Sorry for the late post! It will be fun to get know you both better for this course.
Nothing too special about my given name. It comes from a compromise between my parents. Marcus is one of the most common names in Sweden for males around my age group. For context, I am quickly approaching 30. Although my mother wanted to name me Martin at first, which was also a common first name at the time. However, my father associates that name with a person that he is not too found of. Therefore, Marcus became the middle ground. My last name is from my father’s side. It is somewhat common in Sweden, but it is uncommon enough that people frequently ask me if I know someone else with the surname Palm. Once I did.

Hello Guuled Hassan, thank you for sharing the background of your name and I'm looking forward to working with you for the rest of the semester. There was no real significance to my name other than it popping into my mother's head on the day of my birth. We only found out later that my name can translate into "God is my Judge' in quite a few languages as it is the derived from the male form of Daniel- who was a prophet in the Old Testament. My middle name Nicole has Greek origins and can mean "victorious person". My last name is just a common last name in Spanish: Lopez, or son of lope (wolf).

In this short little post I will be detailing some facts about my name, and thus explaining a bit about my background. My name is actually the result of my father complying to western naming customs when naming my siblings and myself. Our last name "Hassan" is actually the first name of my fathers grandfather, and therefore my fathers last name. You see, according to somali tradition children bear their grandfathers name as their last name, but since it was common for the same last names to be past down in europe my father chose to give us his last name.
