Tony and Lhotse Hawk welcome daughter Kadence Clover

Skater Tony Hawk, 40, and wife Lhotse Merriam Hawk, 35, have welcomed their first child together, a baby girl. Daughter Kadence Clover Hawk was born Monday, June 30th at Scripps Memorial Hospital in La Jolla, CA.  She weighed 8 lbs, 8 oz and was 21 inches long.

Kadence joins big brothers Riley, 15, Spencer, 8 ½, and Keegan, 7 this month, Tony’s sons from his previous marriages, who are "super excited to have a baby sister." Lhotse will be released from the hospital on Thursday.

The couple announced the pregnancy in February, revealing the sex later that month. Lhotse’s due date had been June 15th.

Cute name, except I’m not so much of a fan of Cadence with a “K”

They took my name! We were going to name our next daughter Cadence! Not that we still can’t, but I never thought I would see it on CBB.

Congrats to the whole Hawk family!

I can’t even believe Riley is already 15.
Congrats, love the name.
It’s so cute he finally has a daughter.
I wonder if she’ll be a skater too.

I love love LOVE the name Cadence (not so much with a K…lol), and I think Clover is cute too.

- Maddy on July 1st, 2008

Clover is an interesting name choice that I’m not the biggest fan of, but it sounds SUPER cute with Kadence

- Brit on July 1st, 2008

How cuuute.

Does anyone know how to pronounce his wife’s name? It’s very unique as well as their daughter’s.

- Kait on July 1st, 2008

Anytime I hear the name Cadence I think of the little girl in the burn unit from the movie Shallow Hall.

How cool! It’s hard to think of Tony as ‘all grown up’ but here he is. He’s hardly changed, really. Must be a healthy lifestyle… and a beautiful wife. They eat their veggies and drink Purple and chase kids all day, lol. Sounds like a fun life. Congrats to all of them!

Yay finally a celeb uses my daughter’s name! We have a three year old and her name is Caydence Ryleigh. I’ve loved the name Caydence for a long time. Congrats to them!

- Shannon on July 2nd, 2008

Kate-

I think it’s pronounced “Lot-see” or “Loh-tsee.”

- P on July 2nd, 2008

According to IMDB, Clover is also Lhotse’s middle name.

- Janine on July 2nd, 2008

Aww, congrats! I think Kadence is a beautiful name. It means “musical”

- annie on July 2nd, 2008

Little Kadence will be well looked after (and have lots of playtime) with all the big sibs.

I LOVE the name Kadence, that’s the name I plan on giving my future daughter… Congrats to Tony.

- Peavy on July 2nd, 2008

Congrats to Tony and Llotse!!

That’s where I delivered my baby girl too. Great hospital.

- Sally on July 2nd, 2008

kait, it’s pronounced “LOT-see”. i had a friend in college with the same name.

i think the middle name clover is cute! seems like lhotse has been pregnant forever! i thought she’d given birth awhile ago and we just hadn’t heard about it.

wonder why CBB is reporting lhotse’s middle name as merriam if imdb says it’s clover….wonder which is correct or if she has 2 middle names?

- MB on July 2nd, 2008

Merriam is her maiden name! Congrats to them I LOVE the name.

- Allie on July 2nd, 2008

I believe, according to the Cribs Tony Hawk episode, her name is pronounced Loht-see. I think both names are very unique and pretty.

- Savvy on July 2nd, 2008

Kadence Hawk is a cool name. Congrats

- jasmine on July 2nd, 2008

Wow. How Outstanding! Really Excting!

- surfgirlca on July 6th, 2008

- Elyse on July 6th, 2008

Was there a complication that Lhotse was hospitalised for over a week?

What do you mean? This is a post from last week, so she had the baby mon june 30 and was released july 3. just sounds like she needed a csection to me…….

- Erica on July 8th, 2008

@erica: you’re right. I was thinking this Th instead of last Th.

- i think on July 8th, 2008

Is there a reason this is still on the hot posts list two and a half weeks later? There have been waaaay more than six hot posts since then, meaning this one should have been pushed off the list like a week ago or more.
