Hold onto Your Namesake with Name Jewelry
You might have been one of the little tots on the playground back in the day, sporting the latest craze in sneakers. Not to mention, maybe you had a sparkle on your wrist as you moved. Or even a flashing of gold or silver across your neck that you might have toyed with in curiosity. As a child, nothing could be considered more precious than getting a little piece of jewelry with your name on it. When you’re young, your name is still so new to you. The meaning behind it, the spelling, and the subtle curves of the letters when you wrote it on paper were still fascinating. Then, to have your name in precious metal was miraculous. It was a proud moment to be able to actually wear your name in shining letters. Whether it was a necklace or Name rings, as a child the gift was phenomenal. And always so fashionable.
And yet, some people lose that childlike wonder for his or her name as they grow older. A person can grow so accustomed to writing their name on essay after essay, or signing endless credit card bills, that the wonder and mystery of a person’s name is gone. It’s a travesty, because a name is the most precious possession a person has. The meaning and origin behind a name can hold such power over the person you become, it seems disastrous to lose sight of your name’s importance. Name pendants may seem like it’s targeted towards a younger crowd. But as an adult, it could be even more valuable. The longer you spend with your name, the most it becomes a part of you. The self-worth of having your name on a necklace or ring can be beyond moving. A piece you’ll treasure forever.
Not that such jewelry is rare in more adult settings. It is a marvelous idea to even add more meaning to an heirloom or ring, which you already hold dear, and have your name carved into it. Giving someone jewelry with your name on it is also a great gift idea. jewelry gifts can be daunting to pick out when selections are so wide and varied. But getting someone you love a piece of jewelry with their name on it makes it all the more personal and thoughtful.
Even if you weren’t one of the children on the playground with your name on your jewelry, never fear. There’s always time to find that new found love for your name and celebrate it. Make a statement and show your personal style. Tell the world who you are.
