The bouncing genetic lottery winner of Halle Berry and her boyfriend, Gabriel Aubry, officially has a name.
The Oscar winner’s rep confirms to Us that the prepossessing couple has dubbed their little girl Nahla Ariela Aubry.
Nahla is an Arabic-based name that means, “drink of water,” which is fitting given that her model-father has often been described as a tall one of those.

The pair’s little thirst quencher reportedly made her debut on Sunday morning in Los Angeles, tipping the scales at 7 pounds, 4 ounces.
The moniker was apparently a last-minute decision for Halle, 41, and Gabriel, 32, who met in late 2005 while shooting a Versace ad together.
“We didn’t have a name picked out until just before we left the hospital,” the actress reveals to “Access Hollywood.” “For us, it was hard to name the most important person in our life until we met her.”
With all the goofy names that stars give to their children, I’m so glad that Halle didn’t choose Dingle, Blue, Raz, Cheery or Tea.
Here’s a list of some celebrities and their children, and some interesting facts. You get to decide what’s normal, unusual, and just plain weird!

I am a firm believer that you should wait for that epidural to wear off before you name your child!
Fifi Trixibell?? That poor mother must have thought she’d gotten a new poodle instead of a new baby!
And Ariela?? Ain’t that the pink part around the nipple??

Your cuzzin’, TrailerparkSkipper was thinkin’ on naming her baby, Aerial. And, that’s exactly what I told her….it sounded like part of a tit.

Have drugs curdled these people’s brains, or are they genuinely nuts??
