I would be shocked if anyone was being racist or thinking themselves superior by making a list of funny sounding names that made them laugh. It’s just a coincidence that the funny names would possibly be a specific race. This seems obvious given the fact that the names were chosen for being funny not because they were names belonging to specific races. Any name that didn’t sound funny yet was a person of another race didn’t likely make it to the list… unless they specifically had a list of “non-white people using white sounding names”, etc.
