Name is to identify or distinguish one person or thing from other similar ones. The definition of a proper Noun will explain it ! Meaning of a name depends on how best it describes the object being named ! For instance, no point in naming a beautiful girl as Miss Ugly ! Most societies today have failed to recognise this and have fancy names to their children ! In ancient Indian tradition, naming was really meaningful many years ago, but today, it is not so !

A name is a label for a thing, person, place, product (as in a brand name) and even an idea or concept, normally used to distinguish one from another. Names can identify a class or category of things, or a single thing, either uniquely, or within a given context. A name for a specific unique and identifiable individual living being (including animals, pluralities, or ethnic groups), is sometimes called a proper name and is a proper noun. Other nouns are sometimes, more loosely, called names; an older term for them, now obsolete is general name.
The use of personal names is not unique to humans. Dolphins also use symbolic names, as has been shown by recent research. Individual dolphins have individual whistles, to which they will respond even when there is no other information to clarify which dolphin is being referred to.
