Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck Welcome Second Daughter

Wow two girls! Congrats

- dee on January 6th, 2009

FINALLY! I’ve been waiting, I had a feeling it would be a girl, girl’s can wear blue too, and have “boy” things. Too much gender stereotyping now and days.

- BEJJ on January 6th, 2009

yay!!!!!! congrats,they are gonna be very proud parents! xxx

- Lou on January 6th, 2009

Congratulations to them! I was thinking a girl, I could just see them with a second daughter and I’m super happy because Violet is too cute. Also, since he’s such good friends with the Damon’s now Gia and this new baby can be playmates!

Now I’m wondering about her name….

- Natasha on January 6th, 2009

Also about the petit tresor thing, they could have easily been buying for a friend!

- Natasha on January 6th, 2009

Oh yay! I was hoping they’d have a boy but I figured they’d have a girl just b/c everyone was guessing boy, haha. I wonder if they will name this little girl after a family member…Violet is after Jen’s grandmother, right? Maybe this little girl will have dark hair like Ben….that’d be so cute! Congrats to the family!

- MZ on January 6th, 2009

I knew it! Now all those thinking boy can give me a dime

- stephanie on January 6th, 2009

Aww, that’s fabulous news Another little Violet I was sure it would be a boy though, a lovely surprise! I can’t wait to hear her name. I think it will be…Grace Elizabeth. No idea why, just a feeling it;ll be something like that.

- Grace on January 6th, 2009

I can’t wait to hear her name! Congratulations on another beautiful little girl Ben and Jen!!!

- Mina on January 6th, 2009

Congrats to the family! I was sure she was going to have a boy.

- Mary on January 6th, 2009

Aww…I’m so happy for them! I’m sure this baby girl will be just as beautiful and happy as Violet. Such a wonderful family…

- Sarah on January 6th, 2009

Yay! I’ve been religiously checking CBB for this news.

I thought it would be a boy, but I’m wrong 75% of the time.

I’m wondering if they will go with another flower inspired name. Lilly? Daisy? Rose?

Violet is such a cuite and I’m sure the new baby will be just as gorgeous.

- charity on January 6th, 2009

Yay! I’ve been checking this website like every half hour for the past couple of weeks…LOL. Being a stay at home wife, I need something to keep me busy!

I was right about her having the baby in the later half of the first week of January! Congrats to the Garner-Afflecks. She’s going to be adorable, just like big sis Violet!

- Devon on January 6th, 2009

Wow. I really thought it was a boy!! Oh well, I bet baby girl #2 is just as adorable I wonder what the name is. Congrats to them

- Mia on January 6th, 2009

Congrats to the whole family!! I also can’t wait to hear what they will name her.

- Kristen on January 6th, 2009

Our daughters are the same age and I’m due this week with our second as well, I’m having a boy and was hoping she’d have one too! I can’t wait to hear the name! Hope they don’t make us wait long!

- Emaline on January 6th, 2009

Congrats to the Garner-Affleck’s.

I’ve been waiting for this particular celebrity birth for a couple of weeks now. Another girl, how exciting for them. I can’t wait to hear the name of the new addition and no doubt she will be just as adorable as Violet.

In all seriousness, Congrats to the family! Two is a wonderful handful.

I love the “psychics who knew she was going to deliver soon and just knew she was having a boy. Kudos to you.

- PJ on January 6th, 2009

Another girl! i was hoping for a boy but im sure the little girl will be really cute! i can’t wait to hear the name and see the first picture! i wonder who she will look like!?!!?

- laura on January 6th, 2009

Congratulations. I have never seen a celebrity child who looks as happy and well-adjusted as Violet does in every photo. I have two girls, and they are now in their 40′s. They have been best friends since they were toddlers. I’m sure you will raise your girls to be kind to each other just as I did. I wish you the best!

- Marilyn on January 6th, 2009

Awww yay! Another little girl!!!!

I can’t wait to hear her name!

Congrats! And congrats to big sister Violet!

- Mandy on January 6th, 2009

Wow, I genuinely thought they would have a boy, but I’m delighted for them! I’m sure she is as beautiful as Violet. Can’t wait to hear the name!

- Milla on January 6th, 2009

Wow, it’s been a good week for baby girls (since Rebecca and Jerry just had their twin girls). Congratulations to Jennifer, Ben, and Violet! Maybe Patricia will be incorporated into her name since Jennifer is close to her mom Pat.

- Allison on January 6th, 2009

congratulations Ben and Jennifer and Violet…what a great family….enjoy that new little baby….

- Carole on January 6th, 2009

Wow that pregnancy went by fast!! I wasn’t expecting this announcement for a few more weeks! I didn’t know what it was one way or another but secretly wanted a baby Ben!! But Violet’s so cute so why not another!! Can’t wait to hear the name!

- JM on January 6th, 2009

I have been checking this site religiously for the past month waiting for this news!
I have twins due in January, and was positive that they would arrive around Rebecca and Jerry O’Connell’s. But it seems that they will (hopefully!) come closer to the new Affleck baby!
Can’t wait to hear the name! I love Lily (one strong potential for one of my twins) and also Grace. Both go well with Violet. Hopefully they stick to something classy and nice, and don’t get sucked into the celebrity trend of “unique” names!
Congrads to Ben, Jen, and Violet!

- Jazz on January 6th, 2009

So exciting!

Congrats to Ben and Jen!

I admit, I was expecting a boy, but I’m sure this new little girl will be just as adorable and well-taken care for as Violet is!

Now Ben has two little girls just like his BFF Matt! (even though technically, Matt has three daughters ,counting his step-daughter)

- Lola on January 6th, 2009

I also love how they said Jennifer AND Ben gave birth. Haha

I bet Jen would word it a bit differently.

- Mandy on January 6th, 2009

Girls are the best. Glad you have two of them. Every girl needs a sister. Violet is the cutest celeb. baby by far. No one else’s comes close. What a happy face she has in every photo. Can’t wait to see her lil’ sis.
Congratulations to the proud parents.

- Susan on January 6th, 2009

Congrats!

- Christen on January 6th, 2009

Yay! Congrats to the family!
MulberryLane–I was amused at the way they worded the announcement, too, as if Ben physically pushed the baby out!

