Meaningful of a Name

One day I was teaching about a name 
       To some university students.
   I said, " some people pray to be 
              called nice names 
While they continue to publish their bad        
             names here and there." 
        Some students astonished,
The topic sounded  new in their ears.

A name represents  what  someone is doing.
You are called a nurse because you nursing. 
You are called a robber because you robbing.
You are called a corrupt because you corrupting.
You are called a learner because you learning. 
You are called a healer because you healing
You are called a killer because you killing.

You are called a liar because you lie.
You are called a hater because you hate. 
You are called a witch because you bewitch. 
You are called a teacher because you teach.

You are called a magician because you do magic. 
You are called misician because you do music.
You are hypocrite because you do hypocrisy. 
You are called polygamist because you are in polygamy. 
You are called a prophet because you   prophesy.
