I'm watching Maury "10 year update" and man people name their children the weirdest ass name. Especially the black girls. Rashaniqua, Shaquintiah, Frelayshataqua, La Shawnte', Zashanetta. I mean what the fuck?  It's almost as in if they are just throwing the crib midgets in a clearance basket. Till this day I still don't get. Where the hell did those ridiculous names come from?!?!

Well they know the children will grow up to be nothing, so they had to give them names that will make them stand out somehow. I mean, cmon. If the kid is going to grow up bad and have nobody like her, then at least giving her a long ass retarded name will give people a way to remember her somehow.

It's hard but if you're used to hearing dumb ass blk names your whole life you learn how to pronounce them.

When slaves were brought over, their masters needed a way of distinguishing them from one another. Thus, freakishly individual names.

At least, that's how one of my baby naming books explains it. Seems kinda crazy that it still goes on.
