A Dream of Someone Possessed Calling You by Another Name - dream meaning with inherited lore
It may be a scene that makes a familiar relationship or role feel strange and prompts you to reflect on whose expectations you are responding to.
The possessed person looks at you as if they know you, but calls you by a completely different name. Even after you correct them several times, they repeat it, leaving you with the feeling that the face is familiar but the relationship is out of step.
Korean lore: Traditionally, scenes where a name changes or someone is called by the wrong name have sometimes been interpreted as signs of a shift in identity or the course of a relationship. If someone familiar called you by an unfamiliar name, it may also be seen as a sign of misunderstanding, even between people who are close. (In folk dream interpretations, a name is seen as revealing a person’s existence and connection with others, so scenes of calling someone’s name have long been read as reflecting changes in relationships.)
Through the mind: You may feel that at work or within your family, people call you only by a certain role or image rather than seeing who you really are. The scene may also reflect both a wish to be truly understood and a desire to reassess the relationship.
