Suns guard Raja Bell and his wife gave birth to a little boy a few days ago. They named him Dia. WDYT?

I like it because it means something in an African language and it's different. I also like it because I'm a Suns fangirl. hehe.

Sounds like they should've bought a baby name book. Or maybe joined this community! >D

it doesn't sound like a name to me! A nickname, sure, but not a name name.

Definitely sounds like a girl name to me. I do kinda like it for a girl though.

As a JAZZ fan...who can tell with Raj anymore?

According to the official Suns blog, "Dia" is Raja's middle name -- so in this case I think it's cool, passing down a name instead of using something random. I wonder what they picked for their son's middle name.
