I will get charged with racism if any politically correct types are around, but, years ago, black people had the same “normal” names that everyone else did. Now many, not all, but many young black people have names that didn’t even exist many years ago.
How do you like “Latrina”?
In some tribes thoughout the world a child’s name is created by combining names of their ancestors....First part of one name with part of another...Many families although they have been “civilized” continue the practice. Just as we might name a child after great aunt Elizabeth or Nathan.
Remember that Johnson was once John’s son...and Leonardo da VInci. Simply meant Leonard from the town on Vinci....
A Baker was a baker. A Miller was a miller.
If you look at the Palin family they have continued Todd’s family tradition by naming their children after things that were important to them at the time of birth.
My theory is their mama’s must eat a lot of alphabet soup and whatever letters are scooped up in the spoon is what the kid is named.
