Abstract
This study looks into how lawyers in Pakistan choose their names. It aims to understand the cultural and mental reasons behind these decisions, focusing on a “Cult of Creed” within the legal profession mainly. To do this research, a collection of Gujranwala lawyer’s names was made by the researcher and then listed those which had last-names too. A careful selection process was used to pick the 50 most often-used names. We studied the names and used a social and psychological theory to help guide our work on legal name analysis. Studies showed that when lawyers from Pakistan chose names, they were greatly influenced by their culture and beliefs. This shows how hard identity can be in the legal world. This research shows how social-mental language practices, like naming customs, really work. It stresses the key part culture and religion play inside law people groups. The study suggests that teaching about different cultures, religions and training in law education can help make laws friendlier and more equal in Pakistan
