William Shakespeare once said, “What is in a name? That we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet.” Everyone is given a name at birth and it is usually their name for the rest of their life. A name is how people are identified. A name is someone’s label; so many opinions come up when you hear a name. I never knew anything about my name rather than it is Alec Hayden Plunkett. It is all I had ever known and I was curious about the meaning of my name, where my family comes from, and any…

although it is not a unique name, there is great meaning behind it. There was much debate between my parents about what my name would be, my dad ultimately lost the argument. My dad’s choice was Baden Scott Weber, which was the one I wish they would have chosen. The name Baden is of German descent and was my great grandpa’s middle name which is why my parents selected it. Although I did not get the name of my choice, I feel that I definitely live-up to my entire name: Joshua Baden Weber. By far…

in the Bible, but I never quite understood the meaning behind the name itself. I knew that my first name, Noah, was of Biblical origin, and that my middle name, Daniel, could have been too, but I had no idea where my last name, Swan, could have come from. From going to a Baptist church my whole life I knew the story of Noah and the ark, and knew some about Daniel in the Bible as well, but I was never told anything about my last name from my family, and I never researched it either. Going into…

Whether it had been another name such as Mohammad or Yusuf, I would…

It would be convenient if I could mesh together the Bible and the Koran. It would be convenient if I could say that the God of the Bible is the same God of the Koran. There would be a lot less tension on both sides for some. I simply cannot say that to be true. Through my research on both sides I am convinced that the God of the Bible is not the same God of the Koran.
