Would it be really weird to name a black child Lily, or a white child Ebony?

Very good point. I know a lot of black girls named Britney, Ashley, Lauren, etc and it's normal/acceptable. I've yet to meet a white girl named Latoya, Shaniece, or LaQuan. I think people would look down on that, and maybe there is some subconscious reasons for that.

I know a white girl named Tyeesha. She usually goes by Ty. It caught me by suprise for about 2 seconds, then it seemed normal.
