Dream Symbol: name

name

Seeing or hearing a name can mean many different things, or it can just be a random dream event. Consider the context, and what it means to you personally, if anything.

Saying someone's name can mean you are focusing on that person or the idea of communicating with them.

Someone saying your name can mean that you're perceiving the focus to be on you, or you are thinking about someone communicating with you or trying to get your attention.

Someone calling you a bad name could represent feelings of being disrespected, taunted, or rejected somehow in your life.

Tips to Understand Dream Meaning

Dream symbol meanings are different for each person. It's IMPORTANT to consider:

  • Personal meaning - What the dream symbol means to you, what it reminds you of, how it makes you feel.
  • Context - How the dream symbol appears in the dream. For example, in a dream about a bee - what was the bee doing, how and where it was doing it, and how did you feel about it?
  • Look beyond the obvious - A dream is often about something other than its obvious meaning. Physical events in the dream commonly represent mental or emotional matters.
