Ya ali madad, Do you guys think one's name has significant influence on his or her life. I came across an article on  "Names and their Influence on one's Life". I kinda disagree with wht 's in the article.I would like to know your opinions about the name and its influence.

In my view its surely effects one life . I know and hear couple of cases in which either hazar imam or mukhi saib changed name of the chidren b/c such children were suffering from severe illness. and we do counter with people having strong name like hamza having strong personality b/c it also create impression on others too (which may be wrong) but at first instance u think tht person having name with like of hamza is men of strongwill and power.

"It is very bad that you give your children christian names like Jimmy, John, Tommy etc. The Islamic names, which you have been given, are very good. Do you think that by keeping christian names you will become civilized? Just by keeping English names one does not become civilized. Therefore, you should keep Islamic names from the list of Prophets, Imams and Pirs." {Imam Sultan Mohamed Shah, Zanzibar 1-7-1945}
