Wendy is a given name generally given to females in English-speaking countries.
The name is found in United States records from the 19th century; the name Wendy appeared over twenty times in the U.S. Census of 1880. In Britain, Wendy appeared as a boy's name in the 1881 census of England, and was occasionally used as a diminutive for the Welsh Gwendolyn. It was also used as a surname in Britain from at least the 17th century. However, its popularity as a girl's name is attributed to the character Wendy Darling from the 1904 play Peter Pan and its 1911 novelization Peter and Wendy by J. M. Barrie. The name was inspired by young Margaret Henley, daughter of Barrie's poet friend W. E. Henley. With the common childhood difficulty pronouncing Rs, Margaret reportedly used to call him 'my fwiendy-wendy'.
The name Wendy is sometimes considered a variation of the (originally Polish) name Wanda.
Various Chinese rulers have held the name and title Emperor Wen, which in Chinese is read Wen(-)di (文帝). Chinese women with the same or similar-sounding characters as their given names often anglicise their names as Wendi or Wendy (e.g. Wendi Deng, Wendy Kweh).

Hip hop or hip-hop is a sub-cultural movement that formed during the early 1970s by African-American and Puerto Rican youths residing in the South Bronx in New York City. It became popular outside of the African-American community in the late 1980s and by the 2000s became the most listened-to musical genre in the world. It is characterized by four distinct elements, all of which represent the different manifestations of the culture: rap music (oral), turntablism or DJing (aural), b-boying (physical) and graffiti art (visual). Even while it continues to develop globally in myriad styles, these four foundational elements provide coherence to hip hop culture. The term is often used in a restrictive fashion as synonymous only with the oral practice of rap music.
The origin of the hip hop culture stems from the block parties of the Ghetto Brothers, when they plugged in the amplifiers for their instruments and speakers into the lampposts on 163rd Street and Prospect Avenue and used music to break down racial barriers, and from DJ Kool Herc at 1520 Sedgwick Avenue, where Herc mixed samples of existing records with his own shouts to the crowd and dancers. Kool Herc is credited as the "father" of hip hop. DJ Afrika Bambaataa of the hip hop collective Zulu Nation outlined the pillars of hip hop culture, to which he coined the terms: MCing or "Emceein", DJing or "Deejayin", B-boying and graffiti writing or "Aerosol Writin".

Daybreak, another new day shines
the school dance is coming in
She's giving dad the 'Please can I,
Charlie is taking me'
‘Charlie that worthless son of a gun
You better ask your mom'
She said: 'O dad give me a break,
a miracle is what it takes
If you say yes, she can't say no'
And dad said; 'Allright, go,
but there's a curfew and behave,
don't spend all your money
O and Wendy? Be home 11.30
Wendy, you better listen to your daddy'
11.30, home she is
'Mom, dad, I'm going to bed'
Kiss, kiss and goes upstairs,
She’s sneaking out the window,
tearing up her rental dress
Her friends are waiting down the street
'Hey Charlie, Tom and Emma, here is Wendy,
brought a bit of brandy'
Wendy listen to your Daddy
Safe sex and liquor in the punch
Hangs out with Charlie and the bunch
Wendy in the backseat of a chevy
Supposedly the night is gone
Wendy had lots of fun
But daddy screams: 'What have you done,
you're grounded 'till your twenty-one'
Wendy, you should have listened to your daddy
