Comedian on The Challenge of Naming Children Will Have You Cracking Up

This comedian’s take on the challenge of naming children will have you cracking up. The funnyman Dan Viola understands that giving children the correct name is extremely important. Watch the short but laugh-out-loud funny clip to hear how and why Dan got so serious when it came to naming his children.

Children are a literal gift from the good Lord above. Once those little bundles of joy enter your life and come into your home, your life will be changed forever in every way imaginable. Of course, all those immediate changes will only be for the best. Your life will dramatically change, but it will be so much better.

Now, parenting is a significant and challenging task. Raising children is, without a doubt, the most difficult thing a human being can ever do. Anyone who says otherwise isn’t a parent. As a parent, there will be great, fantastic, uplifting and encouraging moments, but there will also be challenging and heartbreaking instances.

In a clip posted on YouTube, Dan mentioned one of those challenging parenting moments that occur soon after that little one enters the world: choosing their name. A lot is riding on that name – it’s literally what they will be called for the rest of their lives.

“I have also developed, over time, the utmost respect and awe and love for my wife for birthing basically a litter,” Dan said. “Just separated by many years. Oh, she’s good at it. You know what she’s not good at? Naming them.”

Dan says that when his youngest daughter was born, his wife suggested naming her Cecilia. Dan wasn’t on board with that name at all.

“I said, ‘You can’t name her that,’ he said. ‘What’s going to happen to this poor girl on the first day of classes every year of school? The teacher’s going to go down the list and say, ‘Cecilia, you’re breaking my heart. You’re shaking my confidence daily.’”

Soon after, Dan revealed the names of his other children, who may or may not have names from equally famous tunes.

Proverbs 22:1 “A good name is more to be desired than great wealth, and to be respected is better than silver and gold.”
