Question

In “My Name," what is Esperanza's attitude toward her name?

Answer 1

I think it’s “She wants to change it to a new name because Esperanza said that although she likes how her name means hope in Spanish, she doesn't really like her name and she would gladly change it but she isn’t Abe to do nothing she can do about it, as she says "But I am always Esperanza," (Cisneros 11).
