Matthew McConaughey Becomes a (Shirtless) Dad

The former "Sexiest Man Alive" is officially a proud papa of a bouncing baby boy! Actor Matthew McConaughey and his girlfriend of two years Camila Alves welcomed their bundle of joy Monday evening in LA, according to UsMagazine.com. The unnamed baby is the first child for both parents. In true surfer fashion, McConaughey blogged about how "stoked and wowed" he and Camila were back when announcing the pregnancy. We can only imagine how "totally amped" the two are now that the baby has arrived!

Now the question is, "What will the little guy be called?" Think they'll go with one of those "distinctive" Hollywood baby names or something more classic like McConaughey's first name? Secretly we're hoping they name him Monday to complement Nicole Kidman's newest addition. — Gina DiNunno

I hear the baby was born wearing a turtleneck. Kids never turn out the way you expect! :(

Hopefully Matthew will be more committed to the kid than he apparently is to the mother, he's just another committment shy man.

Well, let's see...Matthew's brother Rooster (I'm not kidding) named his son Miller Lyte (again, not kidding).

Maybe they could call this one Shiner Bock or Dos Equis.

No, Chappy, these celebrities need to learn to keep it simple.
There's nothing wrong with a plain, old-fashioned name, like Corona Lime. Or Bud.

If they want to go for distinctive, though, I think Toker Weed has a nice ring to it.

That does have a nice ring to it! And a bit of a buzz.....

That's fun to say!

Here's a thought for the future....if Matthew ever has twins, I think Smokey and Bandit would be kind of cool.

Hey - these people are celebrities! And she looks pretty classy, so I'm sure they'll go with something like Courvoisier or Patron

LOL, you guys are silly... though my vote would have been for Stoli. ;)
But seriously folks, how about a relatively non-weird name like Levi Alves McConaughey. So they went with the jeans instead of the booze. It could have been worse, right? At least they didn't name him Wrangler.

That would be cool to have a kid name "The Man"!

I like that -- it's very AbFab!

I went to that link. The explanation for the name was very interesting, coming from noted nude-bongo-playing-pothead-Bible-scholar Matthew McConaughey.

Oh, yeah, and I hear he's an actor, too -- although that can't be ascertained by anything that he's done in the last seven or eight years.

I totally thought he would be named Og Mandino McConaughey. I'm actually a bit floored that he wasn"t....:)
