[Opinions] Re: Is it wrong to give your baby a tribal name if you're not from that tribe?
in reply to a message by Apozanolotl
As a mixed person, I think it's fine to name your kid any name, as long as it isn't offensive (i.e. a slur). Names originate from specific cultures, but they mean different things to every person. Besides, culture is meant to be shared, and gatekeeping names isn't the way to go about it.
Edit: I have since read OP's other messages, and they most definitely seem to be a troll. So I hope that if anyone who is genuinely wondering about whether or not you can name your child a name that originates from another culture, this helps them. :)
