Yesterday in class we talked about people's names and if the person makes the name or the name makes the person. I believe that a person shapes the name, I know about 20 different Lauren's and all of them are different. I believe there are stereotypes for certain names, but that does not mean that the person with that name must live up to that stereotype. Since my name is highly unusual I get stereotyped a lot just from my name. Many people think that I am from a foreign Country just because of my name. They also do not expect me to be white a lot of the time, which is not a bad thing. I like my name and I would not change it no matter what.
Find out with your name means: (not actually factual, but fun)
