    No matter the suffix, “Geodad” sounds like the kind of dad to appreciate.

      I’m a geologist and when my son was little, he called the geodes that I brought home geodads.

        See? You sound like an awesome dad, as predicted.

        I was homeschooled. Once my mom brought me to visit a couple of geologists at their home. They had a collection of stones at their house and opened a few of them for me; at least 2-3 of them were geodes, rather than simply stone through, as they expected. Apparently this was unusual, so the trip stuck with me. I bet your son learned at least as much about rocks (and, to be fair, other stuff) through you!
