Nicole Richie has given birth to a baby boy.
"In the middle of night, the very early hours of September 9, 2009, Sparrow James Midnight Madden was born to Nicole Richie and Joel Madden," she announced on her website yesterday morning.
Nic, who thanked fans for their good wishes, revealed the bouncing bundle weighs 7lbs 14oz.
There has already been analysis of Nicole and Joel's choice of baby name, with bird names being linked to spirituality and creativity.
While his older sister Harlow Winter's middle name denotes a season, Sparrow's is a time, Midnight. This is a naming technique popular in African culture.
Both names also end in "ow". Could baby Marrow be next?
