Not for another four-score years or so...
Europeans aren't going extinct for another three- or four-score years, because... Well, in part because we're making a new little European, Anki and I. :-)

Congrats
..and I guess s/he'll have to be named something like Cheksum, eh?
So then, it's comforting to be pretty sure you'll be raising an average-raiser - and with no local Home Security Police to contend with, either. (I guess too - there goes any hopes for a Cisitalia next ;-)
Have an Akvavit or three on me, if I can figure a way to send -->

Nah. Knowing Christian, it'll be something like "That fucking! kid"

Congratulations!
And, to really help European population, you'd better have 2 kids. or 3.
We have only 2 things to worry about: That things will never get back to normal, and that they already have.

For a name:
"Adelphia" for a girl, "Pascual" for a boy.
Didn't know you had found a better half, good deal.

Get some sleep now...
...you're going to need it.
No matter how tired you think you've been in the past, it is as nothing to what you're going to feel.
Well done! Give Anki a big hug from me!
(BTW, "Peter" is a fine European name.)

Thanks, guys!
And I'm sorry, Peter, Bill, and all of you who suggested what to name him/her, but that issue seems to be out of your hands already. (Although Ross got pretty close to how an idol of mine, [link|http://www.drbob42.com/delphi/home.htm|Dr Bob], did it -- scroll down to the very bottom and read the first entry, from 1996! :-)
I think we're going with Leif if it's a boy, for my best friend back home in Sweden. I'm lobbying for Leif Dietrich Romanus, but my father's name is meeting with tough resistance, primarily because non-Germans are so bad at pronouncing the 'ich' sound... If it's a girl, it will probably be some combination of Sofia and Julia, for Anki's maternal grandma and mine, respectively. (Also the respective second given names of Anki's Mom, and my second-youngest sister.)
Will give Anki a big hug... For you guys to, if I can be bothered to remeber! ;^)
