As much as I embrace our Anglo-Saxon heritage, I am happy to be able to definitively tell you that the baby’s name is NOT Hrothgar. (In some ways it’s a shame — Dad has been coaching big sister E.H. on the pronunciation, and she has become quite proficient.)
At 2 days old, Baby Brother is already outgrowing his Easy Peasy Newborn Sock Hat (the pattern, by Keri McKiernan, is available in your choice of English, German, or Italian! http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/easy-peasy-newborn-sock-hat)
Feel free to leave suggestions for his name in the comments! If we’re really going Anglo-Saxon, I like Aethelbehrt, personally.
Lee Louise Etc. 
Hrothgar is pretty awesome, though.
How about Athelstan or Wystan? Ethelred? Cuthbert? Godric? Leofric? Wulfric?

All of these are good, solid names, steeped in tradition. Thank you for sharing!
(It’s a good thing I have not been given the responsibility of naming this baby.)
