Question The boy called Napoleon was about to spend some time in Shane Dunphys company because of his misconduct. 2 Napoleon knew four kids that were called after major historical figures even before he was 12. 3 Napoleon is currently one of 68 most popular baby names in UK and Irerland. 4 The boy called Marion often fought with other kids because of his name. 5 Napoleon was afraid he wouldt be up to his fathers expectations. 6 The Book of Baby names suggests parents to give names to their children only after their close family relatives. 7 The girl called Michael was lucky to be renamed Michaela. 8 The boy called Tom Tom was given his name after his fathers nickname. 9 According to the research, only girls with feminine names can develop behavioural traits that reflect their names. 10 The newly arrived child should be given a name by the childs parents immediately upon birth to avoid the posibility of other people influencing its choice. 1

Half of Britain's primary school children use mobile phones and many have digital cordless phones at home, which emit microwave radiation in the same way. The Health Protection Agency, which is responsible for safety in this area, states that these operate within internationally agreed safe limits. But many experts believe young people, in particular, are more susceptible to the microwave radiation produced by mobiles - and therefore increased risk of brain tumours and other cancers of the head and neck. It is thought that radiation emitted by phones is absorbed by the body, damaging the cells. 'Mobiles were originally designed to be used for short, urgent calls,' says Professor Shakeel Saeed, an ear and brain specialist at University College London. 'But young people use them like any other phone, often for long periods.' While death rates for all the other major cancers are falling, 'for brain cancer they are rising', according to charity Brain Tumour Research. And worse, it is claiming more children,' says its chairman Wendy Fulcher. In the UK, cases among children are increasing by almost three per cent a year, with most childhood brain tumours occurring in one to two-year-olds. But how could brain cancer in children too young to own phones be connected to them? When Interphone was launched, there were few sources of radiation in children's everyday lives. But these have increased and could start before birth, says Professor Denis Henshaw, head of the radiation research group at Bristol University. Epidemiologists from McGill University in Montreal revealed that women who worked in low-frequency magnetic environments when pregnant, such as machinists, hairdressers, nurses and dry-cleaners, were twice as likely to have babies that developed brain tumours. 'Lowfrequency magnetic fields can suppress production of melatonin, which in pregnant women will deprive the foetal brain of the protective hormone,' says Professor Henshaw, patron of the charity Children with Cancer. The effect on babies and children does not stop there, according to Professor Stefaan van Gool, who treats children with brain cancer at Leuven Catholic University, Belgium. 'Cordless baby alarms, toys and phones expose children to daily radiation. Although the intensity is less than a mobile, children are more susceptible to the effects. A lot of young children have Wi-Fi at school, so their exposure is continual.'
Professor Lennart Hardell says: 'Why wait for conclusive evidence? Children deserve to be protected and we have enough data to justify warnings and restrictions for them.' Some countries agree. The Russian Health Protection Agency has advised the government to ban mobile use for under-18s. France is introducing legislation to ban advertising of mobiles to under-14s and their use in nurseries and primary schools. In Salzburg, Austria, Wi-Fi is banned in schools. Here, in the UK, the Department of Health circulated leaflets in 2000 advising that children limit use to 'short, essential calls'. Its more recent advice, that care should be taken 'in particular with the use of handsets by very young children', was posted only on its website. The Mobile Operators Association, meanwhile, dismisses the research as inconclusive and holds to its position that, after the age of two, children's brains are no more vulnerable to microwave emissions than adults' so standard safety limits protect them. 'We know electromagnetic radiation can affect human cells,' says neurosurgeon Dr Ron Beaney of Guy's and St Thomas hospital in London. 'The jury may still technically be out on the link with brain cancer but, in the meantime, most authorities are saying be careful. 'I routinely ask my patients about their mobile phone use and, like many clinicians, strongly urge caution over use. Use landlines where possible, text rather than call and switch off your phone when not in use. 'The cost of failing to do this could be significant.' Adapted from The Dailymail

'My name was always a topic of conversation when I was growing up," the boy told me. He was a tall, dark haired 14-year-old. He was sitting in the observation room of the child protection unit where I was based, about to spend an hour in my company because of extremely violent outbursts at his school. A cursory look at his file indicated a possible source of stress: this young man's name was Napoleon. How could such a mantle not attract ridicule and heartache? "I mean, how many other kids were called after major historical figures?" he asked in exasperation. "There weren't too many Attilas, Hannibals or Wellingtons. I was 12 before I even met an Alexander, for God's sake!" In the torrid world of celebrity, Wayne Rooney and his wife Coleen have just been blessed with a healthy baby boy, whom they have named Kai. Kai is currently the 68th most popular baby name in Ireland and the UK. Napoleon does not feature in the ranking. Names do not have to be so eccentrically unique to cause problems. Another young man I worked with became the subject of serious bullying through being given the name Marion. This was again the result of his father, a fan of John Wayne. Failing to notice that the screen icon changed his rather effeminate title as soon as he possibly could, Marion's father followed the path of the evil Dad in Johnny Cash's 'Boy Named Sue', and cursed his son to a childhood of fighting and anguish. In this instance, there was nothing to be done except literally have the child's name legally altered -- he also became John,
possibly the most ordinary name he could think of, while, of course, keeping his father happy. The fact is, unusual names more often than not say more about the parents than they do about the poor child who is lumbered with them. Napoleon Bonaparte was an idol of the accordingly labelled boy's father, an ex-military man who had studied the diminutive Emperor's achievements in college. "I was always told how great this guy was, how he was a brilliant soldier and politician, how he shaped the way the world is governed today -- I always thought I was expected to live up to that, somehow. That if I did anything to let down the image of this dead white man, I was also letting my father down. And it didn't help that the name caused me to have the piss taken out of me from the second I started school." There are countless books and websites which deal with naming your child, and most posit the advice that parents should consider a number of factors when choosing the label by which their progeny will be known for the rest of their lives. After all, children do not have any say whatsoever in what they are to be called. The Bumper Book of Baby Names warns parents to consider names which reflect their child's personality, and suggest qualities of strength or compassion to which they can aspire. In other words, the name given to a child should be a gift, and reflect the persona of the child as an individual -- yet so often, this is flagrantly ignored. Familial bonds can be the cause of problems, too. I once worked with an eight-year-old girl whose parents had seen fit to name her after her maternal grandfather -- Michael. The sensible thing may have been to call her Michaela, but they chose to go with the masculine. All young Michael's aunts and uncles had also had girls, and the entire family had wanted a boy to be born this time around. Alas, it was just not to be, and so this final daughter was saddled with a man's name. It took much persuasion -- and six months' worth of visits to a child psychologist -- to add that extra vowel.
Keeping a family tradition does not always mean adopting a grandparent's name. I worked with a child in care whose given name was Tom Tom. His father was a drummer, and this had been his nick-name during his glory days. Our names are hugely significant to us psychologically, and while we may fantasise about having tougher titles, most of us would never trade up for anything else. This is because our names become hard-wired into our psyches, and can even influence our personalities. Research has shown that, for example, girls with very feminine names like Daisy or Poppy, can develop attitudes and behavioural traits which mirror that. Similarly, underneath his anger, Napoleon's teachers all agreed that he was a very strong individual, with clearly defined leadership qualities. The message seems to be that choosing a name for your newly arrived child should never be done in haste. Remember, you -- and your little prince or princess -- will have to live with it for many years to come. A brief look at the names many parents -- both inside and outside the world of celebrity -- inflict upon their children shows that the act is regularly used as an exercise in attracting tabloid attention and pseudo-intellectual posturing than it is cementing a child's future success -- or sanity.
