The first time I encountered her name it was in a
quasi-fictional context and I thought it was a totally
made-up, stereotypical African-American name for a
fictional character. And if you notice, they only
missed it by one letter.
If I would have been her parents, I would have gone
for the Scott Joplin opera "Tremonisha".
