Name

Snowy streets
It seemed that spring is coming to Ankara but then it snowed 24 hours in row and everything is covered with snow again.

This blog post discusses why remembering a persons name is difficult. One given explanation for having difficulties to remember a name is that names are arbitrary and meaningless. Though in Turkey names have always a meaning and I have been asked many times what does my name mean. I was wondering that as Turkish names have a meaning can Turkish people actually remember a name then more easily.
