[quote=Anonymous]I am too contemplating naming my daughter Salem. I like the historical meaning BEFORE the witch trials which actually has positive connotation. Historic spiritual writings highlights this name-promoting peace, solidarity and completeness. I certainly don't expect the ignorance of not "knowing" what the witch trials were or that there's a cancer stick/cigarette brand by that name to go unnoticed. Lets teach our kids to have a mind and personality of their own which should add to hopefully positive associations or possibility of a not negative "Salem" word. Charles Manson, Jim Jones, The cult phenomena movie Carrie certainly hasn't stopped people from naming their children these names. Because these names are so popular and robotically created we don't look twice or associate little kids with mass suicidal promoter murders, serial killers, or demon possessed kids/people do we? Come on...[/quote]
