2017年2月2日 · There is no such thing as a POC name. There are Igbo names and Japanese names and Hindi names and a multitude of names from a multitude of ethnic groups, but there is no such thing as a POC name. All “POC” tells me is that your character is not white. You need to be more specific. Not every black person has a name of African origin.

2021年12月22日 · These are helpful to consider whether a name is appropriate for that character, and not just a random name clearly chosen by a white author off an "African baby names" list. There are some good posts on r/desinamenerds r/namenerdsworldwide r/behindthename and r/namenerdspanish for finding popular names in different cultures, but unfortunately ...

My first name is American and not super common, but everyone has heard of it lol. My last name is an ethnic name, but also very common especially in Texas/California.

2024年2月3日 · I didn't need any sort of attestation. I just needed to get a new NICOP for myself, on which I would mark myself as married and write down his name as my spouse. Along this I needed to just upload my marriage certificate from the country we got married in. Then, when he applied for the POC, he wrote down my NICOP number as his spouse.

2019年11月18日 · Hi, I'm a mail man which I guess makes me a federal civilian employee. On the applicant contact form, it asks for a HR POC (name, email and phone #). I left this section blank because there is only a website and maybe a hotline that the USPS uses for HR. The HR department is mostly automated.

2020年4月5日 · If you need to make race obvious, and it doesn't seem out of place, consider giving them a name that is more popular to that group. I am not saying pick names from 70s black exploitation content. Look at trends. The New Orleans mixing pot has a French influence, so if it fits, consider names involving Le or De, or French-origin surnames.
