Reply:Taschika is the worst. Neither name is anything to write home about though. LOL
Reply:the 1st one.
Reply:lol girl I lived in the Grove I couldn't even spell them.





the first one, the second one I think sounds cute though


What are some odd names, unique, but not too ghetto. I like Kazmyn(like Jazmine), and Kiamond, Like Diamond?

You know when you first posted the question, I checked it out and you had no responders. My initial thought was that the 2 names you chose sounded a little ghetto but I wasn't going to verbalize my opinion. After seeing some of the responses I thought I'd share my thoughts.





The names sound as if you just made them up. Pulled a few letters from the alphabet and wha-la! I don't like either one. Sorry. Hope I didn't offend. Not my intention at all.

Reply:sorry, i think Kazmyn is pretty ghetto! how bout, Kayden or Jayden?
Reply:No offense, but saying these names sounds "ghetto." Personally, whenever I hear inventions of the sort that's what comes to my mind. I know is bad to perpetuate stereotypes and I do NOT mean to be disrespectful. I like classic names, Jasmine I think is very pretty. I also like Amanda, Allison, Chiara, Anne.





Good luck in your name search!





PS-There are many sites online which can give you many ideas. You might be able to find something unique, but prettier and they give you the origin and meaning.


Would the name loquacious be a Ghetto name?

It would depend entirely on how she was brought up and who she had as friends. The name itself means 'very talkative' but hardly anyone would know that!





I think it has the potential to be a very pretty name if she grows up to be a young lady of grace and elegance - but if she makes some 'ghetto' friends then it could go the other way!





But as a name for a baby girl - I think it's sweet :)

Would the name loquacious be a Ghetto name?
She will get made fun of - most people are smarter than you. I wouldn't hire her. Report Abuse

Reply:She'll get a job.. As a porn star or Stripper, with a name like that I can see she'll get far in the Adult industry - but not much else.





Stupid Ghetto name for a Stupid Ghetto mom. Report Abuse

Reply:Extremely. If the average person cannot pronounce it and it is not a foreign name, it might be ghetto.


Please do not name your daughter that. It's something she will have to live with, and be judged by for her life.


Some employers do discriminate and if the same see the name "Loquacious" on a resume, she probably wouldn't be hired unless her skills were extraordinary.








ETA: Actually, Ghetto names originated in the 1960s during the Civil Rights movement. It was supposed to be a method of rebelling against the rest of society by choosing a name that differs from what they deemed as acceptable...
Reply:Yep! That is a ghetto name without a doubt! Call your daughter something sweet and nice, just like you want her to be! There no guarantee of course, but don't stick her with one of the crap, made up on the spot, usually incorrectly spelled names that people use these days to try, without success, to be cool! Whatever the hell THAT is!


And do look up 'loquacious' in the dictionary!


'Ghetto' names originated in the USA among black people living in ghettos, and has spread to Trailer Park whites. Generally people with no class, who think they can acquire some of that elusive stuff by giving their kids a 'different' name! These kind of people can generally be seen on the Jerry Springer show, both black and white. Whatever colour you are, go with the decent people of your race, and give your child a proper name.
Reply:Well given that I can't pronounce it without a some trouble, I'm thinking it might be a little ghetto, but there's nothing wrong with giving your daughter a ghetto name, if that's what you want to name her.


Don't change your mind because of what other people are telling you. You'll regret it in the long run.
Reply:Yeah, it does sound sort of ghetto.





Honestly, your child's name is not usually the best time to exercise your creativity. Whether it's fair or not, a name like that is going to come across as pretentious.





With the way people name kids now, I'm just glad you aren't going to name the kid Money or Lexus.
Reply:Your mom and friend are right.





Read the book Freakonomics -- specifically the chapter about baby names and how people with ghetto names have trouble getting jobs.
Reply:No, it isn't ghetto, but that name won't look good on a resume. Well answer this question: Do you want people to make fun of your child in the future?
Reply:loquacious- excessively chatty; full of trivial conversation





I would say not so much ghetto as it is just not nice
Reply:I'm not sure if its "ghetto", but its definitely ridiculous. Does it even have a meaning or is it just a bunch of random word parts thrown together?
Reply:what is wrong with a nice conventional name?!?!?!?! with a name like Laquacious she has NO chance of getting a job when she's older. save her the embarrassment
Reply:Thats very ghetto, and to be honest any name ending in ious will sound ghetto.
Reply:I love the ghetto, so lets hope it is, Elvis singing In The Ghetto, what a performance
Reply:Don't hang a handle like that on your baby. Give her something sweet and pretty she can be proud of.
Reply:Yes. Do you know what it means? In gentle terms it means talkative- in familiar terms it means 'big mouth'.
Reply:Absolutley.





Future Ghetto Rat with that name.
Reply:oh wow.


simple answer is YES.
Reply:VERY!!!!!!!
Reply:It sounds like a ghetto name
Reply:Please don't!
Reply:Sorry but yes!
Reply:yep

If there is a way you can know possibly what country in Africa you or the father or family is linked, that might help you find some really need names! Otherwise I would have been lost at naming my daughter. Nyala is a pretty name but Im not sure where it comes from.
