Ghetto Names

This article contains some commonly seen ghetto names. Most of these names are new and unique and very few of them actually mean something. Nevertheless, they are very popular in most ghettos...
As the name suggests, ghetto names are most commonly found in various ghettos across the country. A ghetto is the name given to the African-American neighborhoods or communities, and it is considered to be a derogative term in some parts.

Ghetto names are those names that sound like traditional orthodox names, but are spelled differently. These different spellings are chosen either because the parents are unaware and ignorant about the real spellings, or because they want the child to have a unique name. Ghetto names are very common in most of these neighborhoods, and you will find many children and people there with very uniquely spelled names.
