Sometimes I have a big ego and think of myself as a gift from God. I mean my name is Matthew which does mean "gift from God". My name was passed down to me from my dad like a family heirloom. His parents named him after the Saint Matthew from the Bible.
My emotions about my name are mixed. One, my left side brain is not happy with the name Matthew because it is a very common name. When I think about it I know at least ten other Matthews. The right side of my brain believes that my name fits my personality. The name Matthew is commonly known or associated with a very athletic, nice, caring guy. Matthews are jokesters who love to have fun and are sometimes seen as over confident. I believe that Matthew is a perfect fit for my personality. This is how I feel about my name.
Okay. Good job! Matthew does fit your personality ~Ivy
