Geraldo

Geraldo is a Spanish and Portuguese given name, equivalent to Gerald.

In American usage, the name strongly evokes Geraldo Rivera, the television journalist known for sensationalist reporting and talk shows.

His 1986 live broadcast opening Al Capone's vault—which contained nothing—became a byword for anticlimactic spectacle.
