[quote=Anonymous]My name actually is Karen, and I'm white and middle-aged. I have hated my name since I was a very little girl so for that reason alone I'd say don't name your kid that. In ten years the stigma of being "a Karen" will be over and mostly forgotten. But I wouldn't name a kid any name that doesn't lend itself to a nickname. Both my parents had names that could be shortened and both went by the shortened version but then somehow my mother (who was in charge of naming us) picked names that don't shorten at all for my brother and me.
