Reply to: Esther by Fiume dei sogni
All the Esthers that I have met have been red-heads. No joke. And Jewish. I've met three of them, all red-heads, all Jewish. I do not think black woman at all. And even if it did, why is race an issue? I don't think my parents named me thinking "oh no someone might assume she's some preppy white girl" when in fact I'm biracial? There's just so much wrong with that. It's a biblical name, it's the name Hadassah adopts to keep from sounding too Jewish. Name your kid what you want, not what "fits your race." Blending these apparent racial lines is what gets rid of them.
