VoyForums Announcement: Programming and providing support for this service has been a labor of love since 1997. We are one of the few services online who values our users' privacy, and have never sold your information. We have even fought hard to defend your privacy in legal cases; however, we've done it with almost no financial support -- paying out of pocket to continue providing the service. Due to the issues imposed on us by advertisers, we also stopped hosting most ads on the forums many years ago. We hope you appreciate our efforts.

Show your support by donating any amount. (Note: We are still technically a for-profit company, so your contribution is not tax-deductible.) PayPal Acct: Feedback:

You and the author assume that a disservice is being done to the child based solely on the notion that the name is a turn-off to the hiring person. Even if such a handicap were still to be a handicap two decades from now when our hypothetical child enters the workforce, we are still being asked to assume that such an impediment would trump all of the potential advantages to having a "black" name.
