| Abstract: | Mizo names can be distinctly differentiated from other tribal names of the North-East. They can be specifically classified into different groups depending on the historical and cultural influences of the time. In the olden days, men of high position in the society - like kings, elders, and hunters for example, by virtue of unwritten customary laws, have the liberty to name their children in manner that would reflect their status. Even in the absence of formal written rules, the Mizos made sure that they remain true to their respective status within their community and most often do not indulge themselves beyond that. The advent of the Christian missionaries marked an altogether different period for the Mizos. The missionaries made every effort to change the tribal ways and the practices of the people by a combination of Christian principles and Western education. These changes were reflected very clearly in the Mizo names that were coined after the practice of Christianity, a custom which is still observed even today. After the Mizos became Christians, almost all names are in reverence to God. Other significant changes in the history of the Mizos like the period of the Mizo Nationalist Movement, an armed-struggle for a separate nation, revived Mizo nationalism and this also influenced the Mizos to coin names that reflect their loyalty to the Mizo identity. Incorporating all these issues into one context, this paper will study Mizo names and the process of naming through a semiotic and anthropological approach, thereby revealing how an understanding of Mizo names can assist one in gaining knowledge and meaning of Mizo culture, language, and identity. It will also show how the history of the Mizos has evolved in time and how these historical, linguistic, and cultural changes have helped in shaping Mizo identity. |
