| I hate that these threads always turn into light making fun of lower socio-economic status AA names. As if we're not familiar with the concept of this already...do we really need to ridicule people just to get a laugh at how black and (likely) poor they are? Come on. |

Not personally, but there was once a lady in the newspaper who was named:
Phoebe P. Peabody Bebe. Say that out-loud, fast. |

I first heard the name Arden when I was introduced to an adult Arden. I thought it was so weird at first but now it's growing on me and I really like it!
I think that's how it works for all names. Unfamiliar names seem odd but, once you know someone, the name becomes as common to you as John or Jane. |
