I actually do remember that. Not sure that this preference would necessarily have been passed on through Adam to his own son, though... though, he may have offered Leonard a choice in all of this; or they may have studied together [seems likely] to determine the best of all possibles for this beloved newborn. Time will tell, if and when they decide to share their details.

For now, I'm sure the baby himself doesn't mind about all this. Completely in peace with the world like babies are.

The tradition in Greece is the first male grandchild
to take the name of the paternal grandfather.
(Talk about patriarchy!)
So, we'd have a Leonard Cohen Jr.

Congratulations to Mom, Dad and Granddad!
Asher has to be my favourite bible name...
And Cassius is ok. But... Cassius Cohen? Hm. Gimme Asher Cohen any day. I hope he's a chip off the old granddad block - only happier.
