower test scores for their friends as
well.
If you are a woman with a sexually ambiguous
name, you are more likely to succeed.
According to The Atlantic , in male-dominated fields
such as engineering and law, women with "sexually
ambiguous" names are more successful. One study
found that women with masculine names, such as
Leslie, Jan, or Cameron, are more successful in legal
careers.
Men with shorter first names are
overrepresented in the c-suite.
In 2011, LinkedIn analyzed more than 100 million
user profiles to find out which names are most
associated with the CEO position. The most common
names for men were short, often one-syllable
names like Bob, Jack, and Bruce. A name specialist
speculates that men in power may use nicknames
to offer a sense of friendliness and openness.
Women at the top are more likely to use their
full names.
In the same study, LinkedIn researchers found that
the most common names of female CEOs include
Deborah, Cynthia, and Carolyn. Unlike the men,
women may use their full names in an attempt to
project professionalism and gravitas, according to
the report.
