The world It’s over, but the fever it unleashed La Escaloneta continues to bear fruit, especially for its Captain: in December 49 babies were registered with the names of Lionel or Lionela, in homage to Lionel Messi. This is how he made it known Civil Registry of Santa Feprovince from which it is native “The flea”.
The registration of babies with the name of the Captain of La Albiceleste is not new, but its exponential increase in recent times is. In September, around 6 registrations per month. Between October and November it reached 32but in the month of the World Cup it exploded, reaching 49. Registrations in the province were distributed as follows: 22 in Rosario, 20 in the City of Santa Fé, and seven distributed throughout the rest of the province.
What is interesting is that the rest of the members of La Scaloneta were also honored with inscriptions, as confirmed in recent days by the director of the Civil Registry of Santa Fé, Mariano Galvezto local media: “In recent weeks there were babies registered with other names of the members of the team, such as Julian (Alvarez) either Emiliano (Dibu Martinez). But the most requested name is Lionel’s,” the official clarified.
In addition, the fact that the director of the National Team, Lionel Scaloni, has the same name as “La Pulga”, could have been a factor that promoted the trend.
On December 18, right in the middle of the celebration for winning the title in Qatar, a baby was born at 7:55 p.m. at the Eva Perón hospital in Santa Fé, and was baptized with the name of Lionel Angel Carrizo. The interesting thing is that the father of the baby is called Diego for Maradona. The National Team continues to make people talk, and football continues to reconfirm its title of “passion of the crowds”.
