[Somewhat off-topic]

Hmm... I wrote that "Shalonda" is used as a female name in the same way as the name "Sally" is used for all girls whose turn it is to be in the center of the circle in the older children's game "Little Sally Walker".   

Perhaps I should have phrased it "in the traditional children's game "Little Sally Walker".

Based on my research, it seems that {at least in my neck of the woods}, few American children who are beyond pre-school ages play the traditional circle version of "Little Sally Walker". And nowadays few older girls would be caught playing the older circle game song "Little Sally Walker", though a newer version of this song has been documented. That song, "Little Sally Walker {Walkin Down The Street}". That song has been posted a couple of times {by me and at least one other Mudcatter}. Since I can't readily find it, here's one version {Pittsburgh, African American girls ages 8-10 years, 1999}

Little Sally Walker
was walkin down the street
She didn't know what to do
So she stood in front of me
and said
"Ooh girl do your thing*
do your thing and STOP.
Oh girl, do your thing
do your think and STOP.

* This is also recited as "Ooh girl,shake your thang"

"Little Sally Walker {Walkin Down The Street}" is performed as a girl's circle game with one girl "Sally" in the middle of the circle. The girl in the middle doesn't chant the words but stands in the circle and dances to the beat of the rhyme. Girls forming the circle chants the words while they clap their hands {or the hands of both girls standing next to them}. The girls forming the circle also stomp their feet to the beat. On the words "Sally stood in front of me", the girl who is "Sally" picks someone to stand in front of and then does a popular dance move. The girl who she is facing and everyone else does that same dance move {but they may add their own unique "flava to the mix"-meaning they can perform the dance move their own way}. When the song ends, "Sally" quickly joins the girls forming the circle, and the girl she was standing in front of becomes the new Sally. This pattern continues as long as the "game" is performed.
