I like the likening to the kids ... it's incorrect though. You decided about the name of the kids before they were born and I'm sure relatives had their say in the decision and voiced their opinions while your wife was pregnant and BEFORE the kids were finally delivered. The language misnamed and misadvertised as the next version of Perl has not been delivered yet despite more than a decade long pregnancy and so the relatives are still out bickering about the name.

Besides ... did you call your kids John 1, John 2, John 3 and so forth? Perl6 (let's at least write with no space to give the fulltext any chance whatsoever to tell the two unrelated languages apart!) is not an update/extension to the existing language, it's a completely different, overdesigned, overcomplicated, overobfuscated language. It's the language that killed Perl.
