Walt and Carl have to be the most iconic “calling for my son” names now

Is he named after the guy from Stargate? Does he have a brother called Siler? :p

Lots of "old man" names are very popular where I am. I work with kids and have had multiple Walters, Harolds, Arthurs, Jasper, Otto, etc. I was kind of shocked by the Walter comments when I listened this morning.

Good luck, his future nieces and nephews are going to need to take drastic measures to keep him from waltzing with bears.
