Directions
Ask each person to introduce themselves by name and to explain what their name means and where it came from.
You can also ask them to tell if they like their name or not as a child & if they like it now (this gets some interesting stories & helps eveyone remember each others names).
Debrief
Alternatives
Ask everyone to share their favorite nickname or pet name. Who calls them this name? When and why? Where did it come from?
