Pretend you were in this scenario, what would you do?
Unexpectedly, you give birth to a healthy full term baby boy. You had no idea you were even pregnant. You are now given the task of naming him within minutes. On such short notice, what would you name him and why?
I think I may go for John Daniel Newton Cetta
John is a family name; the name of my uncle, great-uncle, grandfather, great-grandfather, several great-great uncles and about 10 cousins, and I love the name. Daniel is a very large family name. Actually, Daniel Bray, who is my some amount of greats grandfather, had is boats stolen by George Washington in order to cross the Delaware. He actually has a town named after him. Newton is my (other) great-grandfather’s name. Cetta is my last name.
What about you?
Wow, I’d be in a predicament! I am not married. I’d have to go with Dominic James Thomas Celli. I love the name Dominic. James was the name of my father, who passed away in October from brain cancer. Thomas is the name of my boyfriend’s father and brother. Celli is the boyfriend’s last name. If I became pregnant nine months ago, it would definitely be his. 
I’m traditional in that I don’t think I’d want little Dominic to have my last name [Miller]. I plan on being with my boyfriend for a while, so I’d hope that we’d eventually get married… Not that I agree that having a baby is a good reason to. It would be because I love him.
P.S. Eh, paisano! I love your last name!
