Among the different types of jewellery, personalised jewellery always carries a special meaning. A named necklace or a bracelet will definitely make you feel like own something so unique to you. By gifting personalised jewellery, you are letting your loved ones know how much you value them by having something customised. It is more than announcing your name to the people around you. It marks a piece of jewellery as a personal part of your accessory and one they are proud to wear.
Women go through life collecting pieces of jewellery, from small trinkets to grand necklaces. With an eye to their long-term usability, each piece is chosen carefully. Often, they start in their infancy when they receive gifts from family and friends. They get earrings, pendant necklaces, or bracelets. One of the ways families personalise the occasion of the child’s birth is to buy a name necklace, either an alphabet necklace or their names in full. This piece of jewellery never goes out of style, and children, young or well into their adulthood, continue to hold on to it with particular fondness.
Name necklaces or bracelets also symbolise one’s identity. You could say that it is a statement of existence and your place in the world around you. However, there is also the more recent trend of wearing someone else’s name as a sign of love and affection.
Why are Name necklaces so popular?
From Carrie Brandshaw in SOTC, the name necklaces have made a comeback and how! With some as simple as just the name in gold to more elaborate ones with diamonds and gemstones surrounding the name, they are in vogue. The big plus is that they are so versatile and can be worn by a child, teenager, young adult, and even older. They go with sports outfits, jeans, and a more formal outfit. On special occasions, they can be worn even with a traditional lehenga or saree.
Types of Name necklaces
You can have your name engraved and wear it every day. It is a fitting accessory even to wear to work. You can further customise it by choosing a different metal if you don’t want to go for gold. There are numerous designs and patterns you can choose from, to make the necklace uniquely yours.
Wear the name of a favourite pet or person in love and memory. We all take those sentimental journeys to remember the ones we loved and lost, be it a pet, friend, or grandparent. A name necklace seems to be the easiest way to hold a piece of your loved ones close to your heart.
While you are at it, why not wear the name of your best friend or partner? That’s right. You can have a name necklace bearing not your name but your partner’s. Is there a better way to show how much they mean to you? Even better, wearing both names shouts romance like nothing else!
Customised Name necklaces
Name necklaces can be customised with birthstones or a symbol, such as the infinity diamond pendant necklace. For example, the Infinity personalised gemstone necklace in rose gold symbolises all that you can ask for – infinite love! What probably started in the 1980s has evolved into different styles and designs, including birthstones, gemstones, multi-named pendants, different font styles, intricate or minimalistic designs, religious or identity-based designs, etc. A simple name necklace like the Forever mine gemstone personalised necklace becomes grand with a pearl and your birthstone.
It is an excellent opportunity for self-expression and to wear nicknames or a hashtag that only you or your partner can identify with, making it even more personal. And, if you wish to add a bit of mystery, you could wear a necklace with only a first or last name initials. They are particularly alluring when they have a dynamic monogram design. Name necklaces, monogrammed or not, make great gifts for your family, friends, and your significant other.
Like the Linear bar personalised diamond necklace, name bars come in gold, silver, or platinum and can be a vertical or horizontal design. They are sleek and contemporary designs and showcase your name without carved or monogrammed text. Name necklaces are often given at birthday milestones, like the 16th or 18th.
You have initials and diamonds lending the necklace the right amount of glow for a more luxurious look, as in the Alphabet V Diamond pendant necklace. Know that the V can be substituted with any letter of your choice and made in the same design. Diamonds always create more flash, and even gemstones highlighting the initials can take the style up a notch or two.
With the many types and designs of Name necklaces that abound, shouldn’t you have your own collection? We believe you should, and you can. CaratLane offers inspired choices with lustrous gold, silver, and platinum with initials or your name in full, with or without glittering diamonds. Name necklaces are here to stay and can be part of your collection. What’s more, you can continue to add a few charms or gemstones to add to the Name necklace every chance you get!
