After a long month of anticipation, April the giraffe gave birth to a beautiful baby boy two weeks ago, and immediately, the wait for his name began. In an online poll, there were several fan-favorite options including Apollo, Geoffrey, Gio, Harpur, Noah, Ollie, Patch, Patches, and Unity. But ultimately, fans voted most highly for "Alyssa's Choice," which let the zoo name the animal instead.

Although he's likely to go by "Taj" for short, Tajiri is the Swahili word for "hope," and the name is strongly associated already with animal conservation efforts around the world. But now what we want to know is...

If Tajiri were instead named one of the other top picks, which would you have chosen?
