Your family is mean and racist. Name it Andre just to push in into their faces how wrong and mean they are. I like Andre better and it isn’t a "black" name. So stereotypical... So rude. Your family is rude

I went through this same thing when I named my son Davion (Davey-on). Name him whatever YOU like regardless of what your family thinks.

I would worry about what your family think! Andre is a delightful name!

AndrĂ© is actually the French version of Andrew. Yes, it’s popular in the black community but so are a lot of names that are multicultural. However, due to the prevalence of the Sha,La and De beginnings in black naming practices, I would consider a DeAndrĂ© to be a black child. Just ignore your family and give your child a name you love.

Andre is french not black. LOL
I know a white person named Andre and he is never told he has a black person name.

Like others said, Andre is not a "black" name...it is French. And DeAndre definitely IS a "black" name. Go with Andre!
