The much sought after secret is...drum roll...picking a professional name for your child, hint hint...no ghetto names...
Ne-Yo's words, not ours!
Reports:
Take Ne-Yo, who thoughtfully selected “a very strong, very stout name,” for his second child, son Mason Evan.
“We needed him to have a name that felt like a gentleman, like somebody you have to respect, ” the singer tells Wednesday at New York’s Liberty Theater.
“Mason Evan Smith, you have to respect that name.”
“I’m not going to be that dude that predestines my children's future,” he says. “I’m just going to do my best so that my daughter doesn’t end up on a pole and my son doesn’t end up on the corner. And whatever they do outside of that is pretty much their decision.”
...Definitively something to consider, because some people's names out here, you just KNOW they wont get a job!
