Since history began, the Vietnamese always believed in the significance of one's name. They have developed a very comprehensive system of naming one's children as it is believed that the name of a person strongly influences one's destiny and fate.
Astrologers, fortune tellers, academics and monks are consulted when
choosing a name for the new born. Most other cultures, however do not really believe in it and tend to brush it off as superstition. Whether you believe it or not, however, the other cultures are not spared
of this correlation.

One very good example is Lee Iacocca, whose name IACOCCA stands for :
I
Am
Chairman
Of
Chrysler
Corporation
America

coincidence?..........
Look at the following familiar examples.
Bush stands for :
Beat
Up
Saddam
Hussein !

Clinton stands for :
Call
Lewinsky,
I
Need
The
Oral (sex)
Now !

However, no one can beat this latest casualty in bad naming Osama (Bin Ladin) stands for:
Oh
Shit,
American
Missiles
Again!

With all these, you better believe in the 4000 year old Vietnamese culture and make sure you choose a good name for your children
