HelpRe: Sistine Rose - correction and note
in reply to a message by Julianne
This is actually Sly's second daughter with his current wife, Jennifer Flavin. Together they have Sophia Rose, Sistine Rose, and Scarlett Rose.
I actually admire his girls' names, which attitude on my part may seem bizarre, even counterintuitive. Say what you will about the repetitive use of the mn, I don't care. And obviously Sophia and Scarlett are names very, very close to my heart, so maybe it doesn't seem like saying much for me to say I like them. But I give big fat kudos to Sly for the cleverness (yes, I think it's very clever) of Sistine's name, because it combines Sly's well-known appreciation for art (including the Chapel) with the concept of little-sisterhood ("sistine" sounding so much like a diminutive of "sister;" having a second girl, without knowing a third would come, must have seemed quite novel to the man who only had sons for many years) and even gives a nod to his renewed Catholicism (again, by way of the Chapel).
Plus I just love Sly. :-)
