I really need to find or create a Big Book of Very American Names because like Christman I just cannot get enough of this shit
EDIT: Folks, I appreciate the suggestions, but these simply can’t compete with the likes of Erasmus W. Beck, Walter Chichester Quintard, Zales Nelson Ecton, Zebulon Baird Vance, Jeduthun Wilcox, and Sydenham Elnathan Ancona
no I did not make a single one of those up
The podcast Boonta Vista sometimes reads lists of Distinctly American Names and it rules
They’re not always civil war ass Phineas Hitchcock or Thelonious Fuller but they always sound american somehow
They seem to have very low standards for what makes a ridiculous American name
Probably because they’re not american. I hear about people named Dick and Randy every day so those don’t faze me, but a normal English name like Reginald sounds goofy to me.
My rap name
Talk shit all you want but his mixtape is 🔥🔥🔥
when you’re older than NATO but you were born with a soundcloud rapper name
