text: Being mixed race is hard. And I can't imagine how hard as it is as a parent. My sisters and I have a "english" first name and punjabi middle names. My brother had a Punjabi first name (which he loves) but it got him picked on a lot.  You have to deal with people not being able to pronounce or bullying but at the same time you want to be true to you and your culture. We plan on naming our children traditional Mexican and Punjabi names but trying to find ones that flow a little easier or look aesthetically a little easier.