- Michelle on January 6th, 2009

I’ve been nothing but in awe about this couple. So glad they have been “out of the spotlight” as much as they can be. They’ve made there lives as ‘normal’ as possible and still given ‘US’ a chance at seeing how nice things can be with marriage and a family can be in Hollywood … My Congratulations to you both and on the new baby girl. Violet will be delighted in a new baby sister – I am a 60′s MOM with no grandchildren and I would be delighted to call you both my “kids” with how you’ve handled your life and love for family … Good Luck with all you do.
Carrie Lunder from Mentor, Ohio….

- Carrie Lunder on January 6th, 2009

Can’t wait to hear her name.

Congrats from some fans up in the Yukon!

- Kerri Ann Scholz on January 6th, 2009

Congrats to Ben, Jen, and Violet.

I think another “flower” name would be cute, like Daisy, Rose, or Lily. It is very nice that Violet has a baby sister, even though I was hoping they would have a boy for Ben. All that really matters is that Baby Affleck is healthy!

- Catharynne on January 6th, 2009

Yea!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, My son’s birthday is today though he is 5. My daughter was born 2 day’s before Violet on Nov 29,05. How cool is that.

Congrats Jen and Ben from a fellow Denisonian! As one of three girls I say it is wonderful that the girls will have each other to grow up with- sisterhood is a wonderful thing! Violet is just the best name and if I remember right it was a family name- can’t wait to hear the name of baby sister- I’m sure it will be equally as great and meaningful. Much love to you all!

- Sene on January 6th, 2009

Congratulations! May God bless your family. Can’t wait to hear her name..

Like so many others, I was thinking it would be a boy! I’m so happy for them – I bet Violet’s excited to be a big sister! If this kid is half as precious as Vi, they’re going to be giving their daddy strokes when it comes time to date.

Can’t wait to hear her name, too – I love Violet’s name so much! I wonder if she’ll have a lovely old-fashioned Southern name too.

Oh, I can’t WAIT for news and pictures and everything…I’m so crazy about Jen and Vi, you just can’t help but smile when you see pictures of them together.

Wow congrats to all of you!! Ben and Jen are the BEST Hollywood parents I have ever seen and ever should take notice from them and follow their lead!! I love seeing pics of you with Violet and now I can’t wait to see the next little one!!

- Theresa on January 6th, 2009

SO EXCITED FOR THEM!! Can’t wait to hear the name.

Think the wording of the announcement is a little weird, as I’m pretty sure it was probably just Jen who actually gave birth to the baby.

Welcome, little girl!

- Caroline on January 6th, 2009

Many, many heartfelt good wishes for the new baby, Violet, and Mom and Dad!

- Amanda on January 6th, 2009

It is so obvious to see that my favorite celebrity mom is the favorite of so many!

Congratulations Ben, Jen and big sister Violet!

- Karm on January 6th, 2009

Well done Jen and Ben! Many congrats to ya all…:)
You’re gonna have to try for that boy now! ))

- Pink Parasol on January 6th, 2009

congratulations, another baby girl. They are so cute and can wrap Daddy right around their little fingers, which is great to watch. We are waiting to hear what you have named her.

- Sherry Crawford on January 6th, 2009

Wow, I bet she is as beautiful as Violet!
Congrats!!

- Julie on January 6th, 2009

i’m so happy for them, i bet she will be just as cute as violet and this baby is born on the same day as my sister too.

- Vanessa on January 6th, 2009

Sweet. I wonder if she got the dimples too? Violet seems like such a happy child, I’m sure the new baby Affleck will be a big ball of sunshine like her big sister.

- dee on January 6th, 2009

She picked a great day to be born, of course I might be a bit bias being that it is my birthday as well!!! I can’t wait to hear what her name is!!

- Karen on January 6th, 2009

Aww how cute, although I was hoping for a mini ben lol I’m curious if this baby will look like jen just like violet does, or take after her daddy more. I would like to see the baby resemble ben, because violet is a clone of Jennifer and I bet this one will have darker hair. As for the name, something normal and traditional i’m sure.

- gianna on January 6th, 2009

Congratulations, and God bless your family richly.

- Faith on January 7th, 2009

Aww! I’m so excited for them! I was pretty sure it was going to be a boy, but I’m so happy for them! I can’t wait to find out the name. I’m sure she’s a cutie pie, just like Violet.

- Brooklyn on January 7th, 2009

Of all the celebrity families out there, this one is my personal favourite. They are a delight to read about, Violet always looks so happy and Ben & Jen always look thrilled to bits by her! No doubt it will be the same with this baby! Congratulations to all 3 on the arrival of a healthy daughter/sister!!!

- KV on January 7th, 2009

Congratulations! I hope both Jen and the new baby are in good health. Cheers!

- Moca on January 7th, 2009

Congratulations Jen, Ben and Violet.

Children are one of the world’s miracles and I know that you will bless this new daughter with as much love and patience as we have watched you give to Violet. May your new daughter be healthy now and forevermore.

- Teresa G. on January 7th, 2009

In the grand tradition of the Garners, another girl has joined our family. I can’t wait to hear all about her! Best wishes to both Jen and Ben, and of course to big sister Violet!!

- Katie on January 7th, 2009

aww thats great news I thought they were having a boy but I bet Violet will love having a little sister to play with. I cant wait to find out what they name her.

- charlie on January 7th, 2009

I thought it might be a girl. I thought there might be news this morning. Our new nephew arrived yesterday too!

- Ls on January 7th, 2009

Congrats to Ben, Jennifer and Violet. January is the best month to be born in.. Ha, ha. That’s the month of my birth, too (Jan. 18) I also have 2 daughters; now grown. They are the best of friends, which warms my heart. I bet that will be the same for Violet and her little sister.. Babies are blessings… I also have 2 sons, 10 years apart…

- Judith on January 7th, 2009

Ben and Jen are not the typical Hollywood couple. Both of them are pretty regular folk in their personal life. Congratulations first of all to this outstanding couple on being role models for Hollywood. And of course, congrats on the new baby girl. Now it’s Ben and his Harum. Lucky guy!!

