Now that I think about it I would have had Jiraiya raise Naruto, indirectly if not directly (like being an old dude that always looked after him despite not living together), since Jiraiya is his godfather it never made sense to me that the first time Naruto meets Jiraiya is when he is twelve. Unless of course the role of a godparent is different in Japan than where I come from than I guess it can be left as is.
