While it may be a shame that people make these assumptions based on name alone, it's pretty easy to keep the assumptions in mind when you name your kid. Why make things harder for the kid by giving him or her a name likely to be problematic?

Because most people think they can name their children what every they want in the US. Moreover, the freedom to name one's offspring has occured for at least 50 years. Yet, should a child be ashamed for what his or her name because that is what his or her parents chose as a name?
Having a name is one of the first levels of critical thinking for oneself...
So are we suppose to become submissive and fit our names under what you describe essential for our names?
I use to know someone who did that, we use to call him overseer or "Massa".
