What's in a Name?

As we continue to prepare for our online journey, we'll be looking at online personas and safety rules. The whole experience of deciding how we want to be perceived is very important. In our culture, we really don't have much choice in our given names since we are named at birth. Do you know how you were named? Are you satisfied with your name?
I read somewhere that over 50% of Americans surveyed didn't like their given names. Does that seem a little high?

Today we'll investigate your names. This is your chance to rename yourself if you would like, or you can simply choose to be known on our
blog by your given name or nickname...no last names, please.

If you click on the following site, you'll find a list of the most popular baby names over the years. Give this some thought. We'll be signing up for names and email addresses tomorrow! Another site we'll look at in class is Baby Names for Dummies
