Help[Opinions] When naming a child, how much do you worry about how the name will sound on a resume someday?
I've been pretty stressed about this, I read a study showing resumes with traditionally black names are judged more harshly than resumes with white names. It makes me worried about giving my child anything but a traditional white name. But I have a "unique" cultural name and I did fine, so maybe I shouldn't worry so much! I don't know...
My first child has a pretty traditional name, but was also named after a relative. For my second child, a lot of my favorite names are less conventional in the US (think Amos, Shai, Shalev, Adin... I just made a poll with the full list) but I'm worried about affecting my kid's future if I do that.
