Name-dropping is the practice of mentioning important people or institutions within a conversation,story,song, online identity, or other communication. The term often connotes an attempt to impress others; it is usually regarded negatively, and under certain circumstances may constitute a breach of professional ethics. When used as part of a logical argument it can be an example of the false authority fallacy.
A shout-out is a type of name-dropping where a list of names or someone's name is spoken out expressly to direct attention at these groups or individuals, often as a means of expressing kudos or making a referral.
American essayist Joseph Epstein defines name dropping as follows :
name-dropping [...] is using the magic that adheres to the names of celebrated people to establish one's superiority while at the same time making the next person feel the drabness of his or her own life. Name-dropping is a division of snobbery, and one of the snob's missions is to encourage a feeling however vague of hopelessness in others.
