The title "The Great Gatsby" likely refers to Jay Gatsby, the central character in the novel. Whether or not Gatsby is truly great is a matter of interpretation. Some may view him as great due to his ambition, charm, and extravagant lifestyle, while others may see him as flawed and ultimately tragic. Gatsby's pursuit of wealth and status at any cost, as well as his inability to truly connect with others, may suggest that he falls short of greatness in a more meaningful sense.
