Aura (OP). What I’m going to say should not be taken as judgmental, in any way. But there is a story recounted in the Gemara where Rabbi Meir and one of his companions arrived in a town on Erev Shabbos and they were looking for a trustworthy person to keep their money over Shabbos. When they inquired about his name, he answered, “Kidor”. R. Meir said “I don’t trust a person with such name”. He did not leave his valuables with him. But his friend did. After Shabbat, when the depositor asked for his money (and other valuables) back, he (“Kidor”) denied ever having taken any money from him. The story is much longer and not suitable for this forum. But, the lesson to be taken from this (Again, not being judgmental)is, that sometimes someone’s personality can be judged by their name.
