Antwan? Really? It really doesn’t help when parents give their kids made up names. Shaniqua, Shanaynay, Latrina, Johntavius. If I were these kids I’d act up to, knowing that no matter hard I try, employers won’t take me seriously because my mother didn’t give me a real name. Might as well wear clown get-up 24/7.

I knew a woman who was given one of those names. She chose to use the name Tonya, and was actually a successful PhD educated medical researcher. People who want to be successful can choose to use respectable names.

True... When I see a made up name on a resume, I reject it. I wouldn't care if the said person graduated top of the class at MIT, but one time, I got a resume from a made up name and I ask the guy if I could call him Mark, he said, "No, that's not my name. My name is unique."
Unique...but it won't help getting a job.

The best name that I’ve seen was a woman on Maury or Bill Cunningham’s show whose name was VaJohna. How could anyone name their daughter that?

What our stupid PC culture has done is create a group of millions of people— American blacks— whose behavior and beliefs are left unchecked, unchallenged, and uncorrected through the regular social mechanisms of mockery and scorn. It’s like a large-scale, massively destructive social experiment. The end result is someone named Q’Donkeyius walking around with his pants only pulled up to mid thigh.
