Is there any trashier name than Draven? - The Crow isn't even that great a movie

[Uncle Phil]

Fat stoner single moms have been naming their sons "Draven" for decades now, the shit just won't go away. Does there exist any other name more exclusively bestowed by the most awful, uneducated people?

Courtney.

This. Literally every single Courtney I’ve known has been a walking hillbilly stereotype.

Low hanging fruit I know, but all the Brayden/Kayden/Ayden kids out there have trashy names given by trashy parents.

I never heard of that name. Sounds like a villain's name in a video game.

"Dreadlord Draven and his demon knights of Chaos"

It sounds somewhat cool in that context, but it would be a gay name irl.

Courtney's not even a hillbilly name. It's a pretty regular girl name. Hillbilly names for girls are those double names you sometimes see. Ex. Peggy Sue, Mary Kate, and so on.

Grew up in poor side of town. Went to school with a Draven or two. Some honorable mentions:

- Krystal
- Kaitlynn
- Lucas
- Skye
- Rayne
- Trystan
- Bella
- Hunter
- Dominique
- Taylor

Those are some of the ultra modern names from about 20 years ago, back when parents had a phobia about giving their children the normal, classic names like Jim, John, Frank, Mary, Ashley, Stephanie, Chris, Josh, Jessica, etc.

They wanted their kids to be extra "special" starting with their weirdo, postmodern monikers. I don't like em.

Also fuck every parent giving their kid an odd showoff spelling like Khrystal. You're dooming your kid to a lifetime of having their name misspelled and having to explain it a million times.

Here's one for you. You know those wannabe country/southern suburban moms that name their kids all sorts of goofy shit? Brant, Trenton, Brycen, etc.

Have you EVER met one of those kids over the age of like, 8?

Despite meeting plenty of these in my teens, I have yet to actually find one that grows up. It's like they all die early, or get caught in some Perpetual child time loop

I thought draven was a made up name from league of legends

LOL oh no, the main character in the Crow's name is Eric Draven. Lots of little goth-lets in the 90s and early 2000s glommed onto the name.

Someone I know is pregnant and was considering naming the baby "Saylor" if she was having a girl. Thankfully she's having a boy and all the names she's considering are much more sensible.

Not to mention just about any stereotypical ghetto black name you can think of - Shaniqua, Daquan, Tamika. There are some names more popular with black Americans that are still traditional and have a long history of usage - Dante, Marcus, Jamila - and those are fine, but it's the bastardised versions that just scream "walking stereotype". That isn't to say there aren't trashy white names either but there are BLM activist types who'll defend the trashy black names as "muh culture". Which makes no sense to me, as a non American - they're in a western culture, speaking English, so why are typical English names "too white"? I guess it's just another weird thing with Americans, dividing themselves along racial lines.

All the dumb nigger names began in the 70s and the 80s, you know, when times got easy for them . There were no more civil rights struggles and they were pretty well accepted even in the big cities by this point.

Naturally, this meant they needed a new "struggle" to fight for, because as we all know, racist black, community "leaders" need there to be a struggle or else they become completely irrelevant and that means they stop getting paid.

This is when they started inventing those fake names for themselves. It was all a big push to "reclaim their african-ness", since they had been using, like you said, English language and names for a long time now.

Despite none of those retarded names they used having anything to do with Africa, a very large place with 1000s of dialects, tribes, separate cultures, etc., remember that these type of people are very, very stupid. They thought if the names sounded sufficiently goofy, somehow that made them more "african".

And your comment about Americans dividing themselves along "racial" lines? No one does this besides a handful of dumb niggers. Probably 90% or more don't give a care, including most other black people.

It's a very specific set of "blacks" that do this. It's the nerdy, insecure blacks who are perpetually online.(think social media nonsense like twitter)

They probably grew up very normally, middle class, both parents in the picture, never really wanted for anything or struggled in life. Probably grew up with people just like themselves who had money and lived nice lives. Then I guess they take freshman sociology at their community College and think they're the next Malcom X, despite having zero in common with the black people from back in the day that did take a little crap.

I think it's like an identity crisis and a form of comfortable, middle class guilt these blacks have.

They learn about people from before they were born who had to struggle and they feel guilty that they have it so good. So they start to pretend that things are just as bad so they too have some struggle to fight for, only nobody is really buying it besides other idiots.
