Why do people name their kids LaMonica, LaTrisha ??
 

Do they want to sound French or something? i just don't get it.

b/c they are ignorant and what their children to have no future

Exactly, I remember reading in Freakonomics how black parents are dooming their children to reduced employment opportunities by giving them too black of a name. The quickest way to get your resume chucked in the trash is to have the name LaRon on it instead of just Ron...

to make them stay away from "the rest" for the rest of their lives

Laqisha, Lafanda and Shanaynay

Segregation is racist! Right on parents! Way to doom your child to a life of pain and suffering!

It's probably people like this that name their kids that way.

I met a girl named Clinique once.

So you're saying that if they use a "non-black" name on their resume then the employer will not know they are black during a face to face interview.

OK.

it would be easier to get past the phone interview, as long as they don't speak ebonics, and it might get their entire resume read.

rofl!!! Tony...you always make me laugh!!

they're trying to be "original" don't you get it?? lmao

True story:

I went to high school with a girl named 'Femolly' because her mother was simply so ignorant (no other word for it) that when she was brought the child, she had, I guess, thought the hospital had named her child for her.... and so when asked when her child's name was, she read the baby bracelet, 'Female.' (Fee - Molly)

Why do you think black people want to waste time interviewing with someone who has issues with blacks? Wouldn't that be volunteering for a dead end career even if they manage to get hired.

If someone has a problem with the name then I'm sure they have an incurable problem with the people.

I've got some really nice beach front property in Nebraska I'd give you a good price on.

Really? Shit head?

wtf :helpme

Now I know why you believe every conspiracy theory, because you completely lack common sense. If a white HR administrator sees the name LaRon on a resume he might equate it with an uneducated ghetto thug, instead of an educated black man. I'm not saying it's right, but it's the way the world works. Not everyone discriminates solely on skin color...

No sense in getting stupid. As I said, it's the truth - take it or leave it.

no you silly fucking twit... he's saying, like any other human being, you use a professional sounding name on your resume LIKE anyone that is looking for a job does. ... and if you don't do that YOU WON'T and shouldn't have an interview.

it used to be basic common sense stuff... but this society is getting sooo fucking dumbed down from continually catering to the lowest common denominator to make things fair, make sure its not going to be offensive or possibly considered racist or hurt someones feelings.

christ, sometimes i think the terrorists have a point.

That was also a name listed in Freakonomics, and it is a documented name a black parent gave to his/her kid...

If they conform and use a professional sounding name though doesn't that mean the terrorists win? :winkwink:

Why did you substitute the word "professional" when you meant "caucasian"?

Being named after an internal ass organ surely held "Collin Powell" back.:1orglaugh

Not to mention all the guys named after my genitalia..."Dick".

You're telling black people to change their names to fix the problem that you have. It's not really their problem, it's just your ignorance.

you want to talk about ignorance, only in black culture do they look down on other people who want to be educated as acting "white" and celebrate being ignorant.

They do it because Lexus is just too popular these days... ;)

They name them after the Monkeys at the zoo!

I don't need to talk about ignorance when I can simply quote you.

oh no he di - int

White people who name their kids Apple, Mercedes, Suri, Rumer, Moon Unit, Dweedle and crap like that aren't doing their kids any favors either.

Yeah look what got Paris Hilton.. fuckin nowhere:Oh crap

I have to disagree with you about "Moon Unit". :1orglaugh

LOL, if she didn't have family money to start with, she'd be just another fucking chick with a stupid name.

Here is the real reason why.....

French names are cool for girls

you got me good!!!

truth hurts, go ask chris rock, or he is racist too?

If you rely on comedians to get qualified social commentary then you truly are a fool. :2 cents:

I rely on books and other sources which you seem to ignore. But if he draws attention to a problem, does that make the problem any less valid?

You are the fool, either that or just feel like trolling. I'm right and others know it, and I could care less what you think.

qualified ???
 

comedians are an excellent source for social commentary:thumbsup

As someone who has gone through life with an unususual name I can certainly say this thread is unbelievably bigoted. Plenty of people thought I was black from my name too but it is gaelic and about as white as it can get. Regardless the name has opened more doors than it has closed.

As one who employs people without regard for race, creed, or unusual names but solely on the basis of merit I feel qualified to say that most employers I know look for people who are capable of doing the job over what their parents named them.

Did anyone here read "Grapes of Wrath" by Steinbeck? In there, a character name "Rose of Sharon" contracts eventually to "Rosasharn". My family name was once "Timberlake" but contracted down to "Timlake". The point is that names like you are making fun of are not necessarily "black", and morphing and deviations in names are normal cultural processes.

So all you rascist morons can just as well kiss my sister's black cat's ass.

(Farrell means "heroic" in gaelic btw so look for me to defend this point until I pass my last fighting breath)

what name did you mother blessed you with? DeShaun?

Does your sister fuck NlGGERS ?

Agreed... all you're doing is setting up the kid to be stereotyped. It's not a perfect world and the parents should be doing everything they can to make their kids lives easier :2 cents:

You just proved that you are unemployable.:321GFY

No, but she sure is loving telling all her girlfriends about when she boned your ass with a big black dong.

E’Traveon why didnt I think of this one ?:Oh crap

and can I say fitty Lemonjello & Orangejello's
