Prose

My name from its Hebrew Origin is Mattityahu and is Matthaios in Greek. When you translate those to English you get my name Matthew. My name means "gift of god" it is ranked 15th in top names for boys in the U.S. in 2013. Nicknames I have are Matt,Matt the Cat,and Matty. I personally like my name even though I have met other people with the same name. Some famous celebrities  with the name Matthew are Matt LeBlanc (Actor), Matt Sohinki (Youtuber), and many others. I am proud of my name it defines me and my personality. I am silent and can tend to my self just like a cat, so my nickname Matt the Cat fits me pretty well. My name has been used since the Middle Ages as a English name. That is what my name means and means to me.

  18. Another celebrity with the same name is Matt Smith. I quite like the Greek version of your name. It's cool that you're okay with having a "popular" name, as most aren't. Interesting that you compared yourself to a cat (it's also a nice rhyme).
