Tori Spelling and Dean McDermott welcome their son

Update:
Tori Spelling and Dean McDermott welcomed their son, Liam Aaron McDermott, today. Liam arrived by c-section and weighed in at 6 lbs, 6 oz, when he was born at Los Angeles’ Cedars-Sinai Medical Center.

Star Magazine has a photo of Tori and Dean arriving at the hospital.  She definitely looks like she’s in pain!

What do you think of the name?

Originally posted 4 pm:
According to Extra, Tori Spelling went into labor with her and husband Dean McDermott‘s first child together.  They checked into LA’s Cedars-Sinai Hospital (where many celebs give birth, including Julia Roberts). Their baby is a boy whose middle name will be Aaron, after Tori’s father, Aaron Spelling, who passed away last year.

What do you think his first name will be?

FINALLY!!!I knew she wouldn’t make it much longer!I hope Candy and Tori have reconciled.

- ashley on

Well she looked like she was about to P-O-P, it’s about time!!!
I have no idea what they will name baby _____ Aaron McDermott. Let’s see…

Blake Aaron McDermott
Jordan Aaron McDermott
Jackson Aaron McDermott
Vaughan Aaron McDermott
Jacob Aaron McDermott
Brett Aaron McDermott

I could go on forever & ever but those are some guesses… we’ll see, but I bet it will be funky and not too original for a first name.

- Sabrina on

aw, yay, i’m so excited for them!
no idea on a name. i will guess charles. haha.

- jaQ on

I’m guessing baby boy McDermott’s name will be either…..
Joseph Aaron McDermett (cute if nicknamed Joey)
Robert Aaron McDermott
Thomas Aaron McDermott
Ryan Aaron McDermott
Dean Aaron McDermott (named both after his daddy and beloved grandfather)
Daniel Aaron McDermott
Jackson Aaron McDermott
Matthew Aaron McDermott
Michael Aaron McDermott
There’s tons of possibilities, but these are just a few…

- J.J. on

Congratulations! Good luck on the delivery. Thank God, it’s finally here. No offense but Tori was ONE OVER EXPOSED PREGNANT CELEBRITY!
Maybe they’ll name him:

Christian Aaron McDermott
Bryce Aaron McDermott
Samuel Aaron McDermott
Cole Aaron McDermott

I don’t know..those sound nice to me!
Good Luck!

- JosieK on

Luke Aaron Mcdermott
Taye Aaron Mcdermott
Dane Aaron Mcdermott
Cole Aaron Mcdermott

I can’t wait to find out.

- Say on

Ha ha i like this guessing game – this is a total off the top of my head guess but

Kai
Lucas
Hudson
lol!

- Clair on

I’m so excited for them too! Maybe they’ll name the baby something like Jaden or Aidan or Alexander or Alistair or something along those lines!

- Janet on

YAY!! WOO! I’ve been waiting for this to happen, and I’m so glad for Tori and Dean!! I wish them the best of luck and congratulations! (Oh, and umm this is just a random guess but I think the baby’s name will be Daniel)

- CK on

I totally had a feeling yesterday (weird cause I really don’t care when she goes into labor) that Tori would have the baby today. My guess is William or Liam.

- Nicki on

The baby will be:

Dean Aaron McDermott

David Aaron McDermott

Torian Aaron McDermott

Jaden Aaron McDermott

Beverly Aaron McDermott

she just might give the baby a crazy name never know

- Sweetp on

She just gave birth….http://www.fadedyouth.blogspot.com/

- dolphin 47 on

umm….yeah? I’m not that excited, but whatever…

- ana on

:)

- Laura on

I am going with whoever said Jackson .. because it sounds good together Jackson Aaron … or they might go with something stupid … anyways … I love Tori and I can’t wait to see their new reality show!!!

- Ashley on

im gonna guess that they are going to give hime the first name aaron instead of his middle name

- brittany on

maybe…

Chandler Aaron McDermott
Chance Aaron McDermott
William Aaron McDermott
Michael Aaron McDermott
James Aaron McDermott
Jacob Aaron McDermott

maybe Orson?

- Callen on

I have a feeling its gonna be something nobody really uses but in some way is common im gonna have to say Blaze Aaron or something extremly french i mean her B&B is named after her dog and all

- Jayden on

Perez Hilton has a picture of Tori being brought into the hospital in a wheelchair

- Jessica on

I think Vaughan is a good one. I could see her naming him Vaughan Aaron McDermott.

- tessa on

I say David…..

- Courtney on

Yay for Tori! I can’t wait to see what she names the baby! She looked like she was ready to pop anytime now.

- Stephany on

Nooooo!!!

We were due the same day, this is no fair! I want to go into labor too! LOL

- Lilliness on

She’s been dressed kind of retro this whole pregnancy so I’ll guess something like Thomas or Leo or Arthur. Nothing exotic like Persimmon but nothing “popular” like Michael or Jacob. A lot of the celebs seem to be going for the “old-school” names lately (Ramona, Violet, Theo, Ruby).

