Congrats to Ethan and Ryan!wow so that picture was taken thursday meaning a day before she gave birth, and she looked good! Im not really a fan of the name Clementine but guess what thats why my kids names are Madison and Ryan! She may not like my kids names it doesnot matter as long as i like it! Also congrats to big brother and sister Maya and Levon … What a busy year their mom is getting married and stepmom just had a baby!

Thanks Tink and Jessica!
- Lisa on
congrats to them.
I am a little confused though, if she was born last Friday why were there reports that she checked into the hospital this morning to give birth?
- Mia on
From what we understand, the Star Magazine report was wrong and they were actually checking OUT this morning, rather than in.
- Sarah, Staff Editor on
Congrats to them! I actually really love the name Clementine.
- k on
Congratulations!
I love the name Clementine, but am not so fond of Jane (always reminds me of Jane Doe). Well, to each his or her own. I am happy for them.
- lilith on
Love the name Clementine. Like the name Jane. But, Clementine Jane Hawke doesn’t “flow” well, but I’m not hating it. Congrats on the new baby girl.
- SouthernBelle on
Clementine? wow ive gotta say its not the kind of style name think is cute but if thats what they want…
- Kelly on
Hooray! I was hoping a celebrity baby would be born on birthday! Welcome to the world little Clementine!
P.S. I love the name too! Very original. As far as I know there aren’t many Clementines. It is nice to have a name that is original (but not over the top) and to stand out a little bit.
- Elyse on
I love the name Clementine! Congrats to them
- Rowan on
Congrats – but don’t like the name at all…not that it matters to them! Each to their own…
- Lisa on
Well let’s hope she hires an elderly, unattractive nanny.
- Astrid24 on
Well that seemed like a short pregnancy!! And Gwen Stefani I feel like has been pregnat forever!!
Congrats. Although I am not fond of the name but love the fruit, I guess it’s kinda cute – oh wow I’m a poet lol
- JM on
Love the name. Congrats to them!
- Bb on
Congratulations to the happy parents. She stayed in really great shape throughout the pregnancy – good for her!
Astrid24 – ROFL and so true!
- martina on
I love love love the name. Too bad my husband isn’t as into creative names as I am :-p
- MB on
Love the name…almost gave that one to my daughter. It is special and sweet at the same time.
- therese on
LMAO astrid! I couldn’t agree more!
- Kim on
No fair! I wanted to name my child Clementine. I love the name. I always start liking a name a little less if i know of anyone who has that name.
- Liv on
Aw, congrats to them! I love the name. Clementine is so feminine and old-fashioned. I love it!
- Stephany on
Martina, Ryan did stay in great shape ’til the bitter end, didn’t she? Clementine Jane is not my cup of tea, but it is a very classic-sounding and sweet name. Congrats to the couple.
- Erica on
I love the name! It’s really grown on me since seeing Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.
Congrats to them! And I agree with a previous poster, Ryan’s pregnancy has seemed so short to me while Gwen Stefani’s has seemed like forever!
- Gina on
beautiful name but i cannot wait until Gwen gives birth. ARagh, it’s killing me. I deeply hope she has a girl lol
- Silvermouse on
I meant to say, since I found out Claudia Schiffer has a daughter named Clementine (I think she does, anyway), but my brain and my fingers didn’t cooperate!
- Ratty on
The name Clementine reminds me of the character off the kids show Caillou (do they get that in the US)? As for Jane, my second daughter’s full name is Eliana Eva Jane so obviously I like it!
- Shawna on
Cybill Shepherd has a daughter named Clementine also.
- legemc on
Well congrats to the couple! The name they chose is a lil old fashion, but cute none the less.
I first saw Ethan Hawke when I was kid in the movie EXPLORERS. I loved that movie.
- Tonya on
Clementine??? I wonder how many times she’ll be asked if her shoes are number nine? 
I bet she gets tired of that song by the time she’s a teenager. “OH My Darling, Clementine” is a MAJORLY depressing song.
- Caren on
To Ratty:
Correct, her daughter’s name is Clementine de Vere Drummond, I think!!!
- Caroline on
I pray for Ethan and his new wife/child. Glad to see the birth wasn’t played up @ all.
- Mil on
I like it. It’s different but not ridiculous.
- Elizabeth on
When did they marry? The name’ll probably grow on me, but I do love Jane.
- Leslie on
No!!!!!!!!!!! That was going to be what I named my next daughter! I can’t believe they took it! Now if I use it, it’s going to seem like I’m copying celebrity names =(
- Noelle on
i LOVE the name!!
at least they didn’t name her “Talula Does the Hula From Hawaii”
its a real name: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/asia-pacific/7522952.stm
