Shanene

Ugly and it doesn't even mean anything!

Really tacky and ugly.

It's okay, but I'd rather choose the similarly sounding name Janine because it's easier to spell and remember.

Tacky and trashy, shall I say more?

It is just a random name that sounds funny. Stop stereotyping it to an African American name.

This is my name, and I'm not a low-class person or trashy at all. I feel that people only dislike these kinds of names because they're associated with black people. As an African-American myself, that upsets me.

My friend's name is Sanin (with a diacritic sign above "S") and it is pronounced SHA- NEEN. I do not think that anybody relates this name with a certain social class- not in my country at least. However, many people that I know find it interesting.

It sounds quite tacky and borderline trashy. No one would really expect someone named Shanene to come from a very wealthy family. Now, I was born to poor parents myself, and things have changed a lot since, so I'd hate to sound classist, but the idea is that if the name sounds low-class, the person appears uneducated, stupid, and is assumed to be one of those annoying, loud-mouthed people that used to beat up or verbally abuse more successful girls in school, and who ended up having a crappy job and a boyfriend who beats her up when drunk, which is often, and who does the ''nasty'' sort of drugs. That's life.

Whatever! LOL I still think it's a pretty name.
