Jennifer Garner’s baby name revealed

The latest addition to the family of Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck has a name! If you thought the parents of Violet and Seraphina might go with something off the wall like many of their celebrity counterparts you, my friend, were dead wrong.

Jennifer Garner’s newborn baby has been given the tried and true name Samuel!

Ben Affleck broke the news of his first son’s name by posting the following message on his Facebook account:

“We are happy to announce on February 27, Jennifer gave birth to a healthy baby boy, Samuel Garner Affleck.”

Word the couple had welcomed their first son broke Tuesday, the day after his birth. “Our girls are working on names,” Jennifer Garner shared during her pregnancy. “At first they were definitely Disney. It was like, Donald Duck, Minnie Mouse Affleck. And then they’ve moved on. Then it was Peter Pan, Captain Hook, Smee.”

The BabyCenter Names Finder lists Samuel as a Hebrew name meaning “asked of God.”

Personally, taking into consideration Violet and Seraphina’s names, I’d expected something a little more unique from the Garner-Affleck name generator. Can’t give them any flack for going with something that has stood the test of time though!

What is your reaction to Jennifer Garner’s baby name choice?
