    Until it starts becoming a slur, all old lingo comes back after skipping a generation or so.

      And names. How many years before we start having Betty, Wilma, Frances, and Edith again?

        I think white people names are overrepresented in the names chosen by white people. Instead of naming your kids France, name them Equatorial Guinea or United Arab Emirates.

        Can you look at a newborn infant and seriously say “your name is now Edith”?

        I think names need 3 generations or so before coming back
