Names people pick for kids

I will be honest with you I do like watching Nascar races. Think it is a family thing BUT anyways. One of the drivers in Kasey Kahne and I recently found out his middle name is Kevin. Making his itinals K. K. K.

Makes we wonder IF the parents fully realized all aspects of his name or am I reading too much into this.

There are names that are no longer used, like "Blanche."

And there are obviously ethnic names, like "Gunther."

Just look at the acting line-up for the kids on the Cosby sitcom.