- Ann E. Mouse on

charles? her ex hubby? maybe not. not jack coz thats dean son-CONFUSING lol. she said to LA times on sunday no crazy names but theyve picked 2 they like n gonna wait til they see him to name him. i have no idea- im rooting for joshua lol-hey, it’s jewish….( i think)

- ang on

E! was reporting that her mom was with her at the hospital

- Summer on

His name is Liam Aaron McDermott. Such a cute name for a boy!

- HeatherD on

People just announced that the baby’s name is Liam Aaron

- Sarah on

His name is Liam! I think it’s a great name and Liam Aaron McDermott flows nicely. Congrats to Tori and Dean!

- Cali on

she had the baby liam aaron

- Suzie on

ITS LIAM

- EllaB. on

His name is Liam

- Vanessa on

I just read it’s Liam Aaron & he weighs 6 lb 6 oz.

- Lynn on

I think her and her mother are talking according to her brother and both were supposed to be there for the birth.

I can’t say that this is a pending birth that I’ve been excited about bc I am not a Tori and Dean fan however this pregnancy to me went by really fast.

I think they’ll stick with a more traditional name.

Christopher Aaron sounds cute.

Matthew, Micheal, Benjamin, David….not really sure. Sometimes I wish celebs could bring back old traditional names. It’s like each celeb tries to top each other with their kids names…however who am I to talk since my kids def. won’t have traditional names LOL

- J.M. on

Nicki wins – she’s the only one who guessed correctly.

Congrats to Tori and Dean (and Nicki).

:>

- PSB on

Aww! How wonderful is that?! All babies are blessings. I know that they’re happy to finally have him here. What a JOY to be a mother! I know her father is smiling down upon her.

- Angel on

Love the name. Liam is such a cute name! Congrats to her and Dean.

- sid on

What a beautiful name.

- lulusass on

I was guessing she’d go for something trendy like Liam.

- Colleen on

so how long was she in labour for? anyone know?

- ang on

Well, I happen to love that name, but that’s because I have a Liam of my own!! Congrats to them! I can’t believe how little he weighed compared to how big she got :o

- Rebecca on

I love the name!!!

- MB on

Liam?

That doesn’t sound very Jewish to me. :(

- Principesa on

Liam is a good name.

- Kaley on

mmmmmm love tori but now that name is not cute sounds so harsh don’t roll off the tongue so well!

- sarah on

It sounds like Leah McDermott when you say the first and second name together.

- summer on

Congrats! I love the name Liam Aaron!

- willow on

Glad to hear the baby is finally here! I honestly can’t remember a celebrity we saw MORE pregnancy pictures of than Tori.

Let’s hope the baby helps heal the pain in the families involved.

This may be me but I though the baby would be much bigger. 6 lbs. is considered tiny today!

- Rachael on

Aww, I’ve always loved the name Liam. It’s on my list of baby names for when I have children. (whenever that will be lol)

Congrats to the new parents!

- Christina on

if i may, i would like to add the fact that dean’s parents r both dead (don’t know how long for) & he is probably wishing they could have been there today also.

- ang on

CONGRATS TORI AND DEAN!!! Love the name! I’m sure he’s a cutie – can’t wait to see pics! =)

- Erin on

My 22 yr. old son is Jacob Aaron McDaniel…. at the time my husband wanted Ian or Liam …. all good strong names… congratulations.

- Campbell on

LIAM!
Thats my son’s name! Obviously I love it

- rachel on

Congrats to them i wish them all the best for the years to come. They haven now enterd the world of mothers and fathers day. the names qute too :)

- Hayley on

Liam is a great name, and honoring Aaron with his middle name is wonderful…very nice, classy sound to it. Congratulations to Tori and Dean! :-)

- Jennifer on

Congrats to them! I’m sure she’s relieved that he’s finally here. I’m suprised by the name b/c I thought she’d go with something overly trendy, but its nice. Goes well with Jack.

- Heather on

Congrats to the couple. I love the name Liam. I, too, thought he would be bigger and at least weigh closer to 9 pounds.

- Kresta on

Aww, yay! She looked really cute throughout her pregnancy, and I love the name. And it’s pronounceable, too!

- Jessie on

that’s funny, my cousin’s name is Lliam Aaron too.

- alisha on

My personal opinion is that the name is pretty boring and over used. I expected her to go crazier with the name. I do think Aaron is a great tribute though.

- Karm on

im so excited for them, but i dont really like the name…

- diane on

I think the name Liam Aaron McDermott sounds really cute together. I can’t wait to see what he looks like. I wounder if he is going to look like his mommy or his daddy more then the other.

- Melissa on

“Liam” was so trendy a few yrs ago -lost all of it’s unique-ness.

Only 6.6 lbs!!! & Tori was so HUGE!

- ImpeachBush on

AH! That is so crazy! I need to go play the lottery or something. She’s not exactly on my “top watch list” but I just had a weird feeling. Very twilight zone.

- Nicki on

Actually Principesa Liam means ‘my people’ in Hebrew..I live in Israel and it is actually becoming quite a popular name here

- y on

Awww Liam Aaron is such a cute name!! Congrats to them!!

- Erin on

Congrats to them, but im not too fond of the name Liam.

- melissa on

I really don’t like the name but I’m happy for her.

