Hi I’m Grayson Lee Griffith, I want to tell you about my story. I was born in Plano, Texas and I have lived my whole life in Texas. My name was thought up when my parents lived in California, they chose my name because there wasn’t any Grayson in California so my parents chose that name. Though when they moved to Highland Village, Texas so many kids were named Grayson. My middle name is Lee because my Nana’s middle name is also Lee and they wanted me to have the same middle name as my Nana. My last name has a heritage, my last name Griffith is an American last name but my family studied many faiths such as Christianity, Judaism, and Catholicism. Though before my parents even began thinking of a name for me they called me Boo from the movie
Throughout my short life span I have been blessed with the opportunity to work for one of the most driven farming establishments in Kansas. The person leading the way? Brian Vulgamore. Brian has been in my life since I was a toddler. I personally believe without Brian in my life, I would not have the opportunity to attend college and pursue my dreams. A man of many attributes, he [Brian] has inspired me to seek the very best in life, and always strive for the greatest opportunities.
My full name is Jason Accardi Junior. I was confirmed in the Catholic Church at the age of 14 and received the name John Bosco for my confirmation Saint. The reason I was named Jason because of my father Jason. I do not have a middle name because my father does not have a middle name; therefore for me to be a junior, I could not have a middle name either. The reason my father wanted to name me after him was because it was the only name he could picture me as being. My mother wanted other names for me but my dad was determined and had his mindset to name me after him. He wanted to start a tradition or a legacy of the name Jason through the Accardi bloodline.
I was an infamous American bank robber who helped shape police and their tactics today. I was born February 3, 1904 in Adairsville, GA. I stole many things as a child. When I was younger, I stole from people, only small things. I would steal chocolate or coins, all things people really wouldn’t notice. As I grew into my teen years I would rob convenience stores. Eventually I did get arrested. I was always on the run from people and I even was wanted at one point. Soon enough, I had robbed the first of many banks, earning me the nickname of Pretty Boy Floyd. I robbed several banks, too many to count, after turning to a life of crime to escape the depression era in the 1920’s.

The influence a hero can have on people is immense because he can inspire and guide them to attain specific goals. In A Lesson Before Dying by Ernest J. Gaines, Grant is Jefferson’s hero and mentor, helping him with a variety of problems in the precious time he has left. As a result of Jefferson’s false conviction and death sentence, he becomes very depressed and does not see any point in trying to become a “true man”. Being called a “hog”, by his lawyer during his trial in the courtroom, also causes him to lose the little dignity and pride he had left further depressing him. In addition, he refuses to learn from Grant and finds any way to make others feel guilty for what was happening to him. This hostility also became directed towards his
The middle name that appears on my birth certificate is Cristina and I’m quite fond of my middle name because to me the name sounds utterly cheerful and friendly. Maria and Cristina complement each other. Many people when I tell them how my middle name is spelled they tend to believe my mom made a mistake and spelled my name incorrectly. The truth is she meant to spell it like that not because she decided to be slightly unique and spell my name without the letter h but because she decided to commemorate someone or something.
My first name, surname, and, for lack of a better term, family name are all uncommon, at least in the United States.
From a young age, Tommy Gordon was different than the other boys his age. In a way that set him apart from the others, even those 5 years older than him. When Tommy tried various sports, he was far and away the best one than the others. That fact was proven to be very true on a bleak winter evening in December. 16 year old Tommy laced up his hockey skates, and stepped out onto his frozen pond just like many times previously. He grabbed a puck, and *thwacked* it into the net. Well, let’s just say “into” is an understatement, because the puck went through the net, and kept on going. The puck traveled through his neighbor’s window, through the walls, and all the way through the city of Thunder Bay, Ontario. The puck finally rolled to a stop at

I ignore the fact that he didn’t call me Gabe. Even though his parents calling him Liz upsets him, he didn’t give up hope. He stayed persistent, and strong. At some points he let himself be vulnerable to them, but overcame that with determination to be known by his parents as Gabe. Some people didn't understand that he was Gabe, either because it didn't make sense or they didn't accept the fact that he was transgender, but Gabe put himself out there, and let people know how he wanted to known even though it was a big risk and it felt

Is it important to know what is behind your name? Now in days, many names are given without knowing their meanings or where they come from. For example, I was given the name of Judith just because my parents heard it and liked it. It depends where and in which culture were they raised. For this purpose I researched my name Judith. Some of the main points I found were interesting to me like the history and my personality.
To begin understanding my origins, I researched the meaning of my name. My name, Alyssa, was intricately chosen for me based off the verse Psalm 51:6 which
