Never met anyone named Sen'Derrick.
A person given such a name might go by "Derrick," anyway.
For an increasingly diverse industrialized nation in this global economy, it is funny that "David Smith" still sounds better and creates images of competency and professionalism. When I call Microsoft's helpline I get connected to a support group overseas, I don't hear any David Smiths or talk to anyone who remotely SOUNDS LIKE a David Smith. I guess that's fine as long as the big time decisionmakers in the boardrooms are still David Smiths.
Sorry, T La Rock, LL killed it.
