  I wonder why they named that kid that? No high expectations for him?

  Montezuma probably didn’t like to clean up after babies.

  Cuitlahuac, it sounds like over the counter medication.

  Cuitlahuac.. for that not so fresh feeling.

  That’s funny… I think there’s a type of Mexican food called “Cuitlacoche,” which I’ve heard translated to mean, “Corn Smut.”

  @ Ris: It does! the blasted thing is basically corn fungus which sounds pretty disgusting but isn’t that bad when cooked properly.

  Poor Cuitlahuac

  I’ve had four kids and the name is appropriate.
