Devan
My full name is Devan Luis Santiago. My name does not have any special background, I was named after a person who was nice to my aunt. My aunt happened to like his name, "Devan", so now and forever, I am known by his name, Devan. I personally do not think there is anything special with my name. When I was young, I wished that I had a different name that related to my Puerto Rican heritage, but now that I think about it, I know that there are things about my name that make me who I am.I am a guy who cares for the feelings of others. I hate it whenever I have to hear the sound of small, sad kids crying, but I can not do anything about it, or anybody for that matter. My name is not much, but it is me, my identity. Without my name, I am nothing, nonexistent.
As I have said before, I was named after some guy that I do not even know, but this guy, Devan, was nice to my aunt. I like to think that he is like that with other people, nice, caring, kind of like how I see myself.
I hear fantastic names almost everyday. Names like Lysander, Taino, Clayton, all of these names are unique, but they are what make those people unique. "Devan" is what makes ME unique.
This is unique, different, I like it.
