Being the son of a Media Mogul, attending boring charity events for the common diseases and causes bored Marc as he grew up. It wasn't the causes that bored Marc, really, but the fact that it was the same causes over and over. Breast Cancer, Multiple Sclerosis, March of Dimes, blah blah. When Marc signed in Orange County, he wanted to find a charity unique and underloved.
He searched his soul and there was one cause that stuck out in his mind above all others. He set up the charity called Fathers Against Nevaeh, or FAN. There's an epidemic of terrible people in this country naming their daughters Nevaeh, thinking they're being clever because it is Heaven backwards. But all it is, is annoying and destructive to that child. Like AIDS or Child Obesity, it has become an epidemic that nobody wishes to talk about. Marc stepped up and said something.
"People of America, Fathers Against Nevaeh will strive to educate young mothers on the negative effects of the name. It is completely unoriginal, and will more than likely lead your daughter into prostitution by the age of 13. Studies show that the first generation of children, currently ages 5-8, are suffering from higher than average rates of depression and suicidal thought. One such case in Tacoma Washington, a young girl age 6 tried to take her life because she hated her name so much. FAN reached out to the parents of this beautiful, yet poorly named, child. We convinced them to rename her to a much more accepted, and less terrible name, Alicia. Since then Alicia no longer has thoughts of depression, suicide and her grades in 1st grade have gone from Cs to As and has become the most popular kid in her class."
Don't name your daughter, Nevaeh. For her sake.
