What do you think of the boy name Makon?

Im having a mixed baby, and alot of people have been saying either the name is just ugly or to much on the black side, and that my child will be considered just "black" and not mixed because of the name. Is it cute or a bad idea? and its pronounced macon like macon GA but with a K.

What do you think of the boy name Makon?
I think it looks too ethnic. If it is gonna be pronounced macon then name him Macon!!!

Reply:give this child some sort of chance in life, with that name he won't have it
Reply:thats rediculous, it doe not sound black, in fact it is kinda cute, the question is really up to you....
Reply:Poor kid will get Makin' Bacon for years to come. Doesn't matter your intent, which is honorable. The reality is that the name is what it is and kids are cruel.
Reply:i like malcomb better but you know your kid have fun good luck
Reply:I like it better spelled with a "C", but it's not my kid.... I really like the name, and it's not on my name list strictly because my last name ends with "on".... it would be too "rhymy" for my liking....





As for people saying it's a "black" name - the actor William Hurt played a character named Macon in the movie "The Accidental Tourist". He's as white as they come.... Maybe people are saying that because if I'm not mistaken, there's a rapper named Akon? Anyway - that's just ignorant to say something like that.
Reply:Bacon yummmmmmmm
Reply:It is a very unique name but the name should not be based on if the child is mixed or not
Reply:Makon is a brand of women shoes


I do not like the name, but if you love the name, then it's prefect name for your son

It is a very cute name ,dont .let the races shake you up and make you insecure!! do what you want,I named my daughter Majic,isnt that a black man? she is 100% caucasian!!
Reply:Makon Beacon. Sounds like a Disney character. No I don't like it.
Reply:I don't really care for it, but the baby WILL be half black...so why not give him that name? Remember opinions are like a**holes...everybody's got one! Congrats!
Reply:I was going to point out the Macon, GA connection. It's not a bad name, but I personally think people would associate him with the South (regardless of race).
Reply:it rhymes with bacon... who doesn't like bacon?
