다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

It is essential to understand American social values for better communication between Korea and America. This study is about American social value changes based on the trends in naming babies. Generally, parents throughout the world have expectations when they name their newborn babies. Social values include parents' views of life and occupations. This study analyzes, by decade, the top 20 American names used in naming the newborn for the last 110 years. The names are divided into types signifying power, justice, honor, and service in reference to scholars' classifications in this area. Thus this study arranges changes in American social values based on the interrelation between names and their types. The result of this study shows American parents' social values have changed during the last 110 years. This study finds its import in showing that American social value changes are reflected in naming the newborn. (University of Incheon)