- flimbert on January 7th, 2009

Wow, congratulations to Ben, Jen and Violet! The first celeb baby of ’09! I can’t wait to find out her name. I have a feeling that her middle name will be Grace. Maybe Lucy Grace or Mia Grace?
Anyway, congrats to the Garner-Affleck family!

- Charlie on January 7th, 2009

This is my favorite celebrity family and Violet is absolutely beautiful. I’m sure their new baby girl will be just as beautiful…I can’t wait to see her and find out what her name is. Congrats Ben, Jen, and Violet!!!!

- Cheyane on January 7th, 2009

Aww congrats to them all – although I thought it’s a boy! Jennifer was so huge – I had the general experience that you get huger with boys But Violet will be happy about her little sister I guess. And in the tradition of best friends with Matt Damon a girl is just right

- Dasha on January 7th, 2009

Congrats to Ben, Jen and Violet! They are such a lovely and cute family. I can’t wait to hear what their new daughters name will be.

- Lilz on January 7th, 2009

YAYYYY! I was hoping they’d have another girl! I was actually just wondering last night if Baby Affleck would be the first celeb baby born in 2009….and she was! Also, just before I made my daily visit to CBB today, I got a vibe that I would find news about Baby Affleck being born…and sure enough!

Anyway, I’ll bet Violet’s going to be a great big sister! All throughout Jen’s pregnancy, I could just picture Vi with a baby sister!

- Kelly on January 7th, 2009

Yayyy!!!!! Congratulations to the proud parents Jennifer and Ben, and to the big sister, Violet

I seriously love this celebrity family who seem to live low key and live (or try to!!!) somewhat of a traditional life. (Jennifer picking up and dropping violet off at preschool…going to the market…) They don’t have a billion people working for them as their servants.

Congratulations to the Affleck family!!!! CAn’t wait to hear the baby girl’s name now

- Carri on January 7th, 2009

Another cute little girl! Ben needs little girls to spoil.

And on a side note, I knew the girls would have to win out eventually. Nearly everyone I know has had or is having a boy, myself included, so I knew sometime soon the girls would have to stop popping up all over the place.

- Hannah on January 7th, 2009

congrats on your second baby, it is a blessing. Violet will be a great big sister

My husband and I just found out we are expecting a baby in September and I just hope we can both be as wonderful and doting parents as the both of you. Wishing you all the best! Violet is going to love being a big sister! Congratulations again to you and your family. Jennifer from New York, NY

Ben and Jennifer,
Congratulations on the birth of your new daughter!! It is wonderful to see such great parents. Violet always looks like such a happy child and she is so beautiful. She must be very excited to be a big sister. It must be difficult being in the public eye all the time, but you two seem to be handling it very well and keeping both feet on the ground. Again, I say Congratulations and God Bless You and your little family,
Risa

- Risa on January 7th, 2009

- Sue on January 7th, 2009

Jennifer & Ben,

Congratulations on the newest addition to your beautiful family. You have always set such a wonderful example for parents today. It’s got to be hard always being under a microscope but you handle it well “chill out a minute” – great response. Congrats on being your own family and not needing others to help – yes, it can be done.

Our daughter and son-in-law are expecting their 2nd child in mid-April and we are thrilled. We have a 7 year old grandson and we know he will be a terrific big brother and he’s excited about teaching his baby sister how to play soccer.

Bless the Affleck family and looking forward to hearing the name of the little one.

- Kay in Texas on January 7th, 2009

Congratulations Jen, Ben and Violet! There is nothing like a sister! I have a sister and now have 2 girls of my own. They are also 3 years apart! (4 and 7) Violet will have a best friend for life. I am so happy for you. You have a beautiful family and I wish you the best.

- Jodi on January 7th, 2009

Wow, and I was just talking about when she’d be due to have the baby with a friend. I was thinking it’d be cute to see a boy, but I could see Jen and Ben having another girl like big sis Violet. Congrats to them! Can’t wait to hear more details, maybe even a name…

- FC on January 7th, 2009

Congratulations! What a great addition to your already wonderful family. Take care…

- Jamie on January 7th, 2009

Congratulations! Jen appears to be a very down to earth and grounded person. In a world that can often lead people to lose their concept of reality, Garner puts her family first. Congrats to Ben and Jen on their newest addition, and to that adorable little girl they have already for becoming a big sister! Name yet?

- Trish on January 7th, 2009

- phoebe on January 7th, 2009

Yay,I thought they’d have another girl. Can’t wait to hear the name; I like the name Violet so I bet I’ll like her sisters name. I think its cute that both Matt and Ben have houses full of girls. And now Ben’s mom has 2 granddaughters and 2 grandsons!

- Heather on January 7th, 2009

Congratulations Jennifer and Ben!! What a wonderful Blessing for you and Violet! I grew up with 2 sisters, who are much older than me but, my Dad never regretted having 3 girls. He always said girls smell better and they are better for hugs and kisses. We grew up on a farm and worked just like any son would have and did the fun stuff with Dad like fishing and hunting. But, we were very girly too!! You both are the most “down to earth” people in the spotlight that I can think of and that is AWESOME! My favorites! Love and best wishes for you and your beautiful family!

- Shannon on January 7th, 2009

Congratulations Ben, Jen, and Violet!

Congrats to the family. I am happy Violet has a little sister. The bond between sisters can be so special. I think a good name would be Juliet Christine or Willow.

- Alison on January 7th, 2009

Congratulations to Ben and Jen, Violet and the sweet new baby girl! When I got two new kitties last year I named one Violet Anne (the Anne is after my own sister believe it or not) and the second kitty became Lily Grace, soooo here’s hoping the new baby is Lily Grace. The chances of that happening are nil, I know, but what the hey.

- Alice on January 7th, 2009

Congratulations to the Afflecks!! This new little girl is going to be welcomed into one of the best ‘Hollywood’ families there has been in a long time. You can just see the love in either Ben’s or Jen’s eyes when you see a picture of them with Violet. Can’t wait to find out her name!!!!

- Jill on January 7th, 2009

Congratulations on the newest addition to your family. Little girls are a blessing. I know, I have three, even though they are no longer little girls, (23, 19, 14) they are a joy. And now that their father has passed at such a young age, (47) I still see him in little things that they do. So enjoy you little ones while you can, for they grow up so fast.

