Darth Adds To Dark Side




Our own Darth has, along with his wife, squeezed out another future lonely Star Wars Nerd. He's cute, but he IS named Anakin. And we all know what the last guy named Anakin ended up doing.

That's right, he made some crappy movies.

Any, Congrats to Darth and more so to his wife, who has to put up with him.

9lbs 9oz 21 inches long, and yes, named Anakin. I wouldn't make that up, man.

Congrats!

But really...is he really named Anakin in real life? Or is that his G|A Name?

When someone says they wouldn't make something up, it's not an indication of opposite day.

Swear on a stack of honey covered monkey zombies that the first name is in fact, Anakin.

Thx guys..

We actually loved the name. And it is spelled Ani for short.

We looked at Ethan and Anakin and saw that in the baby book it listed Anakin as one of the few American origins and it means "Warrior"

You have a boy that you want to call "Ani"..(Annie)..man you better teach him how to fight early on in life..
on the other hand..he's a cutie and congrats
(ps...about the blankets that every nursery has..most hospitals choose their supplies from limited resources...there are only so many companies that hold contracts on birthing center and nursery items..hence..every place having the same ones..)

Well considering people do not and never did call me Stevie. I highly doubt anyone but his chic or parents will call him Ani. Of course I am sure judging by is size that he will be able to take care of himself hehe.. 9lbs 9oz. :-o

Thx for all the well wishes guys,
Stephen and Else

Yes that is true, but if you ever grace me with another son his name shall be Anakin Xavier.

Such a cutie, I love the name.
