Names: What do they truly stand for?
As I reached the ending of Lucy, I concluded that just like Lucy, we often have our own meaning behind our names. Names our often what shapes you, and how it reflects on oneself. We are often given nicknames in which people characterize or define us through shorter names then our given name. Some people are named after relatives, finding similar qualities later on in their life relating to the person’s identity. I do not feel though names have personalities themselves. When we are given a name at birth, as we grow older we shape our name by doing the things we do. We represent our own name by being the individual that we are. Names clearly have meaning and reflect upon what we do with our own lives to shape it’s meaning.
