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.

Are you saying that Latina and blacks do not deserve to be recognized? If you hate the idea of Latina or Black, just buy Truly Me dolls, or buy retired diverse dolls. As a black person, this offends me, but not too much. There is Truly me 61, and 79 if you are looking for an Asian doll that is still available. A muslim doll is in this line, too! (YOU SHOULD REALIZE THAT YOU ARE KIND OF BEING RACIST AND THERE IS NING, RIGHT?).
