Brenna Gray gives birth to girl

Congrats to Brenna Gray, wife of late Slipknot bassist Paul Gray, who gave birth to the couple's first child, a baby daughter named October Dedrick Gray, on Tuesday, August 17 at 11:10 p.m. October, who "looks very much like her daddy," weighed in at five pounds, 14 ounces and measured 19 inches long. According to a Slipknot spokesperson, the mother and the baby "are doing great."





I find it somewhat funny about a few things here. 1) The baby is name October, yet she was born in August. 2) Her middle name "Dedrick" has its first pronounced-syllable as "dead", as in, her father is ..... and 3) Her first and middle initials come out to be O.D., as in her father ..... on drugs. Coincidence? Why couldn't they give her a pormanteau of their names, like Paulenna or Brennaul, or perhaps something as simple, yet rather boring, like Paula? Do these parents want to see their kids stuffed in a locker, or beaten up and bullied because they made the mistake of giving their kid a stupid name?

In either case, I'm sure Paul would have been proud. However, I must admit that I feel nothing but sadness for the little girl, who going to grow up fatherless. Girls who grow up like that eventually become strippers or porn stars -- the kind of girl that members of Slipknot usually go for.
