1. I’m a big fan of descriptive papers. 2. Racially-distinctive names signal a lot—relevant to the approach
@jenniferdoleac and I took in “The Visible Hand.” (Also, 3. My wife Jennifer’s sister is Megumi, and one of my kids has a more distinctively-Japanese name than the other.)https://twitter.com/lukestein/status/1048651051782606848 …

Speaking of that. Maybe one can find a family dataset with families where one child has a Western name, the other a non-Western name, but same parents (any combination of ancestry). Cannot have familial confounding in that way.

Trying to remember if/where I’ve seen that approach used. I like the idea! BTW, I have related work with
