What a name ...

"Ethan," I asked, "did you read this special feature on Carl Linnaeus? It says he's considered the Father of Taxonomy."

"Yes, I did," Ethan answered. "It was pretty interesting. I don't think, though," he mused very seriously, "that I would name my child Taxonomy."

Mom falls on the floor laughing, and Ethan looks very pleased at how well his joke was received.

Was it an intentional joke? Very cute. :)

Yes, it was intentional. His delivery was just really deadpan.
