It was story about girl in the holocaust that had blue eyes and blonde hair that got sent to a school for Jewish people while her family got sent to camps?? She had a pin that she kept from her grandmother and it helped her remember her real name, and not the one she got assigned. I remember it being called "A girl named ___" or "My name is ___" but I could be wrong?

That sounds like "Someone Named Eva" by Joan M. Wolf. She had a garnet pin shaped like a star.
