Summitkhan and Asiada Sitting in a Tree
You knew it would happen. First we had Sammitkhan. Now we have a baby named Aziada. Which is a much more beautiful name than Sammitkhan. Given the choice, I would vastly prefer to be called Aziada than Samit (although Samit isn’t too bad a name. Better than Bartholomew, for example, or Brooklyn). The father, who used to be a coach decided to honor the Asian Winter Games, which will be hosted in Astana and Almaty from 31 January to 6 February of this year.
The only thing odd about the story is that apparently he sent a message to his wife to name the child Asiada. A message? By text? Isn’t that a bit impersonal for such an event?

He send message because in most maternity clinics of KZ outer persons are not allowed to enter, in order to prevent from viruses and infections:)
Ah, that makes sense then. In the US usually people give birth and leave the hospital that day so we’re much less paranoid of these things.
