Researchers from Reichman University claim that your face may have evolved to match your name. Previous research has found that most of us can guess the name of a complete stranger with up to 40% accuracy, but this study claims the name somehow shapes the face. The team found that while children and adults could accurately link an adult’s face with their name, the task was harder to perform when it came to kids and their monikers. This could suggest that your name is something like a self-fulfilling prophecy. “One of our most unique and individual physical components, our facial appearance, can be shaped by a social factor, our name,” researchers wrote.
