Trying to find just the right name for your protagonist? According to the AOL Find a Job site, one of the biggest studies on names was conducted by the Sinrod Marketing Group's International Opinion panel. After surveying 75,000 adults, the panel found that names people associated with intelligence, for example, include:
Women: Abigail, Alexis, Grace, Leah, Meryl and Vanessa
Men: Alexander, David, John, Kenneth, Samuel, and Tim
Names most associated with leadership include:
Women: Ruth
Men: Alexander, Dwight and Lance
When it comes to being hardworking, the edge goes to:
Women: Ada, Ingrid, Marie and Margaret
Men: Jake, Manuel, Rod and Todd
The item was posted by M. Wolfe (now there's an almost excellent name...)
