Ages ago, I worked at a resort that was part of some kind of work exchange program. The long & short of it is that the resort basically ended up importing like 25 Jamaicans that they fundamentally treated as slave labor for the summer. They had really unusual names, but not like typical African American names. The 3 I worked with & grew to be friends with were named Elroy, Garfield, and Bastion. They had tiny feet. I took them shopping once & they were all checking out women's shoes. I miss those guys though.
My son is named Roland, which is an old family name. It's a good name because it's not very common, but also not unheard of. Thats how my name works too. My family has like 10 first names that we all just recycle. It never gets confusing because we never reuse a name while someone is alive. I don't have many living relatives.
I agree with the OP that kids' names are getting out of hand. I've heard some real stupid ones recently. A guy I know just named his son Asher. White people need to stop naming their kids after places- Austin, Dakota, Madison, etc.
So somebody just reopened this 3 year old thread, and I gotta say I LOL when you said they all had tiny feet.
Also the person who reopened this 3 year old thread suggested we would have an infusion of Corona names. That's interesting because the last two weeks when I'm at work (at Amazon, where we have cannisters of hand sanitizer set up every ten feet) I can't stop thinking about Jackson Browne. On his classic 1976 album, The Pretender, there is a song called Linda Paloma. That song pretty much sucks, but there is this line where he more or less tries to rhythm Linda Paloma with The Sun's Bright Corona, so it's stuck in my head. At least that reminded me of the good songs on the album, The Fuse, Here Comes Those Tears Again, and The Pretender. So yeah, Jackson is not a new name.
As far as current events suggesting names for kids. I never wanted or had kids, but Dylan's album Desire, also 1976, had a song called Isis. I love that name, and I thought some day I would get a little black cat and name it Isis. That name got ruined good.

Roland is a cool name. Mostly beacuse of the Dark Tower series
I know a kid called Storm. He just isnt badass enough for that name 
You basically need to be raised a pirate or something to earn a name like that imo

He was named after the band... before they started to suck. But most associate his name with never ending story

I wonder why this would be.
Coold it be that the band took its name after the Neverending Story?

'Atreyu' is an American metal core band with melodic death metal and hardcore influences from Orange County, California. Contrary to popular belief, the band did not intentionally name itself after Atreyu, a character from Michael Ende's novel, The Never-ending Story. Rather, the name was suggested to them by a friend of the band.“
Either way, cool name. His girlfriend and her girlfriend both really like it. That’s all that matters lol

Propecia, get in this house, and tell your sister Lyrica, and your brother Boniva dinners ready. Tell your Aunt, Bellsomra too! Call your cousin Adalimumab from Persia after dinner.
