Grandpa Discovers Grandson Named After Him And Cristiano Ronaldo

A proud grandpa couldn’t hold back his tears when his daughter surprised him by naming her newborn son after him – and their favorite soccer star Cristiano Ronaldo. Dad Elias had no idea what daughter Naomi Polanco, 26, has planned when he walked into her hospital room in San Diego, California, on June 11. Both before and after the birth, Naomi and her husband kept their planned name a secret, even frustrating family members who had called following their baby's arrival, asking for details. So, when Elias, 46, walked into Naomi's hospital room, he first laid eyes on the sleeping newborn, before reading a plaque that at next to him, which read, "Cristiano Elias." As soon as Elias saw the name, he bent over in shock and welled up as he took everything in. Naomi and her husband are huge soccer fans, and so they decided to give their son the first name Cristiano, after the legendary Portuguese forward Cristiano Ronaldo. But they had always wanted to give him the middle name Elias as a loving tribute to Naomi’s dad, who has always been great to his other grandchildren, she said.
