Odd names
DISCLAIMER: This is just my theory.
I honestly believe that somehow it got into some of our brains after 1970 or so that the so-called "ghetto" names were somehow related to African names like Nia or Imani.
How that happened, I don't know. But I was born in 1964, and I rarely saw names such as Qyntel, Dajuan, Jahtwasia or Shananashaqeesha until much later.
