The date of birth gave one more name

A TEN POINTS BABY BOY
FOR MINNI AND ROOPE

Finnish golf professionals Minea "Minni" Blomqvist's and Roope Kakko's first child was born on Wednesday night the 31st of March at Jorvi hospital in Espoo, Finland. The healthy baby boy weighs 3.9 kg and is 52 cm tall.

- Do you notice the date of the birth, asked the happy but exhausted mother right after the delivery.

- Well, it's the number plate of Donald Duck's car: 313 (= 31st of March). Roope and I decided immediately to add one more name between the already chosen two first names. Donald's Finnish name Aku complemented the baby's name to be Elmeri Aku Mikael Kakko, explained Minea exited.

- It was a heavy experience, but now it's all happily over. The baby had to spend his first hours with his father, while I was recovering from the Cesarean section.

- I was feeding the boy last night, but after that he has been mostly sleeping. Roope has taken care of him, while I have been resting. I'll have to learn those things when I'm back on my feet again. Obviously we'll be sent home on Saturday, at the earliest, told the figurehead of Finnish women's golf, planning to return to the LPGA competition courts by Midsummer.

Roope = Scrooge McDuck´s Finnish name
Minea´s nickname Minni = Minnie Mouse´s Finnish name
