2021年12月22日 · There are some good posts on r/desinamenerds r/namenerdsworldwide r/behindthename and r/namenerdspanish for finding popular names in different cultures, but unfortunately those subs aren't very active. (Also, just a quick note: “POC” means “people of colour”, so “POC character” and “POC actor” are redundant.

2017年2月2日 · Now: 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.

POC = Point of Contact so that person's name and title at the school

2019年8月10日 · All of their backgrounds influence and move the story a lot. There are also a number of characters whose arc depends on the fact that they've been stripped of personality and names, but there are hints to being POC as well (in description of skin tone, and one of their names is revealed later).

2024年3月9日 · I have seen people talking about closed/poc names lately, so i was just wondering what's you alls opninons about them. Because i keep hearing so many different answers; some people saying it's fine, some people saying it's not fine, some saying it's fine if the alter is fictive, some saying it's fine as long as that name doesn't belong to real/known person of color and some who just haven't ...

2021年7月6日 · What're your thoughts on pen names? Are they ethically/morally okay to use to hide my demographic information?
