  • African Names and Naming Practices: the Impact Slavery and European
    African Names and Naming Practices: The Impact Slavery and European Domination had on the African Psyche, Identity and Protest THESIS Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Liseli A. Fitzpatrick, B.A. Graduate Program in African American and African Studies The Ohio State University 2012 Thesis Committee: Lupenga Mphande, Advisor Leslie Alexander Judson Jeffries Copyrighted by Liseli Anne Maria-Teresa Fitzpatrick 2012 Abstract This study on African naming practices during slavery and its aftermath examines the centrality of names and naming in creating, suppressing, retaining and reclaiming African identity and memory. Based on recent scholarly studies, it is clear that several elements of African cultural practices have survived the oppressive onslaught of slavery and European domination. However, most historical inquiries that explore African culture in the Americas have tended to focus largely on retentions that pertain to cultural forms such as religion, dance, dress, music, food, and language leaving out, perhaps, equally important aspects of cultural retentions in the African Diaspora, such as naming practices and their psychological significance. In this study, I investigate African names and naming practices on the African continent, the United States and the Caribbean, not merely as elements of cultural retention, but also as forms of resistance – and their importance to the construction of identity and memory for persons of African descent. As such, this study examines how European colonizers attacked and defiled African names and naming systems to suppress and erase African identity – since names not only aid in the construction of identity, but also concretize a people’s collective memory by recording the circumstances of their experiences.

NEW INFLUENCES ON NAMING PATTERNS IN VICTORIAN BRITAIN Amy M. Hasfjord 176 Pages This thesis examines a major shift in naming patterns that occurred in Victorian Britain, roughly between 1840 and 1900, though with roots dating back to the mid-18 th century. Until approximately 1840, most new names in England that achieved wide popularity had their origins in royal and/or religious influence. The upper middle classes changed this pattern during the Victorian era by introducing a number of new names that came from popular print culture. These names are determined based on a study collecting 10,000 men’s and 10,000 women’s names from marriage announcements in the London Times. Many of these new names were inspired by the medieval revival, and that movement is treated in detail.

  • The Production of Legal Identities Proper to States: the Case of the Permanent Family Surname
    The Production of Legal Identities Proper to States: The Case of the Permanent Family Surname JAMES C. SCOTT, JOHN TEHRANIAN, AND JEREMY MATHIAS Yale University We name a thing and—bang!—it leaps into existence. Each name a perfect equation with its roots. A perfect congruence with its reality. (Yolland and Owen) But remember that words are signals, counters. They are not immortal. And it can hap- pen—to use an image you’ll understand—it can happen that a civilisation can be im- prisoned in a linguistic contour which no longer matches the landscape of . fact. (Hugh) I’ll decode you yet. (Yolland1) i. introduction State naming practices and local, customary naming practices are strikingly dif- ferent. Each set of practices is designed to make the human and physical land- scape legible, by sharply identifying a unique individual, a household, or a sin- gular geographic feature. Yet they are each devised by very distinct agents for whom the purposes of identification are radically different. Purely local, cus- tomary practices, as we shall see, achieve a level of precision and clarity—of- ten with impressive economy—perfectly suited to the needs of knowledgeable locals. State naming practices are, by contrast, constructed to guide an official ‘stranger’ in identifying unambiguously persons and places, not just in a single locality, but in many localities using standardized administrative techniques. There is no State-making without State-naming To follow the progress of state-making is, among other things, to trace the elab- oration and application of novel systems which name and classify places, roads, people, and, above all, property.

  • Global Medical Device Nomenclature (GMDN)
    Global Medical Device Nomenclature (GMDN) GMDN – A Requirement for UDI Mark Wasmuth – CEO, GMDN Agency What we will be discussing Why is the GMDN needed GMDN data structure How to find GMDN terms Unique Device Identification UDI & GMDN Relationship Examples of GMDN in use Questions? 2 Why the need for Device names? Large variety of devices! 3 Why is consistent naming important? Medical Devices are traded internationally Regulators need to approve devices efficiently by identifying the product group and the related hazards / risks Regulators need to identify ‘systematic’ failures of medical devices Hospitals can identify the products they need and manage their inventory 4 Why was the GMDN needed? Existing nomenclatures: ‘National’ systems (not suitable for international harmonisation) & Single language Unstructured / un-standardised Too vague / poor definitions Too rigid – difficult to include new technology Can’t keep up with volume of innovation Too many duplicates / overlaps Uncontrolled – no update method for users Not meeting Regulator needs 5 What is the GMDN? Global Medical Device Nomenclature (GMDN) The international standard (ISO 15225) for naming Medical Devices Used by 65 national Medical Device Regulators - Backed by IMDRF Over 4000 Manufacturers worldwide Translated into 25 languages 22,000 Preferred Terms with Definitions Controlled distribution and updating International acceptance 6 Global acceptance?
