Anger for what? I'm not even quite sure what your point is yet. You seem to having this racial crusade of some kind and you want to fight me about it.
Did a black person steal your bike or something?
If anyone on this board is on a crusade it's you.

ya Araby, I met these twin girls when I was little whose names were Gypsy and Moon
I fail to see how that's any better than Lakisha.

Obviously you know this, but NZ has one of the largest percentage of native people in the world. Maori is actual the second official language of the country.

Awesome, is that why you're trying to teach me about black people?

Only because you bleed all over this board like you're some sort of fucking saint when we all know better.

Backpedal what? Have you made a point about anything yet? I'd love to argue with you if that's what you want but you haven't really said much of anything yet.

How else are you going to get new names? I'll bet many of the common given names now were ridiculed when they first appeared.

No joke. I know a guy who's sister (they're both niggers of course) wanted to name her kids Popeye and Church.

I knew a chick who named her sons Elric and Elven.... Man, I felt sorry for those kids.
And if anyone needs proof of whether white guys can name their kids weird names, just look at Frank Zappa's kids. Dweezil? Moon Unit?

Pilot Inspektor, Apple, Rumor, Scout, Moxie Crimefighter. Stupid people exist in all races and they generally do stupid things like give their kids names that the rest of us laugh at. It isn't specific to any race.

well
black folks have some of the more interesting names tho
there was a whole generation where it seemed like they just took common names, and tossed a "la" or "le"in front of them
LeRay
LeDana
etc etc

I think different communities have different socially acceptable things.
4Real or ESPN are just publicity stunts, and it'd be better if they didn't get the attention, so other parents wouldnt follow suit.

It's a ghetto thing not a "black" thing. I know that is a weird distinction for most of you but there it is. Just like for white people it's usually white trash that gives out crazy names. Hollywood is in a category all it's own.

If a person wants to name their child something that sounds ridiculous it doesn't really matter. If it's indicative of what kind of parent they will be then you couldn't change that just by not allowing them to name their child whatever they want. Stuff like this is meant to get attention, but to me the best thing to do is ignore it.

I'll buy that
but majority of the ghetto is black tho
it's like around here, the natives have a really interesting naming standard in the last 15-20 years
they give a VERY christian first name to go with their traditional native surnames
so you run into a lot of Donald Stonebears, Christian Twofeather, Sarah Poundmaker etc etc etc

Yes Tikker :p i'm not saying that most of the ghetto isn't black, i'm just saying that it's specifically ghetto black people that come up with these crazy names rather than just black people in general. I'm sure some clever poster will quip that most black people live in the ghetto though.

Isn't "ghetto" the term that people apply to places with predominately black populations? =P
