there goes all my respect for St Bono of Dublin...

Elijah Bob Patricius Guggi Q (son of Bono and Ali Hewson)

nuff said.

on the bright side, have decided it is acceptable to name my son, should i ever have one, Finn. But not, as my father suggested, Finn McCumhail *Surname*, because McCumhail sounds too much like a McAdjective-Meal.

Hewson? Presumably? Surely he wouldn't be so cruel as to give his baby a stage name?

depends if hewson is bono's surname or just mum's. kid could be elijah something-hewson

Ah, yes - Bono's real name is Paul Hewson.

then i assume out long-tailed monkey of a child is a Hewson in turn ;)

At least it's got a normal surname so it can retain some shred of dignity... Dear oh dear.

indeed. Elijah Hewson isn't so bad. Elijah Bob is still good... it's Guggi Q that's the problem!