- Lucile on January 7th, 2009

CONGRATS ONCE AGAIN ON YOUR NEW ARRIVAL. CALALILY AFFLECK WOULD BE A GREAT NAME. CALL HER LILY. IT GOES GREAT WITH VIOLET.

- DONNA on January 7th, 2009

It’s been 3 years so my memory is kind of bad. How did we get the first glimpses of Violet? Did they release photos or did the paparazzi just snap some photos?

I can’t remember but I don’t think their was a magazine spread or anything… hmmm.

Anyone that can help?

- Mandy on January 7th, 2009

Congrats my family loves you both.

- La Shawn Gross on January 7th, 2009

Congrats to them. I’m sure she’ll be as awesome as Violet.

- Splum on January 7th, 2009

WOW CONGRATULATIONS JENNIFER & BEN, and CONGRATS TO VIOLET on becoming a “big sister”!!! Although I’m sure everyone will find out eventually, now I’m curious what their new baby’s name is?!? Much happiness and joy to all of you!!!

- Rosanne Catalano on January 7th, 2009

YAY! Congrats Ben and Jen! I thought it was going to be a boy, but I was hoping for a girl. I think they’re the best parents in Hollywood and I can’t wait to see how beautiful this new little girl is going to be (and hear what the name is…) Congrats congrats congrats!!

- Sera on January 7th, 2009

Matt and Ben have more in common than being best friends. Their daughters can grow up together with great parents. Congrats on your new pink bundle.

- Jai on January 7th, 2009

I think that you and Ben are two of the most intellegent, down to earth, graceful folks in the public eye, have always enjoyed your acting, and your good hearted personalities, very refreshing in the midst of today’s low ethics atmostphere of celebrities. Many congratulations on your blessed baby boy, Terri in Colorado

- Terri Rayburn on January 7th, 2009

Congrats Mr. and Mrs. A and little Violet. Looks the you and the Damons have the market on sweet little ladies and the dads can compare notes on raising and monitoring when that all important dating time comes somewhere down the road. Enjoy her as they grow up to fast ( I’m sure you knoe what I mean because of Violet). Take care and my best wishes to you all now and in the future.

- Joyce Keith on January 7th, 2009

Congratulations from a fellow DENISONIAN!
Jenna ’95

- JennaA on January 7th, 2009

Congrats to Ben, Jen, and Violet! I’m sure their newest addition is just as much of a delight as her big sister.

I can’t wait to hear her name. I don’t think they’ll choose another flower name but it’ll definitely be simple and classic.

- Lily on January 7th, 2009

Congrats Ben and Jen!
I’ve been anxious to see when the baby was born and very happy for you both that it’s another girl. Violet is adorable and I can’t imagine a baby girl any cuter than she is…and always smiling.

Can’t wait to find out details and pictures!

- Amanda on January 7th, 2009

WHEN ARE WE GONNA HEAR HER NAME???!!!! AHHHH!!!

C’MON CBB, WE’RE COUNTING ON YOU!!!! J/K

- Lis on January 7th, 2009

congratulations to the Affleck’s. I wish you all the blessings in the world. God Bless

- yolissa maglero on January 7th, 2009

Mandy, if I recall correctly, they first pics of Violet were papparazi shots of her in her carrier being put into a car.

- Alice on January 7th, 2009

YAY – another girl!! Wonder what her name is…probably something cute & different like Violet. Congrats Ben & Jen! I’m sure she’s a beauty like her big sis!

- Jill on January 7th, 2009

Congratulation,welcome to the world sweet little girl!

- LadyKitty on January 7th, 2009

Congrats!! I can’t wait to see pictures of the new bundle of joy! I bet she’ll have those same mommy dimples as Violet has – what precious little gifts you have in your life… treasure them always!!

- Crystal G on January 7th, 2009

Thanks Alice. I just couldn’t remember.

- Mandy on January 7th, 2009

YAAAAAY I was checking this website 10 times a day and now the little one is finally born!!! Congratulations to the happy family. Now, I guess I’m still going to check here very often because I can’t wait to hear the little girls’ name!!!!
I think we won’t get to see her in the next few months just like with Violet, but I totally understand that. I wish the press would lay low for a while and let them have some time for each other.
Anyway, I wish them all the luck in the world. How precious will that be? Violet cuddling and playing (in a while) with her little sister. She will be a great big sis!!!

- Nika on January 7th, 2009

I was really thinking a boy, lol…but how exciting for Ben and Jen to have two beautiful little girls. Can’t wait to find out what they named this one.

- CTBmom on January 7th, 2009

Congrat’s to all three,Ben,Jen,and Big Sister Violet.

Name ideas: Love the name Pearl,and Lilly
Best wishes

- Brenda on January 7th, 2009

Congrats Jennifer and Ben! Two girls, how exciting!! I wish yall the best

- Emily on January 7th, 2009

I think they make a great couple, along with being excellent parents to violet, having another one just makes it even better. Contratulations!!!!!!!

- Reta on January 7th, 2009

Totally agree, Lis!!!! We need a name!

- bungalowbliss on January 7th, 2009

Finally! It seems like we’ve been waiting a lifetime for
this news about Ben and Jen’s new bundle of joy. I’m so
happy for this sweet and beautiful family. Congrats to
Ben,Jennifer,and little Violet on the new arrival and I

AWWW! Congrats to them, another little girl! YAY!

- Jasmine C. on January 7th, 2009

Much Luck on your new little miracle.

- Lynn Gallagher on January 7th, 2009

Congrats again Jen and Ben on the your new baby girl. Don’t think I’m not grateful but I am still waiting for that little boy. What the heck, maybe two little boys to level the playing field. Anyway, I am counting on it. I’ll give you a little time, but don’t make me wait too long. lol Love you guys. Give Violet a big kiss for me and let us know the baby’s name soon. OK?

- Rosy J on January 7th, 2009

What wonderful news! All best wishes to your family!

