Re: favorite "African-American" names
I haven't bothered to look at the list but I have always thought that Ebony was one of the most elegant names out there. I understand that in UK and Australia Ebony is common on white girls, but that is very definitely not the case here in the US; it started being used in the seventies and eighties as a symbol of black pride and for that reason I imagine a white Ebony would be looked at pretty oddly, especially by blacks.
Ebony is now out of fashion but I think it would fit right in with Jade, Ruby, Diamond, etc.
