    Maybe the name is cuban or venezuelan, those kind of names are somewhat common in low income areas in Venezuela at least.

      I had a Colombian friend tell me about this phenomena as well. He is actually from a humble background there so he has a right to laugh at it, and I bring up how my family does this- my father hates his name, as it was given in the trend of bougie self-centered housewives of the 1950s, and this tradition has continued - girls named Hunter or Reighleigh and such and boys with names like Asher and Billings. This is also what poor white people often do these days, too.

      I try to focus on bad, bougie white people names, but I allow myself the joy of laughing at any name. Maybe I shouldn’t, but I am just having some fun.

      I recollect asking a Chinese friend about a mutual Chinese person’s name when I noticed that her name on her documents were different and the name sounded flashy - my spider sense for cringe bourgeois names tingled, and I brought it up, and he immediately smiled ear to ear when I asked “Is that like a name you pick when you think you are the main character of a TV show?”

      A French friend had told me that there’s this stereotype of poor French people giving their kids pure American names like ‘Johnny’ and ‘Mickey,’ etc.
