  • Women caught on tape ranting and raving, often against Black people, have been dubbed "Karens," and the phenomenon even has a Wikipedia page, where the name is defined as "a woman perceived to be entitled or demanding beyond the scope of what is considered appropriate or necessary." So, why the name "Karen"? "You don't hear young people named Karen," new media expert Jamie Cohen said. We spoke to some real-life Karens about the development. #InsideEdition

    Ok. So, I'm basically named Karen Kassandra. I used to be called "Kassy" as Kassandra's abbreviation. One day, I felt in love with a really nice guy, and he was literally the only person who used to call me Karen. That's how I started to love that name of mine. Especially when I discovered that my dad was the one to chose it for me. It's been almost 1 year since I've started to present myself as Karen, cause it was such a lovely way for me to remember how loved I've been and will always be. And I feel so bad about the way it is used now. I feel like I want to come back to the old "Kassy", cause that's not how I would have liked things to be. One thing is being "disgusted" by "the" Karens and another one is saying that the name "Karen" actually sucks/is disgusting. There's a lot of people named Karen and I'm pretty sure the most of them were named that way because of a lovely reason, as in my case. I'm nobody to ask you that, but please, be respectful.
    Thanks :)

      Karen is still a beautiful name, despite the bad rap it's getting nowadays. I agree completely that people should be respectful. My name isn't Karen, it's Kelly. But I know that this current trend with the name "Karen" by making it an insult instead of a name, is hurtful to anybody who is named Karen, because many of these people don't fit the stereotype. I posted a comment about this on this video. I really feel that it's time to take back the name "Karen," start using it as a name again, and stop using it as an insult. It's time for this hurtful and hateful trend to come to an end.
