What Did David Name His Newborn Son?

by Mallory Schlossberg

This just happened in celebrity baby news: David Arquette is now the father of a baby boy! His son, Charlie West (no relation to North — badumcchh), was born on Monday, April 28 in Los Angeles at 12:35 p.m., checking in at 8 pounds and 7 ounces. This is Arquette's second baby, but his first with his on-again-off-again-girlfriend, the 33-year-old television host, Christina McLarty. It was confirmed back in November that the two would be having a child together. Arquette has a 9-year-old girl, Coco, with his ex-wife, Courteney Cox.

As for the current state of things, a rep for Arquette told People that:

Mom, dad and baby are doing well [...] They appreciate all of your well wishes and thank you for respecting their privacy at this time.

And just to clarify, for those of you who assumed that Arquette might give his baby an obscure name like many celebrities do, it's just not the case here. It's a pretty normal name, save for the North West jokes that are bound to happen (see above for further proof). But you can't deny that "Charlie West Arquette" totally sounds like a Hollywood name.

Congratulations to the happy new parents!
