Ughhhhh. My fiancee's best friend's daughter is having her baby soon... We just found out that she's having a boy, and when we asked her what the name would be she gave us two choices:
While I recognize the ethnic/cultural origin of certain names, and thus might think a person would match a specific 'ethnic' name, I don't expect it as though it should be, and I don't think those of a different ethnicity/culture should be frowned upon, for using names that certain high minded people want to think should be reserved just for those of that specific ethnicity/culture. Because bottom line, we're all just people and names are just what we use to address each other by, they're not who we are, and who we are, is way more important, then what we're addressed as.
