What makes you YOU?

A rose by any other name... Do you really believe that?

The truth is, your name contains a lot of information about you. The next time you see someone's name written on a piece of paper, take a moment and think about that name and who it is attached to. Try to recall the thoughts you had.

In reality, whenever anyone thinks about you, they begin trying to understand a little more about you - get a feeling for who you really are. This happens whether they've just met you, have known you for a long time, or just received a slip of paper with your name written on it. So what's in a name? In today's mobile and connected world - everything.

Just imagine what would happen if you went through an entire day using a different name. Now imagine what could happen if a thief went through an entire day using your name. How much trouble could a thief cause in a day? And how much of that trouble could you be faulted for?
