"Trey" is unforgivable on a birth certificate, but is permissible as a nickname, only if the child is a "three-sticker"=child given the same name as his father AND grandfather...

The last few Treys I've seen have been black kids, and it's been short for Deontrey, Shontray, or similar names.

Oh BTW, after 180 white pioneers were slaughtered in the Alamo, a whole generation of white boys in the South and West were called after those heroes, such as Austin, Crockett, and above all Travis!

I notice that these names have come back in, and not only in Texas.
