Opening up an event in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, President Obama thanked his two hosts, Principal of Central City High School Jason McLaughlin and his wife Ali noting that they were about to have another child.

“They’re debating what to name their son, so if you have some suggestions — I asked them ‘What about Barack?’” Obama joked and added, “That name is not on the list.”
