Pop Culture in America and Naming Customs around the world.

课程介绍

Lesson 1
This section focuses on how people get their names and the stories behind them. It encourages students to think about the meaning or reason for their own names.

Key Points

  • Many people are named after family members, such as grandparents or parents.

  • Some parents choose names because they like the sound or because the name is popular at the time.

  • Other names come from religion, culture, or famous people.

  • Sometimes names have special meanings, such as qualities parents hope their child will have.

Speaking Activity

Students usually:

  • Discuss why they were given their name.

  • Discuss whether they like their name or would prefer a different one.

Example questions:

  • Why did your parents choose your name?

  • Does your name have a meaning?

  • Would you change your name if you could? If so, why? 

Expansion: Who are the authors, actors, actressess and musicians?
Why are they an important part of American culture?
How do their names effect them in Career and lifestyle? 
Can you name anyone else in the world who has a contributed to the culture of their country? 

The goal is to practice conversation and sharing personal stories.

1. Spain and Latin American countries

  • People usually have two surnames.

  • One surname comes from the father, and the other from the mother.

2. Iceland

  • Last names are often based on the father’s first name plus -son or -dóttir.

  • Example: if the father is Jon, the child might be Jonsson (son of Jon) or Jonsdóttir (daughter of Jon).

3. China

  • The family name comes first, followed by the given name.

  • Example order: family name + personal name.

4. Some African cultures

  • Names may describe circumstances of birth, such as the day of the week a baby was born.
