Actually the most likely folks to come up with names people who don’t know any better THINK are made up, spelled wrong or odd are white people. Then we find out they’re Swedish, or French; my grandparents gave my mother the German (our heritage) spelling of a name that in America is usually seen with the French spelling so people often think it’s misspelled but it isn’t. Now the STEREOTYPE is that it’s black people, but it’s not actually true. So your “point” is false, you’re following a stereotype that’s not true.
