MY NAME
The name GABRIELA is not a common name and this is more interesting where it comes. The name Gabriela comes from the hebrew origin. In Hebrew the meaning of the name is "God of able- bodied one". this is a femine of Gabriel . My name means "God is my might" . Most people would imagine a person with the name Gabriela to be funny, friendly, and feminine woman. But in one word you might describe Gabriela as feminine person. I think the name Gabriela should fall under the following style category : ladylike. The name gabriella (some countries write like it) is originates from italian language , and the common nicknames of gabriela or gabriella are Gaby, Gabi or Gab. in my opinion I like when people call me Gaby is short and sound cool .I like my name but it is large but don't care because mom put this name becuse sound sexy and sensual that"s dad told me . It is funny but i dont want complained why mom did it. I love my name very much
Hi Gabriela!
ReplyDeleteI had no idea you preferred "Gaby". I, too, like that name a lot! I think you should be very proud to have a name that means "able-bodied"-- it means you should be able to do anything!
It would be great if you separated your writing piece into paragraphs with different topics. For example, one paragraph might be the meaning of your name in different languages. Another paragraph might be the story of why your mom named you Gabriela and how you feel about it. Each paragraph should be about something different, just like in "My Name" and the "Cat" essays we read in class. Can you try it? It will help your readers to remember what you are writing.
Good luck!
