Bobby and a famous panda

Bobby's Singaporean grandparents often call him Kai Kai (pronounce like k-eye, rhymes with my), and I recently realized that a panda at the Singapore Zoo also goes by the handle Kai Kai. In fact, they even share the same Chinese character: 凯. Kai means victory, by the way. Bobby's Chinese name is Ze Kai (泽凯).

Kai Kai the boy and Kai Kai the panda share some similarities. If you want to find out more, Kai Kai the panda's homepage can be found here: http://pandas.riversafari.com.sg/kai-kai.html. Kai Kai's hobbies apparently include napping and eating bamboo. Kai Kai the boy's hobbies include drinking milk and twisting his body around. He doesn't seem to like napping much anymore, although he sure seems to be happy when he wakes up from them.
