The story of my English name--How I got it?

Tweet

When at college, my foreign teacher asked me to choose an English name. At that time, the first name came into my mind was Nathan. Because we learned a text about Nathan Hill. I know he was a hero,and his words--"I only regret that I have but one life to lose for my country" --is widely known. So I decided to name myself Nathan. When I graduated from college, I started to work as a teacher of English. It calls for great patience and you've got to handle your feelings well. Even when you feel under the wheather or frustrated, you've got to smile at students. In order to remind myself of that, I decided to change my English name into Smiles. But I know many people use that as their surname, so I started considering giving myself a first name, too. Then I remember a proverb "Where there is a will, there is a way". Thus a full name came into being--Will Smiles. I like very much. When I think of my name, I always think that I should live up to it. Always keep a strong will and smiling face.
