More on Asian Names

Tolu brought up a great point that I have meaning to comment on for a while. What is up with all these super generic Anglo names that Asian/American parents pick for their kids? How many Mike Lee's or Eric Chang's or Jennifer Wang's or Benjamin Ko's (hehe) do we need in this country? How bland can you be? Possible names for my kids if I ever get married: Valerie, Courtney, Autumn, Sonya, Niko, Lawrence, Neo, Rocky, Maximus, Major, Nigel, ESPN, Bruno, Gostanford.com. The possibilities are endless. Major Liu sounds like a fucking Chinese restaurant, so maybe not that.
