Blog Post 6 / Why is the great gatsby titled the great gatsby

I feel as though its ironic because the great Gatsby kind of cheated his way to be great . Although he was GREAT and wealthy his whole life wasn't that great and he didn't quite EARN it . The "old money " people kind of see right though his charade. But he is a good person and people tend to take advantage of his generosity. He truly was great and i think that is why i think the book was named it .
