Question

【题目】 Do you like your name? Names are important to us. We have to live with our names for our whole lifetime.

For this reason, some parents in the US and Europe try very hard to give their children special names. Some people even pay a" naming expert(专家)"to pick a name for them. It is expensive most of the time.

However, not all parents do this. Many people read baby naming books or look online for ideas.

It is common for parents to name their children after a relative(亲戚 ).Other parents name their kids after well-known like Austin or Brooklyn. Some parents give their children nature related names, like Reed or Autumn.

Some famous people have given their children strange name. For example, one artist named their child Audio Science, while another named their child Pirate(海盗).
