"Baby, your father saved us." Isis smiled gently at the infant lying next to her. "When you grow up, you're going to be just like him..."

"Should we give him a name?" Marin asked excitedly as she thought it was time to give the baby a name.

Everyone exchanged glances before turning to stare at the baby's father.

"Who, me? I'm worried I won't think of a good name for him." Feeling everyone's eyes on him, Rocky smiled hesitantly. He had never named anyone before.

"You are his father. Of course you should be the one to name him! If you don't want the baby, I can take him," Marin grumbled under her breath.

"Then, we will call him... Nigel," Rocky said with a grin after thinking for a while.

"Nigel? What a strange name. I don't think it's a bad name, but it does sound a bit strange..." Sabina said, scratching her chin lightly.

"Yeah, why not change it?" Marin chipped in.

As the baby's grandfather, Lance had no objections. He was happy enough to see that his daughter and grandson were fine.

"Let's use the name given by Basil. I think it's a good name!" Isis knew that the name Rocky suggested must be meaningful, and she really liked it. It reminded her fondly of the past.

"Well, little Nigel, it's time for us to leave! Let's leave your parents alone." With that, Marin held up Nigel gently and motioned for Sabina and Lance to follow suit.
