The porn start comment is funny, I was told the same thing, my name is Alexandria. Everyone told me that naming my daughter Decorah would make people think she is black when she turns in applications or paperwork where they only see her name not her face. I don't understand why it matters what race they think she might be... Shouldn't prevent her from getting anywhere in life, especially now when children are no longer raised to be so hateful, so they aren't judging by color anymore. I think that its just the way older generations were raised and taught to think

lol people are so retarded, I swear. through high school I was told that I'd become a porn star cuz only porn stars are named hollie. I always just ignored the ignorant people. you should do the same. I'd still be pissed off though.

Tyler... black... its a multi racial name.. ive never even met a blacm tyler lol.... but we chose ollie in the end... i really dont think race matters when you like a name. and jaydon is lovely... :)
