Re: Princess?

OK, maybe I'm just missing something, but I don't see how the name Princess is racist.
I dislike the name, it sounds cutesy and precious and I don't think I would be able to take an adult Princess seriously. It is also so in your face "look how darling my daughter is", I mean I don't mind Sarah or another name meaning princess because mainly they are more subtle and have a bucket load more of history. Plus, Princess comes with the stereotype of someone who is incredibly pretty, but has done nothing more with their life, or something along those lines.
But then again, I'd rather be Princess than Dustbin Lid :)
