Pastrarea identitatii prin nume in contextul globalizarii
The preservation of identity through name in the context of globalization

Summary/Abstract: Globalization is a very used term which can assign many meanings. Globalization is a relatively recent term that distinguishes the present from what happened 50 years ago or even 25 years ago.International capital movements accelerated in the early ‘80s when Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher, financial markets become truly global in the early ‘90s, after the collapse of the Soviet empire. Following a study made by the Belgian Professor Jan Deboel from The University of Political and Social Sciences, it was demonstrated that people consciously and subconsciously trying to behave as the name suggests, and of course, their Christian name. If it was a time when the new/born baby was baptized with the Christian name of his godparents, nowadays the parents are the ones who decide the Christian name of their baby. It’s a tough choice, since the name will carry throughout life and therefore must be nice, must mean something and must be „fashionable”.
