GAVIRIA, Alejandro; MEDINA, Carlos y PALAU, María del Mar. Las consecuencias económicas de un nombre atípico. El caso colombiano. El trimestre econ [online]. 2010, vol.77, n.307, pp.535-556. ISSN 2448-718X.
This paper attempts to explain the socioeconomic consequences of carrying an "atypical name" for the case of Colombia. The results from the first part of the paper indicate that young women, with less educated parents, living in rural areas, and belonging to ethnic minorities are more likely to carry an atypical name. The results from the second part show that carrying an atypical name may have a large impact upon earnings (over 10%). This effect is much greater for educated individuals than for non-educated ones.
