Icebreaker Game –
1. My Name Means…
A good game for small groups who need to know a little bit more about each other.
Split the group into pairs. Each pair has to come up with words that describe the person using the letters in their first name. The phrase is then shared with the group.
As an example, Lyndsay could stand for “Loud, Young, Nerdy, Dreamer, Strong, Adventurous, Yearning”.
As a more creative alternative, each pair has to come up with a silly phrase based on the letters in their first name.
Lyndsay could be “Lively Young Nurses Dance Salsa All Year”

I would be Taz as I rush around like a crazy creature!
