[quote=Anonymous]If you are NE waspy then by all means, stay true to it! Use a family surname, etc. However, here are my thoughts on your list: Parker -generally a girl name these days. pretty main stream Blake -also fairly mainstream and sort of very -average-American-subdivision-suburbia. I think this one has lost it's WASPY quality. Tucker -like it if it's a family name. Has yet to be taken over by mainstream America. Slightly "trying too hard" to sound rich/waspy/etc. Slightly. Brooks -too waspy---to the point of being a caricature of waspiness. If there was a rich New Englander boarding school boy in a book, his name would be Brooks. Bode -Neutral on this one and all I can think of is the skier so it doesn't speak wasp to me but I wouldn't use it---(skier Bode is sort of a loser aside from his skiing). Penn --like it. It's waspy without being overly pretentious. It's not trying too hard. [/quote]
