So here's my announcement
I'm going to have a baby!
Quark: I thought your females carried your young. Thanks, Quark. Yes, my wife. My wife is having the baby. Worf: NOW? No, about seven months. (mid-January) Worf: Seven months, you say? Unfortunately, I will be away from the station at that time. ... Far away. Visiting my parents. ... On Earth. Um, Worf? I'm on Earth. Worf: Yes. Well, ... excuse me. (bolts) Anyway, so there's my exciting announcement. Bets may be placed on gender, name, and whether or not it will have forehead ridges.

Male, James T. Luke Kal-el Indiana Dean, and the ridges depend on how close the nearest toxic waste dump is.

Yeah, um, didn't even know you were married...
Sheesh, we are getting so OLD! The middle name should be Tiberius if it's a boy.

^Really and truly, don't follow Nate's advice. Tiberius was... not a nice fellow.
Congratulations! I wager on the name Joseph Peter Paul Andrew James John Thomas James Philip Bartholomew Matthew Simon Jude Linus Cletus Clement Sixtus Cornelius Cyprian Lawrence Chryosgonus John Paul Cosmas Damian Dean if it's a boy. If a girl, I'm guessing Tracy.

David Evan Roger Ernest Keith Dean if it's a boy, and B...screw it, I'm not spelling out "Blueberry" in girls names.

If anyone wants to see it, here's the ultrasound. I think it's too early to distinguish forehead ridges, but the kid definitely looks alien at this point.

^ Woah! Five exclamation marks in a row! My world is unmade!

Though honestly I'm kinda thinking no on the James name. Either I'll be naming him after James Dean or Jimmy Dean (and Jimmy could be either the singer or the brand name).

How about a middle name of Endicott in honor of Barclay?

Of course, instead of Bartholemew you could use Nathaniel. John 1:47. They're generally considered the same guy.

Sapristi sapristi! That's fantastic news!
The real question is, what will be the baby's account name be here on the board? It's never to early to start them off!

Congratulations, you three! (Don't want to leave the baby out of the congratulations.)
As for the name, I'll speculate that it will not be Eustace Clarence Dean. Just a hunch.

Might as well clean out the bottom of that barrel. Abby C. Dean. Does everyone feel better now?

Wondergirl McAwesome III!
You'll want a different name if it turns out to be a girl, of course.
