My
name is a very common one. It can be seen on billboards, TV, and even the night
sky. I have met a lot of people with my name. It can get pretty annoying when I
have to share my name with the person next to me and be left guessing when
someone calls out ”Ryan”.
When
I was in baseball there were three other guys with my name. My name was Gordon
when I was on the team. My coach would always call me Flash Gordon and I would
have no idea what that meant. I always thought it had to do with my slow
running.
The name “Ryan” comes
from Irish and means “king”. My middle name, Michael, was passed down from my
dad. It was the name of an archangel in the bible and means “who is like god”.
My last name is Gordon and means “great hill”. Altogether my name means “King
who is like god of the great hill.”
That was actually really cool how you chained your names together and came up with an overall meaning
ReplyDeleteGood job ! Now you just have to find a hill.... (: ~Ivy
ReplyDeleteI loved how you put all of the meanings of your name together.
ReplyDeleteI liked how you said what your whole name meant & what it meant altogether.
ReplyDeleteI like how you told about your coach giving you a different name, I can relate to that
ReplyDeleteRan, great job! Did you ever figure out who Flash Gordon is?
ReplyDeleteI liked how you told the history about your name and how it gets annoying sharing your name with others because I share that burden.
ReplyDeleteI liked how you explained what your name meant all together
ReplyDeleteI like how all the meanings of your name fit into one big sentence. That's really neat. Most people's names don't do that.
ReplyDeleteI liked how you put the history of your name in it. I also liked how you put the baseball part in it. Good Job!
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed yours, I liked how you told a story in it, and how you did the meaning of your name and put it into a sentence, very nice.
ReplyDeleteI liked how you defined your whole name separate and then put it together , really creative... I also liked how you told the story of when you were in baseball , I found that funny.
ReplyDeleteI thought your poem was good and I like the story about your baseball team.
ReplyDeleteI love how you referenced your name in the night sky. That was very clever. I also like the full translation of your name.
ReplyDeleteI really loved the beginning. It was really personal and interesting to hear how you felt about your name. Good job !
ReplyDeleteI liked how you combined the meaning of all your names
