The Importance of Learning Names
A person’s name is the greatest connection to their own identity and individuality. Some might say it is the most important word in the world to that person.
They carry deep personal, cultural, familial, and historical connections. They also give us a sense of who we are, the communities in which we belong, and our place in the world.

I loved this episode, Ming! The mini hints you shared about learning and remembering names, like asking for pronunciation and using first names, are such thoughtful ways to show respect and build connections.
