For those of you who had "Tim" (or, god love ya, "Tebow") in the baby-name office pool, please feel free to rip up your stubs.
For those of you -- and there were several, amazingly -- who had "Ryan" pegged as at least one of the two names, you get half-credit.
(Although the "Ryan" is in honor of my wife's grandmother; any link to, say, Ryan Braun -- only the greatest active Jewish baseball player -- is thrilling coincidence.)
My wife is the hero of this story. She was phenomenal. Meanwhile, I can't wait to put our two boys together to form an unstoppably nebbishy JCC summer-league backcourt.
(While we are bringing back our mohel for the coming bris, that shouldn't stop Tim Tebow from joining us. You have an open invitation, Tim!)

Well, I had a feeling that "Barack Tebow" wasn't going to make the short list, but I do love the name "Jonah Ryan"! Mazel tov!!
Congrats Dan! All the best to you and your family.
Dugout screen name: JonahShanoffMessedWithThatGiantFish.
Congratulations, friend.
"Jonah" being a potential hybrid of "Joakim" and "Noah"?!?!?
Congrats! And you still managed to pay tribute to one former Gator. Remove the J, switch the next two letters...NOAH!
Dan, Congrats! Only 3 more and you will catch me. More Gator fans in the world is a good thing.
HERE WE GO DANNY!
I can't believe my 1-day-old earned a Dugout screenname before I did. Amazing. It's going in his scrapbook.
Meanwhile, BobbyStompy and wellsortof both earn a +1: "Jonah" isn't that far from a mashup of "Joakim" and "Noah" and it IS an anagram of "J Noah." (Ha: That was NOT a factor.)
Congrats Dan!
Don't let the boys start a band tho...
