[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I loved Emanuel, even for a middle name, but DH (Hispanic) nixed it as a name for Dominican thugs. Still like it though![/quote] For some reason it reminds me of a Hispanic name as well.[/quote] Funny: every Emmanuel (or Manny) I have known has been Jewish or black. I like the name![/quote] Emmanuel/Emanuel is popular among the particularly religious within the Hispanic community, meaning, if you're Hispanic, and name your kid that, other Hispanics will probably assume you're very religious--and many Hispanic parents choose the two m's rather than the Spanish spelling. As I said, I liked it (and Manny as well), but I think DH was too blinded by Manny Ramirez (whose first name is Manuel...) [/quote] My Dominican husband named his son Emanuel. He's not a thug, but they are somewhat religious.[/quote]
