Home made names are a sure sign there are risk factors present!

Actually the history of "home made" names dates back to the South, where creative and unique names (mostly for girls) were once relatively common for white as well as black Southerners. One common tactic was to combine the parents' first names--eg Steve and Evelyn as Stevelyn. The recent Black fashion has been to incorporate an African sounding slant. But it is something they brought with them from the Old South. Don't see where it hurts anything.
