Activity 2: What’s in a Name? [4 points]
Muhammad Ali was one of the greatest boxers of all time. He started boxing when he was 12 years old and went on to become the World Heavyweight Champion numerous times in the 1960s and 1970s.
Muhammad Ali was an African American man born with the name Cassius Marcellus Clay Jr. When he was a young man, however, he became a Muslim and converted to Islam. When he converted, he changed his name to Muhammad Ali. During his life, Ali gave a lot of time and money to various charities. He also helped to feed more than 22 million people across the world who didn’t have enough food. Despite all of his charitable work, Muhammad Ali is still best known for his agressive boxing style, his confident personality and his inspirational quotes.
Changing your name is a big deal! If you were to change your name, what would you change it to?
For this activity, imagine that you were allowed to change your name to anything that you wanted.
On your blog, tell us what you would change your name to and why you would choose that name.
There are two names that I have chosen.
1. Virat
2. Messi
Virat is a good name because it is from an Indian cricketer, who is currently the captain of the Indian Cricket Team. He is one of the best batsmen in the current generation.
Next is Messi, Messi is the last name but I would choose Messi. He is one of the best footballers. He plays for FC Barcelona and Argentina national football team.
