Certain names just sound attractive?

    Jake, Joe, fred, lance, dexter, tyrone.
    I think we all form ideas based on nothing but the first name.

      Perhaps from our first impressions of people we knew with a name.
      Well like for me, the name "Danielle" just screams "bitch."

      Yet the male version, "Daniel" are some of the coolest I have ever known.

        Leggs, not my point.
        Based on name alone.
        Do you assume tyrone is a chinese boy?
        Do you assume Dexter is a 6'4" thick jock.
        Or do you assume, its a black man and a nerd?

          black man and nerd.

          Sometimes it seems a person's name almost causes them to be a certain way.

          I mean you probably don't find too many white collar workers with names like Ichabod or Dequan.

          It is like astrology though - fun to speculate but not based on solid facts

            Well said.
            Id hate to think a name forces the individual into a certain stereotype.
            But that dosent stop people from viewing it that way.
            A creepy guy named adolph.
            The stuck up bitch named
            Lovely Angel.
            The guy named bif.
            6'4" blonde, blue.
            Names mean nothing, but most people will make an association.
