I invented one of my own: Ethan. This is a twentysomething male, slightly effeminate, does uptalk, employs the full lexicon of the Woke religion, generally travels in a pack, who obnoxiously lectures people older than himself about basic truths even though he has no life experiences of his own.
Yeah, that's actually kind of how I used to picture people named Ethan. But then, darn it all, my son befriended an Ethan. He was a real sweet kid; seemed a little slow in the head, but very sweet. (I say "was" because I haven't seen him in a while, so I'm not sure what he's like now. He and my son had drifted apart, though recently they've resumed their friendship.)

Yep. And one of her friends videos the beat-down and posts it on World Star Hip Hop.

I'd have went with "Sharon" since that's a little harder edged. But there are so many slang names I use.
"Mavis" is a woman ignoramus. " Beulah" is a woman of size that's also like a stampeding rhino in charm.
" Shawn" might make a better nickname than " Todd" but both work. " Ryan" works , too. So does " Justin". I'm not fond of any of those names.
I use Cletus, Skeezix, lots of others.
I actually like the name Karen as well, so this whole meme about Karens being the "Let me speak with your manager" people is a bit mystifying to me as well. I see Shawn as kind of a slacker, albeit a friendly one; I don't really see him as a Todd as defined by the OP. Ryan strikes me as a little bit how Ethan was described above, except not as confrontationally obnoxious. And I like the name Justin, so there.
I can't stand Black Lives Matter and wouldn't want to patronize a store that had that sign in the window. But I wouldn't be a jerk about it either. I would calmly tell the employee why I won't be patronizing their store, then leave them alone and go about my day.

Let's get this to catch on! In fact, I wouldn't be surprised to see a few Ethans jump into this thread. Watch their behavior in their natural habitat!
Tom Cruise has starred as Ethan Hunt in these films:
Mission: Impossible (1996)
Mission: Impossible II (2000)
Mission: Impossible III (2006)
Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol (2011)
Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation (2015)
Mission: Impossible – Fallout (2018)
And in the next 2 years he'll be filming Mission Impossible 7 and 8.
I don't think this concept works with men.
Women are easy to pigeonhole, men are a lot more individual.
