Reply:A ghetto name is 3 syllables and used only by black people. Here are many examples: http://malaysia.answers.yahoo.... Report Abuse

Reply:Different factors may cause this behavior.





*Self-hate caused by racial indoctrination.


* Association. This factor is very strong and is very hard to escape. Imagine you grow up in a low-income neighborhood and a lot of the girls there have names like Rashanda, Takia, Shaneeka, Shanequa. As time passes you will realize that this names are mostly given to people that belong to a certain group. So you will develop a mental relationship, which is that the chances of someone having one of those names and being a low income and unsophisticated are much higher than the chances of that person not being those things. This logic is flawed because it is only rational to think that if a large number of AA live in the ghetto a lot of people in the ghetto will have names that are considered black. You can revert this for instance. If you ask an AA about names that sound racist you can be sure that they're going to choose names that are used mainly by whites only. So names like John, Mike, and Peter will may sound more friendly to their ears, but a name like Friedrich which is used mostly be Europeans will be perceived as "more racist",





This might not be what people want to think, but I try not to base my answers on wishful thinking.
Reply:usually in most occassions/ SOMETIMES!!!!!!!! if a name has 3 syllables its considered a ghetto name, and people all get defensive when people say that its a ghetto name but it is marquisha, renisha marquida, laniqua roshanda narkiki naimisha shanikua shamina mashina niquama mariqua rashida marisqua zamina nequama jariq devonte jamani jovani jokomi ............ and i can go on and on, the funny thing is i know people with most of these names and im from the hood so im just being real about wether you like it or not!

Reply:dont listen to girls on this they answer these sorts of questions as frivilously as theyre asked.





I think your answer is that guys need to be assholes to get most girls these days, so guys will tease any little thing about a girl, thinking that the girl will respond positively (they usually do) the guy doesnt mean anything he says, hes just tryna play the game.





Of course occasionally a girl will get genuinely offended or upset inspite of all this being so obvious and the fact its the girls that demand this sort of behaviour, its best at this point for the guy to change his strategy realising this is a girl who either doesnt play the game (is a nice girl) or is just a pig headed ***** who plays badly and should be avoided.
