I understand what you're saying. I even think that rebellion to white naming culture started even before the civil rights era (but maybe that just my impression?) But what you're saying is that people can't also just have a gut reaction about the sounds of a name. I feel like this response is also saying that I can't LIKE a name from another culture, because I don't know enough about it. I like A LOT of names from other cultures without knowing how they work in there respective origins, so I feel like I should be able to dislike them also. And let me reiterate this is solely on sound, as I would have no other cultural references.
