Help[Opinions] Re: 17 French Baby Names That Are Prime For An American Takeover
in reply to a message by Joiya
I enjoy diversity too; and I still hope that more grow to accept non-traditional "white-names" than those who have already embraced them.
I would tend to think that, if a standard were set to ratio, though many may or may not concur on a fixed calibration, the numbers would reflect lesser favor toward non-traditional "white" names, yet while I hope more would accept "non-traditional standard white names than previously, I still fear we still have many leagues to travel before we arrive at full acceptance.
However - I hope that you are correct and that my thoughts are inaccurate. However, am a guy with a name attributed to females; yet I find this to be a blessing.

I think if we consider the differences in opinion between those who are past the age of having children, versus those who are currently choosing names for babies... we find a disparity.
Those who have chosen names already and are aging I see a consistent reaction in favor of traditional names and against the foreign, krea8tive, and alternative.
Those naming kids right now, seem (to me) to be up for almost anything!

That is wonderful! I find little difference when I mention my name while in formal situations; however, this would often be among an aging generation--though not by any means, exclusively, as a few younger folks would often be present. I will admit that folks in their twenties have little or at least lesser difficulty with the unique assignment of my name, so this part has grown easier; although some folks of any generation absolutely love it.
