And I guess my point was that very few names would ever actually be "climactic." Their intent was probably not to causes maximum suspense followed by the bombshell of a lifetime: BAM! BEST MOST OUTRAGEOUS NAME EVER! ya know? Just to have the whole thing be kind of a surprise, where the only outcome is going to be, "Oh, you named her that? Cool."
My family knows I'm not going to tell them the name until the baby is actually born, but I'm quite sure no one is expecting a bizarre, shocking, climactic name reveal. Just a moment of "Woo! Cool, now we know."
