Washington, D.C.

Dad Craig had this to say about his little Brady (who also has a twin!):

“This is Brady (right) with his identical twin brother Jack (we didn’t name him Gronk). Our Brady is going to be 6 in May. I would say his name was “influenced by’’, but not “named after’’ Tom Brady. Of course I’ve been a Patriots season ticket holder for 20 years now . . . However, my wife also really liked the name. Because of her Irish heritage she always wanted an Irish or Irish sounding name. Although we live in DC, they are huge Boston sports fans and seemingly know every player on the Pats, Bruins, and Sox. Took them to their first Sox (at Camden Yards) and Bruins (in Boston) games last year, however, it’ll be a few years before I get them to the Pats.’’

Ohio

Here is what Scott Blackburn from Ohio has to say about his first-born son named Brady: “I told her {his wife} if Pats/Sox ever won championship, first born would be named after MVP. In 2006, we had our first child and named him Brady (over Deion and Manny :)’’
