IT'S THE CIRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRCLE, THE CIRCLE OF LIIIIIIIIIIIIIFE: In an era of Bronx Mowglis and Anniston Kaes and Marions and Tabithas and Hazels and Phinneii and Shilohs, here's something you don't see very often these days on the famous-baby-namer circuit. David Daniel Otunga, Jr. was born yesterday to Take-This-American-Idol-Title-and-Shove-It Oscar Winner Jennifer Hudson and her fiancé, wait for it, David Daniel Otunga.
So when you hear of a Jr. or a III or a XIV these days, do you think "ah, what a nice refreshing return to tradition"? Or do you think "sheesh, what a lost opportunity to bless the naming canon with another brand-new-from-whole-cloth name"?
p.s. I find it morally offensive to have linked to someone who thinks that David Daniel Otunga is Jennifer Hudson's "fiancee," but that's the first place I saw it reported, so I'm sticking with it. xox the spelling police
