The body of this article is constituted by a content analysis of some messages posted on the chosen Polish Internet forums, messages devoted to the topic of the motivation and evaluation of first names. The posts concerning the stereotypical evaluation of some names claim that the naming of the child determines, to some extent, his/her future fate and personality. On the one hand, the tendencies to choose original, distinctive names for children and thus to ensure them extraordinary lives, are clearly visible. On the other hand, naming children according to the patterns that can be traced in the family or simply giving those old-fashioned names proves that the strength of tradition and family customs are still held in high esteem. This article contains a number of posted messages which prove the existence of the above-mentioned tendencies. An Internet forum can be interpreted as an area of „shared knowledge” which is formed by the forum users and therefore is credible, authentic and spontaneous. It can also be an important context for scholars concerned with proper names who seek authentic statements about the evaluation and motivation of the act of naming.