- Suzanne on January 7th, 2009

Congratulations!! Welcome baby Affleck

- Sof & LaLa on January 7th, 2009

Congratulations Ben and Jen!!!
I’m a huge fan of Jen and i’m so glad to see her happy and content with her family. I’m sure the new baby girl will be as adorable as Violet!
More love, good health, and happiness to the Afflecks!!!:)

- sydney on January 7th, 2009

Jennifer and Ben,

Congrats! I have been reading about your pregnancy through People and I think its wonderful that you have another girl! Best of Luck for both of you, Violet, and the new little one!

- Tina on January 7th, 2009

Please pick a normal name!
my all time favorite girls names are Tiffany, Melanie, and Natalie.
other suggestions: Sydney, Ella, Emma, Isabella, Taylor, Sophia

- kayla in nj on January 7th, 2009

Wow, congratulations, I’m really happy for both of you and Violet.

- Mary on January 7th, 2009

Finally congrats to the family!! I was for sure thinking boy but it’s nice to have another mini Violet! I’m sure she’ll be georgeous. Can’t wait to see pics

- Kelly on January 7th, 2009

Ahhhhh…I am tired of checking this site 800 times a day to hear the baby name! LOL

- HeatherR on January 7th, 2009

Not sure why they withhold the name

I think they’ll pick one of these:

Lily
Marigold
Maggie
Sierra
Ava
Emma
Elizabeth
Quinn

Those names just sound like “them”.

People will know one day so why don’t they just tell us now :(

- Madison on January 7th, 2009

My neighbour knows Ben’s parents and I heard they named her:

AVA ELIZABETH

cuuuuuuuuuuuute

- Jenna on January 7th, 2009

Yahhhhh!! Congrats on the lil one!! Look at all of these comments, WOW!! We sure must love this couple! Hope they have a boy eventually–that is if they want more than 2 kids!

- Doreen on January 7th, 2009

I just heard this on another site and almost spit my water out laughing……

Her name is Tulip Daffodil Gardenia Affleck. She weighs in at 5 bulbs!

Very creative …..

I love Violet’s name, and I can’t wait to hear what they named their new little angel…

Jeanie

- Jeanie on January 7th, 2009

Congrats!!! I guessed they were having a girl, I don´t kow why but I never pictured them with a boy hehe.

What about the name? Hope we don´t have to wait too long like we did with Nell (Helena Bonham Carter´s girl).

God, please, do not allow it.

- angie on January 7th, 2009

Congratulations on this wonderful gift from God! May all your days feel as blessed as the day your baby girl was born!

- Yve on January 7th, 2009

perez is reporting that the babys name is ava

- Kim and Jo-hanne on January 7th, 2009

Ava?! Love it!

- Mel on January 7th, 2009

Both Heather Locklear and Reese Witherspoon have daughter’s named Ava Elizabeth. I can’t imagine that Ben and Jen would use such a common “celebrity” baby name. It is a cute name though…

- HeatherR on January 7th, 2009

If I could name this child I’d call her Amelia Rose. I think it goes perfect with Violet Anne.:)
I honestly think the name will be nice.

- Vivi on January 7th, 2009

#332 – I looked on Perez and they are not reporting that at all. No one knows the name yet. Ava does not go well with Violet. Violet is a classic name and Ava is too trendy.

- Shawna on January 7th, 2009

Shawna,

How do names go “well” together lol?? It think Violet Anne and Ava Elizabeth are great together and see how they could have picked that. The middle names are both “Victorian”.

Plus, Ava is a classic name. Ava Gabor, Ava Gardner, Ava Readdy. It’s very classic, just becoming “popular” again now.

- Mel on January 7th, 2009

Congratulations to the Affleck family on baby girl #2! I hope big sis is ready for helping out Mommy and Daddy. 3 years apart is perfect! My oldest is 3 years older than her bro and he’s 3 years older than our youngest. It really is the perfect spacing between children. Congrats again and whatever name she ends up with I’m sure will be beautiful and fitting of her little personality. God Bless!

- Doria on January 7th, 2009

#338 – regardless of whether it’s a nice name, it is not the name. At least as far as anyone knows. It seems that a previous poster made this up because if you look on Perez they are NOT reporting this name.

- Shawna on January 7th, 2009

I’m back on here and what no name annoucement????
I’m sure we won’t have to wait too long but 24 hours feels like an age already!!!!
I think they would pick a name they love rather than a name that goes with Violet (or maybe they will ask their eldest to choose who knows?)

What about a Charlotte or Georgia? Something very sweet and ‘normal’ I would imagine. We all know this family is VERY down-to-earth and I think setting a name trend is the last thing on their mind.

Come on Jen & Ben…..please annouce your baby’s name We’re going mad here!!!

- Kelpy on January 7th, 2009

Not everyone cares about names “going together” as the fad is pushing on us.

- emily on January 7th, 2009

A little girl! I am partial as I have two little girls myself but I love it. I get the mother-daughter relationship and I get to foster my daughters’ relationship as sisters which is an amazing relationship in itself. I couldn’t wish for more, though I do hope baby #3 is a boy I wouldn’t change having two girls first for anything

- Amanda on January 7th, 2009

#342 – I don’t mean “going together” as matching or something. How in the world is that a fad? Example – my children’s names are Elijah, Olivia and Eliana. They “fit” together if you know what I mean. Now if I had named the first two Elijah, Olivia and then name the third Diamond or something it wouldn’t “fit” together, it would be an odd jump. That is what I mean by fit together. People usually like a “type” of name and usually will stick to that type in naming their children. Ava, to me, does not seem like a name they would choose because they like names like Violet and those two are not the same type of name at all. I would expect mot a name like Eleanor or something with Violet, not Ava. And again – NO ONE is reporting that the name is Ava except a previous poster.

- Shawna on January 7th, 2009

shawna
why do siblings names have to go together? just curious
my siblings go like this(im Kayla) the only thing i can think of by what you mean is all of my siblings along with me all have pretty common names?
1. Michael(Mike) John
2. Rebecca(Becca) Lynne
2. Nicholas(Nick) Tyler
4. Kayla Anne
5. Brittany Grace
5. Matthew(Matt) Paul
7. Kyle Steven

yes, i have a big family!

- kayla in nj on January 7th, 2009

Kayla – Those names DO go together. Now if one of your siblings was named January Star that would not have fit. I don’t know how to explain it any better than that.

