Re: Birth Announcement- and it’s a doozy!

It's great, I like it. It does seem like a name a dad would pick for a first son.
I can think of several nicknames off the top of my head, that might be fun, depending on what sort of guy Caratacus is. Cary seems really bland and unnatural (although I like Cary, just not so much as a nick for Caratacus) and Atacus is dumb because it's one of those things where people try to have it two ways. I think I'd just enjoy being able to refer to / call him by Caratacus until he was old enough to appreciate nicknames.
