Three full names for American Girl's World By Us contemporary line have been trademarked! They are:
-Maritza Ochoa
-Evette Peeters
-Makena Williams
What do you think about the names? Personally, I think Makena is too close to McKenna (I don't like when American Girl names dolls similar things since I collect every American Girl doll), but I like the names overall.
Is it just me, or does the name Evette remind me of the name Smurfette? If I will get Evette, I will probably change her first and last name!
As far as dolls having the same name...Isabelle had the same name as Girls Of Many Lands Isabelle. That irritated me but people somehow didn't complain. I'm surprised people are upset by similar names when American Girl has been reusing names for years.
As a blk person though I think this is Mattel trying to cover up for the fact that they are not interested in making a blk GOTY. Most of us want to be represented in the country we live in. Contemporary dolls don't even last. I'd rather have a new blk or Asian historical to be frank or new blk or Asian GOTY. World By Us? I'm fine, thank you.
It would be really nice to have an Asian in the World By Us line. Hopefully, the name Ning will have a last name.
Really? Another Spanish and black doll? Does AG not realize that diversity expands beyond Spanish and black dolls? Not trying to start an argument here, but maybe they should try something new and actually different.