- Shawna on January 7th, 2009

well thats what i thought you meant..i said that

- kayla in nj on January 7th, 2009

Congrats to a beautiful couple with a beautiful family. Babies are a blessings enjoy them while they are so little! Can’t wait to hear her name! Love and best wishes to you guys!

Dee

- Dee on January 7th, 2009

Wow, I guess the only thing harder than waiting for the birth is waiting for the name. I predict they will release the name tomorrow (seeing that they are a higher-profile couple who knows their fans are waiting anxiously), and the name will be a classic girlie name (nothing trendy) combined with a family name from either side. Violet was a Garner family name, possibly Anne as well.

- Stella on January 7th, 2009

congrats guys. i always see pics of the family and always look so happy. glad you were blesses to add to the bunch.

- dawn on January 7th, 2009

Maybe they’ll go with another “color” name instead of the flower name: Scarlet, perhaps?

- Rachel on January 7th, 2009

I seriously doubt that it’s Ava, for the same reason Shawna mentioned. The names don’t work together at all. Violet is so stately and regal and wasn’t very common when Ben and Jen named their first daughter. Ava is very, very trendy right now, and honestly becoming a a bit downmarket. Ava and Madison? Sure. Ava and Violet? No way.

- Candice on January 7th, 2009

Yay! Congrats Ben & Jen!! Finally! Violet has another sis!!

- emi xxx on January 7th, 2009

CONGRATUALATIONS, TO THE AFLEK FAMILY!!!
THY ARE THE AMERICAN FAMILY
LOV E AND CHERISH THE TIME WITH YOUR CHILDREN BECAUSE THEY GROW MIGHT Y FAST.
CONGRATS AGAIN !!!! HOW ABOUT TRYING FOR A BOY NOW (lol)
HUGS AND SMOOCHES
TO YOU ALL
GOD BLESS!!!!

- dawn on January 7th, 2009

Shawna, I totally agree about names going together or flowing together in a family. I have a large family, and most of our names flow well, except one sibling has a completely different/out there name. It does suit her very well, but it is quite different from the rest of the names. On the other hand, three of the names are pretty similar and those three often get called by the wrong name! I guess creating a good fit with names in a large family can be challenging. Anyway, I’m sure whatever name Jen and Ben pick will be beautiful. And I’m sure the new baby will be as cute as sweet lil’ Violet! Congratulations Garner-Affleck family!

- Jen on January 7th, 2009

congrats to proud parents jennifer, ben, and big sister violet!
im sure she’s adorable, and cant wait to hear her name!

- Sonya on January 7th, 2009

Dear Ben and Jen, And Violet..Congradudiliations on the baby I am so thrilled and over the moon for all of you. You are all what makes waking up in the morning and greet the day with sunshine and a smile..God Bless and good luck..Love Lynnsky

- lynnsky101 on January 7th, 2009

Blessings to you, Jennifer, Ben, Violet and sweet new baby girl!

- Terri on January 7th, 2009

Congrats to Jennifer and Ben!!! You both are great parents to Violet and i’m sure it will be the same for your new darling baby girl. Keep up the good work!

- Tricia Ryks on January 7th, 2009

Stella I see what you’re saying. I was thinking you were of the group of people who read books to find names that go with siblings’ names, or look on baby name websites that will tell you good names that go with that name (not as in middle name, mind you, but as a sibling name). I think that’s silly to care so much about if your kids’ names sound well together. I see what you mean about their choice with the first being indicative of their choice for the second.

I agree, I’m wanting to know the name they chose, and wish it was released with the birth announcement!

- emily on January 7th, 2009

Congrats on the new baby girl!

Amid the madness of Hollyood you manage to stay healthy and normal. Good job and good luck!

- Ana Antholzner on January 7th, 2009

Congrats to them! I was checking every day! I had a feeling it was going to be another girl – I’m sure she will be adorable like Violet. Now I can’t wait to hear the name

- Sara on January 7th, 2009

CONGRATULATIONS TO JEN, BEN AND VIOLET!!!!! CAN’T WAIT TO HEAR HER NAME, I’M SO GLAD ALL ARE DOING WELL!! CONGRATS!!

- Chrissy on January 7th, 2009

AWW!!!! I’m soooooo excited for them!! My favorite Actress of all time had her 2nd baby!! So cool!! And I bet Violet is excited! Shes soooo adorable!!

- Kaci on January 7th, 2009

I thought once the Garner-Affleck bundle of joy arrived, I’d have no reason to compulsively check this site every day but now that they haven’t released the name…here I am again! Come on Ben & Jen, I need to get my work done!!

- Kate on January 7th, 2009

I agree with Kate. I am anxiously awaiting the name announcement. I am sooo excited about hearing the name of this prescious baby

- Olivia on January 7th, 2009

Kelpy you might be right

I bet you it could be Charlotte!! Sounds like something they’d pick!

Also, whoever said Scarlet could be on to something too!!

Other colour/flower speculation names (let’s compile them!):

Lily
Scarlet
Rose
Marigold
Avalon
Daisy
Sage
Dahlia
Holly
Iris
Ivy
Jasmine
Rosemary
Olive/Olivia
Paisley
Saffron
Rouge
Amber
Pearl
Sierra/Sienna
Jade
Ivory

I could also see them giving the girl a month name:

ie.

May, June, April

- Len on January 7th, 2009

Congrats. How long until this one had daddy wrapped around her finger. All little girls do it. Congrats and God Bless.

- Patti Fogel on January 7th, 2009

Congrats to the both of u.
Cant wait to hear the name & see her

- Amber on January 7th, 2009

Here are the names I like for her:

MAEVE
SAGE
LILA
OLIVIA
SIERRA
CYRSTAL

I think all those name (especially maeve) would be so nice on this new little girl!

- Cbblogger on January 7th, 2009

Congrats! I hope she is as cute as Violet

Best wishes!

