Probably the most interesting part is the section that deals with how different segments of the population name their children... rich people, poor people, black people... it's great. I never knew there were so many spellings for stupid names like "Destiny".

 
haha they have that in writing? ive always noticed how stupid the names of inner city kids can get, but never thought it would be an academic issue and in writing. im gonna have to check this out.

ps, i briefly went to school with a girl named 'starr' in the 6th grade. ouch.

It's required reading for a few of the classes here at school (college)... I read it last year and I really liked it. I recommend it.
