Comments for the name Keshawn

A variant of this is Keyshawn, used by American football player Keyshawn Johnson.

What is wrong with these parents who take a perfectly good name and then mangle them into these horrendous "names"? It looks like something that some lower-class person might give to their son; trashy, stagnant, harsh, insubstantial (by that, I mean that there's no meaning to it), something that might set your son up for trouble if he climbs up the social ladder; who will take him seriously with an indignity like this?

The prefix really ruins this name. It's pretty obviously a ghetto name, and people will have very low expectations of a guy with this name.

I usually don't like modern names, but this one I find tolerable. I'd prefer to spell it "Keshan", though.
