this essay is about my name and it's origin/background, why my parents named my, etc. thank you
My Name and Me
I am a person who doesn't know too much about her name like, the meanings and origins. My birth and full name to this day is Stefanie Marie Fluke.
When my mother was pregnant with me, my parents didn't know what sex I was. So my parents had to come up with both a male name and a female name as well. When figuring out what to name me, my parents were looking through a name book. If I was a boy my parents were going to name my Christian Lloyd Fluke. Christian means 'follower of Christ' in Latin and Lloyd means 'grey' in Welsh. If I was a girl, and course I am, I was going to be named Stefanie Marie Fluke. Stefanie means 'crown' in Greek and Marie means 'wished for child' in Hebrew. And of course my last would stay the same whether I was a boy or girl. Fluke comes from the South German word flück which is a nickname for 'a bright and lively person' or the Middle High German word vlücke which means 'fully fledged.'
When my parents named me for my middle name it only made sense to name me Marie because my dad's sister's, my mom's sister's, and my great grandmother on my mom's side has the name Marie.
I really do not mind my full name I just wished that people would spell my name correctly. Yes, it is more common to have the spelling be 'Stephanie,' but my name is spelt 'Stefanie.' Also I dislike when people call me Step-on-me, Steffy, Fluker, or Gwen Stefani. Those are not my name so do not call me that. But I do not mind if you call me Fluke, Stef, Fluke-inator, or Fluke-ster. I have asked my friends many times why they call me Fluke most of the time instead of calling me Stefanie which is my name, and one of my friends said, "because it is a cool my to say, also is kind of fun and funny to say...FLUKE!" I giggled at this and kept doing what I was doing.

Awesome, funny essay. :) For the conclusion, you usually repeat the points made in the intro in order to give the essay closure. You could add a conclusion by reflecting on the main theme of the essay. Refer back to something you wrote at the beginning. In your case, you might want to add something to the beginning and the end: Add one sentence to the beginning and end of the essay, and have them both express the same truth about your relationship to your name.
I can't wait to see what you come up with!
