What you think of a name depends so much on the people you know by that name.
Meaning of the quote
The way you feel about a name is often based on the people you know who have that name. If you know a person with a certain name and you like them, then you might associate that name with positive feelings. But if you know someone with the same name and you don't like them, then you might have a different, less positive opinion of that name. The people you know really shape how you think about a name.
