Looking through a friend's highschool yearbook and seeing the names "Stevetavious" and "Ladiamond bracelete"
 
I worked on my college’s newspaper when I was there. As part of an opinion poll we were doing, I got a quote from a negress in the cafeteria. I didn’t believe the name she gave me until she pulled out her student ID and showed me. Her name was “La4cha”. Yes, with the number 4.

According to black people I've spoken to, they name their kids this way so that they can be unique, which leads to 10,000,000 black women literally named "Unique" :story:
 
My brother knew a girl named Arthamedial. I don't know if I'm spelling that right. I'm just guessing. I have no idea if that's a real name or if her parents thought it sounded like something from mythology or antiquity.

Malik is a real name though. It's not made up. It's used in Middle Eastern and SEA countries. But in the US I think it's mostly a black name. So in a way it's kind of like Jerome, Jermaine and Tyrone.
 
These names sound like what someone who knows nothing about class would think are classy: African Americans managed to McMansion child-naming. Just another affectation of culture, but without the restraint to make it even initially plausible.

Really sad to see a group so thoroughly destroyed, I see some poor white demographics taking a similar trajectory IMO.
