Hello, I am a spotted begonia. I look like a dragon. But I don’t have a name yet. Please can you think of one for me?
Names are special.
And because names are special, is very important to say someone’s name correctly. This is because your name is about you, your parents, your culture and your history. You show someone respect when you take the time to learn how to say their names. If you are not sure, ask. “Please can you teach me how to say your name?”
