What's in a name?

There's an article on the BBC News site: Why don't black Americans swim?

Quite a sad article which mentions an incident where six kids drowned because they didn't know how to swim.


I know this will sound insensitive, but one thing that really struck me was the names of some of these kids: DeKendrix, JaTavious, Takeitha, JaMarcus, Litrelle, LaDarius.

Where do parents come up with these names? Talk about disadvantaging your kids from birth.

I think the admin of this web site is in fact working hard in support of his
web page, for the reason that here every data is quality based data.
