Afterall.... she IS her daughter - and why should the child carry any indication of Nicole masquerading as her mother for her entire life?? Also, should the child keep 'DiMera' as her last name since EJ will be revealed as the father?? Or should Rafe just immediately adopt her??

Hmmm - this latest revelation can stir up a WHOLE lotta possibilities!!!

I personally think Sammi should rename her Rapheala - since it was Rafe who truly brought her back to her real mother.

Thanks Scottie - I guess I missed that one. Someone wrote about Sydney being given the middle name of Grace - which I thought too would be a nice gesture. Then again, I still think some reference to Rafe would be neat as Raphaella - and she could be called Ella for short.

Although I agree about how confusing it can be to change a character's name eg. the whole Zach thing. Afterall, I never caught on to Chelsea actually being Georgia....which is why if they DO change her name, I hope it's now when she's still an infant - and not when she fast forwards into her teen years which will probably be by February sweeps!

This would be a good time for the writers to indulge themselves in the fact that Sami is Catholic (so is the actress! I met her once while doing Late Nite Catechism..me as the nun, she won the Immaculate Conception dashboard Mary because she knew the answer!).

As much as the ridiculously lame advice Chloe got from the old Padre from the Waltons...please..no priest would EVER give that advice to a married woman.

I digress. Raphealla is a great idea! I second the motion. Not only would it vex EJ no end, St. Rapheal is the patron saint (although he is an archangel) of young people in love, finding your life long mate....

wow - what a great post thedabera - and who knew that both Sami and Ali are Catholic?? Wait - she won the dashboard award by knowing the answer?? I take it she was in the audience of one of your shows?? That must've been fun. From what I've heard Ali is a hoot in person - and I'm sure on the set. Great story!!
