Most of these names have no trace of Africa in them, but are instead challenges of how many syllables can be thrown together.

Some former students:
Myson (cuz he was, you know, her son)
Shakeitha

D'Errica
Kyshaun

I'm forgetting most of the good ones now that I've been out of the classroom a while...
