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.

Any child given one of those screwy names should change even if you do it during or after college. Shaniqua can easily be changed to Susan or Susanna Or use your middle name if it normal
