Devonta, Deonta, etc. When I was a substitute teacher these would always trip me up. They look feminine, and when doing roll I'd ask if 'De-von-tuh' was present and would scan the room looking for a girl. Then a kid would correct me and, typically, I would then have a classroom full of children going nuts and calling me racist.
You guys, being a substitute teacher is the worst.
