Prof. I.M. Nick, a past ANS President and current Editor-In-Chief of Names: A Journal of Onomastics, appeared on the NPR program 1A from Washington, DC station WAMU last Wednesday. The show, titled “What’s in a Name”, asked two important questions about the personal names that we use: “what role do names play in society today? And how should we think about what we call each other going forward?” Listen to the full show, including Prof. Nick’s interview, online over at the1A.org.
