Can priests be Godfathers?

[J_VICTOR]

I need a clarification on the above subject.My wife is yet to deliver a baby and we were discussing whether we can give a Godfather position to any Priest who is known to us. I just want to know whether it is accepted by Catholic Church. please explain in detail.

Regards,
Victor
