It's a Boy!!!

So I just found out I'm having a boy....I'm thinking Jason Heyward as a first and a middle name. (My wife already ruled out Larry Wayne) Any other cool Braves themed names?

First off, Congratulations!

As for you’re question- you could go any classic Brave (Henry Aaron- hey that might actually work as a normal name) but remember, this is your kid’s name for the rest of his life. As much as we like to joke “Oh, I’m gonna name my kid Jason Heyward” or whatever, imagine if that was actually you’re name- Jason Heyward (Whatever). It would be kind of weird. So just think twice about giving you’re kid a braves themed name, but don’t think twice about making him a Braves fan.

Yet again, congratulations on the baby!

can't go wrong with Dale

It’s old enough so his friends won’t get it and won’t be weird

I have always like the name Shea…

Ryan, obviously. I say go with Klesko as the middle name, if he ets picked on in school for it, he can follow his namesake’s example and pummel anyone who makes fun of him with a small tree he rips up from the ground.

Shouldn't Reid Gorecki get a shot in RF before that Heyward kid everybody talks about?

I’d say name him Andruw, but I don’t want your kid to be at risk for heart disease by age 30.

Congratulations. As a devoted student of the early history of television news, I’ve joked about naming my son “David Garrison,” a modification on Dave Garroway, the first host of NBC’s Today program.
