The author Sandra Cisneros captures the idea of multicultural voices in his title by using the word "Mericans." The word is intended to be a combination of the word "Mexicans" and the word "Mericans." The title conveys the main theme of the story: how children of Mexican heritage raised in the United States have a blended voice, and an array of multicultural experiences that draws on the culture of both Mexico and the United States.
