Names have power

“Words have meaning and names have power”

I guess it’s true, that’s why some of the names of the buildings in Hong Kong are named in an interesting manner.I have got into the habit of looking at the names of the buildings in HK and they never fail to amuse me.

Some of the ones which caught my attention are called as:

• Wise Mansion (so this building is able to make good choices and decisions!)
• Right Mansion (this building is always correct!)
• Prosper gardens (this one says” grow and do well”)
• Valiant park (this building is very brave and determined)
• Happy Gardens (self-explanatory)
• Blessings Garden (in this building, the residents feel grateful)
• Balmy Court (a pleasant and gentle building)
• Rich Mansion (self-explanatory)
• Serene House, Serenity Park (it’s a peaceful building)
• Lucky Court etc....

(These are real names of the buildings). Maybe they were named so that the inhabitants of the concerned building acquire those characteristics
What about names like:
• Still Mansion (does it mean motionless or stagnant or quiet)
• Ambrosia (It is the food of god!)
• Pierce View (seems like a harsh word to me)
• Mellow Mansion (does it refer to serene, peaceful or asks the inhabitants to calm down and relax)
• Duet (Do people in the building sing Duets!)
• Makeway View (what do you think it means)
• The Sound (?)
• Vibes (good vibes or bad vibes?)
• Rednaxela Terrace (It’s the name Alexander written backwards!)

Interesting, but are they appropriate? There must be a story behind the naming of these buildings!
