Welcoming little "Dude" into the world

Overheard one night on the Red Line at about 8:30. It was part of a more far-flung conversation, but this was the part I loved.

Member of the rock band Dude Man Bro:

"My kid's going to be born in a week, and I'm going to name him "Dude." This is not even kidding. The doctor said if she doesn't start labor in a week, we're going have him induced.

Other passenger:

"Ha ha. My wife's grandfather was named "Dude."
