One of the things over here is the use of what I call "old people names".
For years nobody has named their kids names like Alfred and Albert, but all of a sudden its become this fad to use names that have no right to still exist outside of an old peoples home or a cemetary.
This is especially the case with African girls.
They either have an old womans name or get called names like Honey, Precious, Honesty, Modesty or Chastity.
They think they are giving them English names because they live in England, but nobody English uses these names!
There is an Indian family that own a shop local to me, and they have 3 daughters and a son.
I am not sure whether they came here before or after the kids were born, but all the kids had proper Indian names, yet the parents tried to make their names more English, by renaming them all.
The boy was lucky as he became Robbie, but the girls were saddled with Sunny, Honey and Picky!
