Lol...Ohh Nooo. My two nieces are named Destiny and Desire. Let's see, Destiny, the oldest, poses for pictures lik a lil model and Desire just can't seem to keep her clothes on. Get this, Desire (age 2) while stipping, stands in front of a friend of mine (age 17) and proceeds to shake her rump and remove the rest of her jacket...Thank goodness that's as far as she got.

Destiny (age 4) thinks she is the supermodel...I see magazines in her future. Bet, the other day I told the lil ones to have a dance contest. Little Miss Destiny is spinning on the floor, throughing her legs up...I think she was break dancing. Anyways, she starts doing the only stipper poses on the floor. I was like...hm mm hm. Oh. No.

EVERYBODY NAMED MERCEDES, WAS NOT NAMED AFTER THE CAR!

Mercedes is a name in the Spanish language. Often times, ladies who are named Mercedes get the nickname of Mecha in the Spanish speaking community.

ALSO!!!! THE CAR WAS NAMED AFTER THE DAUGHTER!

This is taken from the Official Website of Mercedes-Benz
http://www.mercedes-benz.com/com/e/h...age/index.html


Mercedes – a Spanish girls’ name meaning ‘grace’ – was the name of the daughter born in 1889 to the Austrian businessman, Emil Jellinek, who had homes in Baden near Vienna and Nice.

A progressive thinker with an interest in sport, Jellinek turned his enthusiasm to the dawning age of the automobile, an invention he knew would be of key importance for the future. As early as 1897, he made the journey to Cannstatt to visit the Daimler factory and ordered his first Daimler car - a 6 hp belt-driven vehicle with two-cylinder engine.

But the car, delivered in October 1897 and with a top speed of 24 km/h, was soon too slow for Jellinek. He demanded 40 km/h and ordered two more vehicles. Supplied in September 1898, the two Daimler “Phoenix” cars, with their front–mounted 8 hp engines, were the world’s first road vehicles with four-cylinder engines.

Emil Jellinek had good contacts with the worlds of international finance and the aristocracy and became increasingly active as a businessman. In 1898, he began to promote and sell Daimler automobiles - in particular, within the higher echelons of society. In 1899, DMG supplied Jellinek with 10 vehicles; in 1900, he received as many as 29.

Jellinek demanded ever faster and more powerful vehicles from DMG. From 1899, he also entered these in race meetings – first and foremost of which was the Nice week – where he would race under his pseudonym, ‘Mercédès’, the name of his daughter aged ten at the time. Initially, he used the name not as an automotive brand name but merely as a team and driver designation.

At the beginning of April 1900, Jellinek made an agreement with DMG concerning sales of Daimler cars and engines. The decision was taken to develop a new engine “bearing the name Daimler-Mercedes”, thereby introducing Jellinek's pseudonym as a product designation. Two weeks later, Jellinek ordered 36 of the vehicles at a total price of 550,000 marks – a sizeable order even at today’s equivalent value of DM 5.5 million. A few weeks later, he placed an order for another 36 vehicles, all with 8 hp engines.


Whew! One day we will all see the light! LOL......oh by the way if you haven't guessed, my name is Mercedes...LOL

That's nothing. I saw an ep of "The Man Show" a few years ago that had as guests men with sexually suggestive names. Among which were:

Charles Cock (he actually has a sister named Anita)
Jack Hoff (his middle initial was L; what if his middle initial was N?)
Andy Dick--the famous comedian
Dick Hertz

Can't remember the rest, but it was hilarious.

Historical Perspective to African American names
 

Our unique names date back to slavery when enslaved Africans were hesitant to christen their children with the names of the oppressors. The only thing we had control of was our name. Thus this tradition began. I think if no one else embraces names like, Shameka and Keshia, we should at least. It is a part of African American culture. Shouldn't we be just as proud of African American culture as we are of African culture?




*Note* Still, I cannot defend all of the names on this list. Naming your child after an alcoholic beverage is out of control!
