The Maker of all things, made, Man and other living creatures, and then decides to bring those living creatures to one of the creatures He made, to name them. The reason being, that He honours that particular one. When you honour or love something or someone, you treat them in a special way, you overlook their shortcomings, inadequacies, lack of knowledge or understanding and faults. You overrate them.
This is evident in Genesis 2:19-20; Now the Lord God had formed out of the ground all the wild animals and all the birds in the sky. He brought them to the man to see what he would name them; and whatever the man called each living creature, that was its name. 20 So the man gave names to all the livestock, the birds in the sky and all the wild animals.
Love according to 1 Cor.13:4-8; Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonour others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. 8 Love never fails. This can be the only explanation for the reason why God overrates man. That is, God loves man, despite the fact that man keeps disappointing God, and He knows that, but God is patient, kind, does not boast, is not proud, does not dishonour man. God is selfless (He died for our sins, took on the punishment we deserved, upon Himself). God is not easily angered, and He keeps no record of our wrongs, once we are repentant. God does not delight in evil. He is the Spirit of Truth. God always protects, always trusts, God always hopes (that man will change, repent, even to the last moment). God always perseveres, and finally according to Psalm 62 verse 12; and with you, Lord, is unfailing love”. God overrates man because He loves man.