- Brit on January 7th, 2009

My reaction when I saw that Ben and Jennifer had welcomed another girl was ‘FINALLY’. I had been waiting and waiting to see the headlines announcing the birth! Congrats Ben and Jen! I, like others, can’t wait to see pictures of the newest addition. I’m sure she’s as beautiful as Violet. Take care and enjoy your new addition and Violet as much as you can, they grow too fast.
Cassie, from Iowa

- Cassie on January 7th, 2009

hi.. i am so happy for the affleck’s.. congratulations! i ahve always admire jen and ben for being a very good parents to now big sister violet.. they had raised her as a very happy child and i’m sure that with the expertise they have shown on violet being a hands on parents, little sister of violet will be just like her.. congrats!

- sydney on January 8th, 2009

Stella- Anne is actually Jennifer’s own middle name. I, too, can’t wait to hear the name! I love the suggestion of Lucy Grace. It sounds good with Violet, and it would also be honoring Luciana Damon (who appears to go by Lucy).

- CelebBabyLover on January 8th, 2009

CONGRATULATIONS to Jennifer, Ben and Violet. I have been waiting for this announcement for so long…and I really wanted it to be a girl. They are so lucky to have two girls and the new baby is even luckier- Violet is her big sister! I have never seen a more down-to-earth hollywood family and more hands on hollywood parents than Ben and Jennifer. I sincerely hope they continue to remain such a loving family unit because now they have two girls to love!

PS: I am DYING to know the name! I do hope its not something offbeat! Jennifer is not Ashlee Simpson!

- CBBfan on January 8th, 2009

I want to wish Jen & Ben a blessed and safe new year with there new baby daughter. It’s so nice to see two people so much in love. Jen is such a devoted and loving mom. You can see in her eyes each time she looks at violet how much she loves her daughter. I am so happy for both Jen and Ben I wish them many many years of happy and safe family life together.

- Patty on January 8th, 2009

Congratulations!
I have two girls as well and also spaced three years apart. They are now 14 & 11. They get a little challenging once the approach their teens and they may seem to fight constantly. You just have to keep reminding them that family is the most important thing and that sister should always be close no matter what, they should stand up for one another and always make it a part to spend time together instead of just friends. Like the saying “Friends may come and go, but sisters are forever”.
Best Wishes!

- Charla Carpenter on January 8th, 2009

Congrats! My husband and I have 2 girls about the same ages…3 yrs and 20 weeks!! Little girls are the most wonderful blessing…and they will be the best of friends!!

Love and congrats to your beautiful family!

love and happiness. Congrats!

- Heather on January 8th, 2009

Congratulations Ben & Jennifer & Violet, I’m happy for you all, your one Hollywood couple that outshines the others in responsibility and respect for one another

- DARLA FEDDERLY on January 8th, 2009

OMG!! I was hoping it’d be a boy..but im totally sure jen will do it great she’s a wonderful mum and another baby girl in the family will make crazy ben!
congrats!!BEN&JEN.. Its a very special gift.! they are a family really blessed and so down-to-earth and thats really important!
God bless this family!
Im sure this baby girl would be so beautiful as violet!!

- Brenda on January 8th, 2009

I have a 7 year old named Violet and 3 other little girls. I am just hoping that she doesn’t pick one of our other little girl’s names. Yes they have been mentioned already on this thread, they are not trendy yet, and I just dread if our kids names match! Just a rant, sorry.

- danielleLR on January 8th, 2009

Congrats to them! I always kind of thought it would be a girl and so I’m happy to see that that came true. I bet Violet will make a great big sister. However, ever since this was posted I’ve been checking this site very few hours to see if they told the name yet. But since I love their first choice, I am quite sure, this baby will get an equally beatiful name.
So, I’m waiting impatiently to hear of that.

- Annika on January 8th, 2009

I also can’t wait to hear the name.
In case they haven’t chosen yet:
I propose:

Violet Anne and Scarlett Olivia

Violet Anne and Isabella Rose

Violet Anne and Alice Patricia (Patricica being Jen’s mother)

Violet Anne and Melina Belle (Melina being a mix of her sisters’ names Melissa and Susannah)

Can’t wait to hear the baby’s real name.

- Stéph on January 8th, 2009

YEah!!!! congragulations on your second child. happy for you guys. Keep being the excellent parents and be the example for other Hollywood couples with children who love and respect one another. You guys rock

- sheina on January 8th, 2009

I can’t wait for them to release the name!!!
I was thinking they might choose something like Emily Rose. But we shall wait and see!

- brooklyn on January 8th, 2009

Congrats on your new baby girl! I hope you can catch a break from the press for a while. Enjoy your new baby!

- Pownal on January 8th, 2009

Congrats,
Being a mom of 5 and raising them on my own as their mom & dad it is such an honor to see them become their own little person and see each of them become so independent & truly successful makes me proud to say I am their mom

- mom to mom on January 8th, 2009

Ben and Jennifer:

Congrats. It is so nice to see a Hollywood Couple “Normal”
Enjoy your babies……..

Bev

- Beverly Leoce on January 8th, 2009

Congratulations to Ben and Jennifer on their 2nd child! They’re going to have so much fun being the parents of not one but TWO beautiful girls! I wish the Garner-Affleck family the best in all areas of life! I’m so happy for them!

Love, Sherry

- sherrybaby on January 8th, 2009

thats funny steph. My name was going to be Olivia Scarlett,but it is Olivia Alexandra instead. But Scarlett Olivia is just as sweet for a little girl.

- Olivia on January 8th, 2009

WOW another baby girl. What is ben to do! lol awww congrats you guys, another beauty. I cant wait to see her and know her name! Take it easy Jennifer!

- kara on January 8th, 2009

Congratulations, Affleck family. Another little girl, how precious. Violet looks like she’ll be an awesome big sister. I look forward to finding out her name. Was Violet’s name released pretty quick after her birth?

I like some of the suggestions, especially “flower” names such as Daisy or Lily. I can’t see them naming her Lily though…Poppy, however, I can see.

- Denise on January 8th, 2009

We wish Garner-Affleck family the best things life could give to them! Argentines Jen & Ben’s fans are so happy for them! They are the most beautiful family in Hollywood. Jen is so cute, Violet is so cute… We are sure the new baby girl will be such beautiful and sweet as her older sister, mom and dad. Congratulations Jen!!!! You did it!!! We love you!!!!

