[Opinions] Re: American Names
There are no 'legit' names that began in the United States unless were are talking about Native American and Native Alaskan names or made up black American names like Shaniqua and DeAundre, etc. because America is such a melting pot. All of our other names have come from other countries, have derived from surnames (which originate in other countries), or are simply nicknames of names from other countries.

Yes. Americans use both Fall and Autumn. They're just synonyms to us. nt  ·  LuzDeTuVida  ·  7/29/2009, 1:06 PM