- Sweetp on

I’m not a big Tori/Dean fan due to the circumstances by which they got together. Why not leave the respective spouses and then start dating in a respectable manner? Anyway, That’s there choice. As far as the name Liam isn’t bad but I like:

Jakob Aaron McDermott
Wyatt Aaron McDermott
Christopher Aaron McDermott
Seth Aaron McDermott
Mason Aaron McDermott
Patrick Aaron McDermott

- Dawn on

Liam is a great name!!! Congrats to Tori and Dean! Can’t wait to see little Liam!!

- tink1217 on

I like Liam Aaron!

Personally I prefer Liam as a nickname for William…details details

- Colleen on

Ah Tori’s going to have quite the lad on her hands, lil Liam how cute! ;)

I was going to guess that name although I forgot to post.

Yeah Liam, Noel, Damon, Graham, Paul, Jimmy, lol! Oh well…

Congrats to Dean & Tori and their new son.

- Autumn on

Liam is a beautiful name. Congratulations to Tori and Dean.

- Teba, CBB Reviews Editor on

Cute name. Liam is cute and I have always loved Aaron. I wish the new family the best.

- J-Lin on

I LOVE the name Liam! And it’s not as wild and crazy as I would have imagined. It’s perfect! And my brother’s first child, my new niece Abigal was born last night, too!!

- Adventures In Babywearing on

Is it me or does it seem like everyone in Hollywood goes like 3 weeks before they are due and always have c-sections? Hmmmm.. Maybe that way they don’t get really big and stretch out???

- Cha on

i’m gonna give birth in 1 month and I chose the same name! YAY for Liam!!! Congrats to Tori and Dean

- Marilyn B. on

I LOVE that name….my son is Liam Patrick
Congrats to them!

- Karen on

Finally! I’m sure he’s beautiful.

I read she had a c-section. Were there complications?

- Hea on

I was just thinking yesterday morning about how huge Tori seemed and I wondered if she would go early. Congrats to both of them!!

Hopefully, they can put their family rift behind them. Life’s too short.

- TwinMom24 on

I think Liam Aaron is nice. Liam is a good addition to represent Dean’s Irish roots, and Aaron is a lovely tribute to her father.

- Yonni on

Most people who have elective c-sections from my understanding have them early enough as to not go into labor. If her water broke the night before which has been reported and she didn’t have him until Tuesday afternoon or evening, more than likely her labor was not progressing quickly enough. If the baby is showing signs of distress and she’s not at 10 cm yet, there are really no other options if they have to get the baby out quickly. If she was choosing to have a c-section right off the bat, I think they would have done it soon after getting to the hospital the night before. Either way, it’s her choice but based on information that was reported, it sounds more like it was neccessary.

- shelley on

I read too she had c-section, like celebrities, but she arrives in labor and had c-section weird, Liam seems to be small 6 pounds cause she was so big during her pregnancy

- cassopolis on

Not fond of the couple. However, I like their choice of names. It has a great flow to it.

- landroverdisco on

Oddly enough I have never been a huge fan of Tori Spelling’s but I’m happy to hear that she delivered a healthy baby. I think the whole money thing and her inheritance was a blessing in disguise because I find her to be more humbling. And for the 1st time seemed to have to fend for herself and stand on her own two feet without the help of her rich parents. She’ll ultimately have more money coming her way in the future and I think her mother was just trying to teach her a lesson. And she seemed to have learned it. Moseltof to her and her family! Dean seems to really love her.

- Vera on

Does anyone know why she had a c-section?

- Lynn on

i am so happy for tori, and i absolutely LOVE the name!

- maren on

Congrats to Tori and Dean. I didn’t know that Dean had Irish Roots. I was wondering why he and Tori choose an Irish name for their new son.I bet you don’t find many Liams in California!

- Irishgirl on

Finally a normal name! I’m not much of a Tori/Dean fan but I wish them all the best!

- Catharine on

Liam is an Irish name.

- kelli on

Congrats to the McDermott family!!! He’s finally here!! A little bumped out that Tori and Dean didn’t go with my guesses, but that’s ok. Liam Aaron sounds perfect for the baby anyway. Anyway, can’t wait to see his first pic!! Know he’ll be sooo cute!!

- J.J on

A big congrads to you both. I hope you’ll have some peace to get use to being a family.
Lots of fun awaits you.
I’m sorry that Candy and Tory are not having a loving relationship. I hope that they can put the past behind them and start new.
Att Candy: Time to be there for your daughter and be a grandmother. You dont know what you’ll be missing. I’m a new grandmother and love every minute. Being a family is about forgiving each other and being supportive no matter what. The best to you all.

- Cindy on

cindy they are reconciling. candy was with her when she was in labor. this wasn’t a planned c-section-tori had tv appearances lined up the day before and day after the birth. they also had dean’s son with them the day tori went into labor, visiting on vacation.she wasn’t due til end of the month.

- ang on

I really like the name Liam, it was a choice for my son but we picked Logan instead. She was really big to only have a 6.6 lb baby! Congrats to Tori and Dean… welcome to the world baby Liam Aaron!
