DO NOW
Many things help create our self-identity. One may be where we live, and another may be our name. Discuss the importance of your name or nickname to your personal identity. Does your name have a meaning? Is it special in your family? Do your friends call you by your given name or do you have a nickname? If you have a nickname, did others assign it to you? Do you like it? Why or why not?
