Nah, they make special christening bottles now, with pre-scored glass
and a net to catch the broken shards. 
Hell, just use a long neck Lone Star and have at it.
You know, I haven't had a Lone Star Long Neck since the day before I turned
18 when I walked into a San Antonio liquor store (you know the ones with
drive up window for beer and ammo) and told the clerk "tomorrow" would be my
18th birthday, but I just visiting and could I buy a 6 for me and my
friends. He said, are your friends from Texas (my license showed I was from
California) and I said yeah. And he said here you go, happy birthday.
We're talking a few decades back!
