I was watching that show Beyond Scared Straight. It's about this program that take at risk teens who are out of control (Drinking, Drugs, Fighting, ect.) and takes them inside jails to show them where they will end up at if they stay on the track they are on. Anyway there was an inmate named Clifton and I might not like what he did or anything but when I saw and heard the name I was like that's a cool name. It's a nice older fashioned name in my thoughts but it seems to fit in modern times too.
