Jerimiah? is it more 'white' or 'black'...?

Whenever i introduce people to my best friend they always seem surprised that he is a white male... never ceases to amuse me. I just want to know what comes to mind when you see the name. Is it more 'black' than i think??

Both 27
Black 67
Never thought about it 42
White 39

    You mean a Jewish name right, because saying its anything else is being ignorant.

    Skin-color based? No.

    GEOGRAPHICALLY based? Yes. To me that's a name more used in the mid-west or south, in the bible belt area.

    Jerimiah makes me think of a white Amish person or something, not black.

    it could be because they expected your friend to be black because you are black, unless your not black. But people tend to hang around people they feel comfortable around which is typically the same race. For me, I am white and group up in a community that was almost entirely black. So I prefer to hang out with pretty much just black people. People are shocked when they find our that I only hang out with black people.

  • I think it's more of a mixed guys name but It could be either black, white, mixed, Hispanic,..etc. Either way there's not a rule that says white peoe can't be named Jerimiah so who cares? No offense

    My black neighbor jokingly told me my son's name sounds like a black name. I had never thought of it. Funny though.

      @ whatthefuc - What i still don't understand is this, if you don't have anything decent to say...why waste your time commenting? Its really simple to just skip over this question and move on with your life.

    Nope I'm half white and the white side of me definitely claimed the name Jeremiah. My black half likes the name jebediah better anyways

    My given name falls within a certain stereotype (which I'm not going to mention). People have teased me about it my ENTIRE life, but it doesn't bother me when they do. It's no biggy.
