As we read The House on Mango Street, by Sandra Cisneros, we discover that not only doesn't Esperanza like her name, but she feels like it doesn't suit her; and it isn't a fulfillment of her personality. Please post and share with the class the following:
- What is the meaning of your name?
- What is the origin/culture of your name's meaning?
- What are some naming traditions in your culture?
- Do you feel like you are a fulfillment of your name? Why, or why not?
Remember to check back and respond to your classmates.
