Congratulations!
Seriously though, Juni and Joda (presumably pronounced Yoda)?

I wonder what month their daughter was born in. As Juni is German for June (the month).
Kaisa’s note: Juni was born in July, actually.

Juni is the German version of June. You pronounce it you-nea (with the ea spoken as in the word sea). I think it’s a cute name.
But Joda (indeed pronounced yoda)???? WEIRD! Isn’t that the name of a star wars character?

I didn’t know Nick had children.
Congratulations to him on his new son.

Joda was born shortly before the GP, which took place yesterday, so shouldn’t that read “July 22″ then?
Juni and Joda….hmm, odd names. As Joda is pronounced like Yoda I bet that boy will get teased a lot in school.
And Juni, German for ‘June’? Well, it sounds nice. And I know that June is an often used English name, and I know that other countries don’t have the same rules we have here in Germany when it comes to naming your child, but I wonder that the registry office approved of the name.

My 1st reaction was “What! He’s not old enough to have kids!” He looks so young and it’s easy to forget that he’s been driving F1 for a while now.
I wonder if the names are popular in Germany. They sound strange to us (I think Juni is cute) but maybe he feels the same way about names that are popular here.

@ Nicole:
No, neither name is popular in Germany. In fact, I’ve never heard of anyone with those names…
@ Sarah:
Yeah, that seems strange… Doesn’t he live in Switzerland though? Maybe the Swiss registry office wasn’t as strict…
Then again, I guess, it always depends on the individual official. Remember Wolke Hegenbarth?
