As my brother "leftist" said my baby moma's are calling me to name the illigitimate ones and I am thinking of their future bc I dont want them to b descriminated so im lookin for a name that swings both ways, name like Asley-Ashley, where when grandma wants to pronounce it we will tell her "ayeeyo waa Asli" but at school and jobs it shall b Ashley...

WTF did I just read

Waraa...one piece of advice....this shit is meaningless. I have the worlds most ethnic and Muslim sounding name and the most discrimination I have ever received was from Somalis and other Africans for where I'm from and what accent I have. No-one else gives a damn what name your child has as long as its pronounceable. When you think about it white people have weird names, so do Jews and Latinos (Chastity is a gross name, Stein is hella scary, Guadalupe is ridiculous). We'll all get used to each others names at some point.

Mohamed = Mo
Shamarke = Mark
Safiya = Sofia
Yonis = Jonas
Rageh = Roger
