1. THE NAME Experiment

Would a rose by any other name smell as sweet?  Can a Geraldine be a perfect ten?
Word association is perfectly natural; the word “vacation” brings happy thoughts of beaches and relaxation while the word “traffic” is likely to evoke anxiety, frustration, and boredom.  Whether we realize it or not, we also associate certain characteristics with people’s names.  Some of these associations are probably based on our personal experiences of past interactions.  If your crazy college ex-girlfriend was a Jessica, there’s a chance you’ll be wary of future Jessicas you meet.

But a recent study called “The Name Experiment” found that some name-based preconceived notions of people are universal.  They took 40 common names (20 male and 20 female) and polled the American public on how successful, lucky, and attractive each name sounds.  They found, for instance, that James and Elizabeth are the most successful sounding names.  And these preconceptions can become self-fulfilling prophesies, with a Richard (an old, Royal name that invokes success and intelligence) climbing the corporate ladder at an accelerated rate.
So what are the most attractive names?  Sophie and Ryan, according to the study.  Rounding out the top five for women are Rachel, Olivia, Karen, and Katie.  For men, James, Jack, Chris, and Michael also top the charts.  Rated least attractive were Jane, Ann, Thomas, and George.  The bad news for them doesn’t stop there, though.  The same four names also scored poorly on success and luck.

What makes a woman’s name sexy?  Anyone who has been to a strip club knows it’s the soft  “ee” sound.    You’ve never seen an Edna or a Margaret wrapped seductively around a pole, have you?  Of course not.  It’s the land of Barbie and Trixie.

For men, it’s short, harsh sounding names that are sexiest.  Other panty-dropping examples from the study are James, Jack, and Chris.  Scoring poorly for attractiveness is our yuppie example from earlier, Richard, along with other old traditional names like George, Thomas, and Peter.  So, Thomas, when you get home tonight and park your BMW in your private garage, remember to log on to Match.com, change your name to “Tom,” and watch the lovely ladies flock to you.
