Lovely isn't it? The hope that man carries on his shoulders is quite something.

Yeah, but what happens if Barack Obama screws up? Then you're stuck with the name. That's the chance you take when naming your kid(s) after a celebrity.

I am old enough to remember noticing that some people I knew of were calling their babies Kylie - they are grown women now!
