Naming Your Baby After the Godfather … Movie
Meg Ryan got it right in “You’ve Got Mail.” Every guy in America knows the “Godfather” by heart and can probably recite all the lines verbatim.
Bill over at Inside Fatherhood takes it a step further. He wants to name his child after a character from the movie. No, there’s not going to be a Don Vito Inside Fatherhood wandering around. Lord knows there’s enough of those already.
Rather, he takes the name from the lowly baker, Enzo. And gives three solid reasons for the choice, including the fact that Enzo stuck around to help Michael defend his father in the hospital. (God I hate when Meg Ryan is right — this is too much knowledge of a movie.)
It would seem odd to take a name from a movie filled with criminals, but Bill manages to find one with a touch of class and honor. I vote Enzo!
