My friend just had a baby girl and named her Latisha.
 

He's chinese and his wife is from vietnam. :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh
Latisha Cho .... crazy motherfucker.

I almost named my kid Akira.. I'm canadian, wife is mexican..

I just like japanese names. Also it was the name of a BBS I was on as a youth, brings back a lot of good memories for me.

Then my buddy told my wife that Akira was a "serial killer"....

Fucker.

When she starts sending out resumes in 16 years, expect a huge disappointment.

i gotta say.. has a ring to it

uve bascially gauranteed that she will watch bet all day and marry 1...i mean 10 black men over the course of her life

That reminds me of a really sad situation I encountered back in college studying engineering. Apparently the girls were having more trouble getting interviews because of the perception that girls aren't good at science/engineering, and their resumes would get passed over because a female name was like a big X for the employer. Now it wasn't intentional or institutional or anything (because that would be illegal), but it was insidious and under the surface. I realized this because a girl who did get more interviews than the others, despite her regular resume, had some Iranian name that sounded like it could be a guy's.

Lesson to be learned: the world, especially the employment world, is dreadfully (albeit unconsciously) racist and sexist, not to mention superficial, so it's best to put a lot of thought into the name you give a kid.

it is like that in every field. People generally would prefer to hire a man unless it is a dead end secretarial position. If a woman walks in and seems like she has ambition and goals, she has no shot at getting hired either.

Sucks for that poor kid.

i see a lil biddy titty

let me say hi to the baby and welcome to this goddamn world :):):)

I had a GF who named her baby-girl Chiquita Rene. When Momma wasn't around, we refred to the kid as Nannahead.

As someone tagged with a nick from birth .. I do wish ppl would think before they name a kid, for life.
