Mr Pip

My father’s name being Pirrip, and my Christian name Philip, my infant tongue could make of both names nothing longer or more explicit than Pip. So, I called myself Pip, and came to be called Pip” (Dickens).

“Everyone called him Pop Eye. Even in those days, when I was a skinny thirteen-year-old, I thought he knew about his nickname but didn’t care” (Jones 1).

How much do our names, whether they be the names given to us by our parents or nicknames we acquire from friends, reflect who we are? The above two quotes, from Great Expectations and Mister Pip, respectively, are the first lines of each novel. Both novels concern themselves with the theme of names and naming, and, subsequently, identity.

In a five-paragraph, expository essay choose three characters from Mister Pipand discuss how his/her name/s reflect his/her personality. Remember, some characters have multiple names. If so, this must be part of your discussion.
