This next Summer Learning Journey activity was really creative, and I was excited to share the name I would possibly change my name to if I could and why. I got a bit creative with my DLO, and created the background as a sky because it correlates to my name. I would change my name to "Hevani" which is Tongan for Heaven. And this was almost my first name, until it became my middle. I really like my name because it's easy to pronounce but I also really appreciate the meaning behind Hevani.

Activity 2: What’s in a Name?
This next Summer Learning Journey activity was really creative, and I was excited to share the name I would possibly change my name to if I could and why. I got a bit creative with my DLO, and created the background as a sky because it correlates to my name. I would change my name to "Hevani" which is Tongan for Heaven.

Kia ora Victoria,
ReplyDeleteI liked the way you thought about this activity. It's interesting imagining a different name, right?! I think both Victoria and Hevani are beautiful names. The fact that Hevani is your middle name and it means so much to you is really lovely. My middle name is Hayley, but I'm not sure I'd suit it for a middle name.
When I think about changing my name I can't think of anything... mainly because I can't imagine getting used to a whole NEW name. Imagine someone calling out your name and you don't realise they are talking to you.
Do you think people should be able to change their name if they want to at any time? Or do you think we should keep our given names! Tough question, but curious to know what you think! :)

Hi Victoria!,
ReplyDeleteHevani is a beautiful and unique name. I like how you not only explained why you would choose your name, but also the pros and cons, and what it means. I think that Victoria is also a beautiful name. What does Victoria mean?
Keep Up The Awesome Work!
Kia Ora Victoria,
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed reading your blog post and observing your work that you have completed. I like how you added a description on why you chose this name and the Pros and Cons about it. Did you find anything hard about this activity?
Great blogging and Keep it up!
Hi Victoria,
ReplyDeleteI liked how you said that you'd change your name to Hevani because of your culture. I found it interesting that your name wasn't originally Hevani, why did your parents change their minds?
Hej Victoria,
ReplyDeleteHevani is an absolutely beautiful name! To be honest Victoria is a beautiful too. That's awesome how you'd want to be named 'Hevani' for sentimental purposes!
Is there any meaning behind the name Victoria?
Kind regards,
Riiana
