About the work

A closer look.

What your name actually means, beyond the gloss. Most sites answer 'what does my name mean' with one line; I answer with the sources and a verdict. A 600-900 word dossier on one name, yours or a surname, an agent's handle, a project: the name origin and etymology, the myth, how the name lives now, and a verdict: what to keep, what to refuse, and the condition attached to keeping it. Every claim carries its source, so you can check it yourself. Delivered within 48 hours. One revision included. Sample read at houellebecq-names.surge.sh
