Man promoted to high position, becomes business owner thanks to unique name

"Many people saw my name on social media and mistook my name as Thai and thought I sold organic food. When I explained that it was my full name, everyone was surprised," Thai Huu Co (living in Tan Phu district, Ho Chi Minh City) explained with a smile.

Having a unique name, Mr. Co said that he feels happy and excited because he can impress others right from the first meeting. Every time he attends an event, when the host introduces his name, everyone looks around to see who is the owner of that unique name.

Mr. Huu Co said that his name was given to him by his grandfather, meaning things that are clean and useful to the community. In his family, his grandfather is the one who names his grandchildren. He always chooses meaningful names. Not only him but his sisters also have similar special names such as Thai Thanh Sam, Thai Thanh Long, etc.

"The name Huu Co is strange, so when I was a kid and went to school, my friends often read it backwards to tease me, making me cry. But the older I get, the happier I am because my name is truly unique, and I don't have to think about how to avoid duplicating it with someone else's.

Gradually, that name became my personal brand. Whenever Thai Huu Co was mentioned, others would remember me. So from a young age, I was aware of my brand value and was always serious and meticulous with it," Mr. Co confided.

In addition to his unique and impressive name, Mr. Co is loved wherever he goes thanks to his personality (Photo: Character provided).

Thanks to his impressive name, his hard work and his likeable personality, from an ordinary salesman, Mr. Co became the CEO of a Korean corporation. At that time, he was only 33 years old.

After many years of experience and learning at a Korean company, Mr. Co quit his job to start a business, establishing a company specializing in furniture. From here, thanks to his unique name, he made an impression and gradually convinced customers, gaining their trust.

He believes that building brand value is very important. Every person has their own value, if we can promote and exploit that difference, then brand value will naturally bring unexpected results.

Mr. Co was born in Nghe An, grew up in Ca Mau and started his career in Ho Chi Minh City. When he got married and had two children, he also gave them special names: Thai Ngoc Phuong Du and Thai Vu Dinh.

Mr. Co received a certificate of merit for volunteering to participate in the prevention and control of the Covid-19 epidemic (Photo: Character provided).

His hobby is driving to many places, helping many people. At the time of the Covid-19 outbreak, he was one of the volunteers participating in transporting hundreds of tons of goods, supporting the front line against the epidemic.

Previously, he also caused a "storm" on social networks thanks to a clip of him standing in the rain, digging through garbage in a sewer with his bare hands, helping to clear the flow to reduce flooding.
