Yes, BUT, I don't think it's strange to meet a white Terrence. I DO think it's strange to meet an Asian Terrence.

All love OP.
 
haha, my professor and I was just talking about this last thursday. we both agreed that the name doesnt belong to a race, but majority of people we know namedterrence is black. speaking of which, my name is terrence and i am filipino/samoan.
 
Actually, Terence is of latin origin. Just because all of the "Terence's" that you know are black doesn't mean that it's a black name. Maybe you just need to get out more and meet more people. That's like saying "Williams" or "Johnson" is a black last name (they bothoriginate from Europe). Anyone with any form of social skill that doesn't relate to Niketalk would know this.
