Names are often the first things we learn about other people. When you introduce someone to a new person, you lead with their name. Our names help us define who we are and what we represent. Names often have special history and meaning, based on our cultural backgrounds and family history. Are there any traditions regarding names in your family? Examples could be things like, "All the boys in my family have Johnathan for their middle name," or "All of our initials in my family are SLM." Names can also have cultural connotations. Some names may be handed down through religious or cultural practices. Can you think of any examples from your families or friends' families? For example, a Hispanic tradition calls for children to assume their mother's maiden name as part of their hyphenated last name. Think about your name . Where did it come from? What does it mean? What does it mean to me? Does my name accurately represent who I am?
