Tequisha? Are you joking? Do people actually name their children that? Anyway, although I agree with him about the silliness of such names, I do not agree with him about avoiding being black. That problem is at the upper end, not the lower.

It reminds me of the time my husband was chatting to one of his pals about his short prognosis and told him that he wanted me to marry again when he passes. His pal said In all seriousness ' yeah but seriously mate, who'd have her'?

Do you have a family name. All our boys have James somewhere In their names. No Maud's yet but a Henry after my Mother.

Yes. All of my sons (I have 3. Really I do.) are named High Jr. the first, the second, and the third. If I ever have another he'll be called High Stakes the First.