- Vivian on January 8th, 2009

I had a feeling it would be a girl! Congrats Ben, Jen, & Violet, I think Violet will be a great big sissy!! Hope the name is cute and sweet, nothing wierd like Zulamiaka Toes!

- chowchowpug on January 8th, 2009

For them I would suggest Audrey Olivia. I think that would be cute! I also like Avery Megan and Mallory Rain.

- chowchowpug on January 8th, 2009

Congrats great wway to bring in the new year!:)

- Marena on January 8th, 2009

Congratulations, Ben & Jen, on the birth of baby and big sis to Violet. Much future happiness to your family. -Big “Alias” fan

- Kathy on January 8th, 2009

I am so happy for them! I seriously thought they would have a boy though.

Who do I owe a dime to?

- Mommy_Of_3 on January 8th, 2009

Congratulations to you all! What a wonderful blessing from God. You two are such a wonderful role models! May God continue to bless you both and Violet, too!

- Wendy on January 8th, 2009

Congrats to a wonderful couple! May your precious little one be happy and healthy!

- Michelle on January 8th, 2009

Seriously, all of the name guessing is cracking me up! There are some really cute name suggestions listed above, but the odds of guessing the *actual* first & middle names are slim. There are like 8,000 names to choose from! I suppose we will have to keep checking this site until the baby’s name is released.

- HeatherR on January 8th, 2009

Aww! Two girls, how sweet! I wonder if this baby will look like Ben’s double, since Violet obviously takes after her mother? I’ll bet baby#2 is just as beautiful as little Violet. I’m anxious to hear what they’ve named her!

- Leslie on January 8th, 2009

Did we ever think that maybe they haven’t named her yet?

- Lenaa on January 8th, 2009

i also really like the name Nicolette

- kayla in nj on January 8th, 2009

Congrats~! Wish you all nothing but LOVE~

Congrats! We also had our 2nd daughter, but she was born in October. You are such sweet people, and from my family to yours congrats~! I am sure Violet is excited, my daughter still won’t leave her little sister alone!

- Heather H on January 9th, 2009

Lenaa- You have a very good point! I was starting to wonder why they haven’t released the name yet (I know, I know, like it’s any of our business what they name their baby in the first place!), but perhaps that’s because they haven’t named her yet.

With Violet they choose the name before she was born (it got leaked to the press during the pregnancy), but maybe for this one they’re stumped! Anyway, I wonder if they’re out of the hospital yet. Provided Jen didn’t have a C-section, I would sort of assume so! Oh, and I don’t think we’ll be waiting for Baby Girl Affleck’s name nearly as long as we had to wait for Nell Burton’s name. Ben and Jen are higher profile celebs than Helena and Tim, and I don’t think they’ll be able to get away with keeping the name under wraps for that long!

- CelebBabyLover on January 9th, 2009

I wish them all the best!

- Bean P. Corn on January 9th, 2009

Congrats to Ben and Jen!!! I know they will be wonderful with this precious one as they are with Violet. I wish them all the best.

- Teresa S on January 9th, 2009

I was watching everyday for this announcement, I adore this couple and Violet. They are my favorite celeb couple/family. They seem so in love and so down to earth in raising Violet. This is one lucky baby girl. Congrats to the Affleck family. I know they are trying to stay out of the limelight, but I can’t help myself, I can’t wait to learn her name and see her picture and the whole family interacting.

- Rose in Canada on January 9th, 2009

Kudos to the best parents roles models in the business! Keeping it real. Providing a normal enviroment for Violet and her new baby sisterto thrive and grow up in – forgetting the “Hollywood” standards and staying focus on what’s most important and on top of it adding a second beautiful daughter to the mix. Perfect example of what it should all be about.

- Margaret Mae on January 9th, 2009

Congratulations on your special gift from God. Enjoy your family, expecially the little ones, they grow up so fast.

- Jo on January 9th, 2009

I’m not sure why they hide the name from people? It’s not like their telling us their ATM code!

- Lenaa on January 9th, 2009

Lenaa, perhaps they haven’t thought of one yet?! My friend kept her baby unnamed for 10 days as she couldn’t decide, so its possible they are talking through at the moment. Anyway, they don’t have to tell us until they are ready, its their daughter and I expect they’re just home enjoying her rather than worrying about press releases for her name!

- Chloe on January 9th, 2009

Congratulations to Jen, Ben and new big sister Violet! So excited to hear the baby’s name!

- Shannon on January 9th, 2009

It should be Iris!

- Sara on January 9th, 2009

Maybe they are still deciding on a name.
Victor Garber spoke out the other day about their new arrival, if a name had been chosen maybe he would have slipped up and leaked it???
Just a thought.

And here’s another one.
I think it’s harder to name your second child. Most parents tend to have one or two favorites and give those to their first born (we did) so maybe Jennifer & Ben are still deciding.
Yes, we are all being kept in suspense but it’s not the end of the world. Even though it’s driving me mad not knowing We will know soon enough
I find it hard to believe they are keeping it quiet deliberately, perhaps they want to announce the news themselves once they have made a decision, and not have it leaked to the press.
Like I’m saying…just a thought!

- Kelpy on January 9th, 2009

OK I don’t know if I believe this but my professor in L.A. (who does occasional acting), said the name is Caroline Jennifer.

- Jasmine on January 9th, 2009

When she was pregnant with Violet, I think she said in an interview that she liked the name Victoria. Maybe they’ll be Violet and Victoria.

- Lisa on January 9th, 2009

Congrats! on another baby girl… Violet will have so much fun being a big sister!!
What a wonderful blessing.. Enjoy..

- Lisa on January 9th, 2009

I guessed it was a girl by the way she gained all over (kind of puffy in the face. Can’t wait to see what they name her.

- Irish on January 9th, 2009

May be Victoria after Victor Garbor…..

- April on January 9th, 2009

Can’t wait to see the baby picture. ^__^

- Curiosity Media on January 9th, 2009

Congrats to both of you!!!

- Christine on January 9th, 2009

Congrats to you both & wishing you all the best…Having two girls is a blessing, I know because I to have two daughters & they are world.

- Angie on January 9th, 2009

OMG! You guys are the cutest family ever! So beautiful and so happy. I’m so happy for you guys! I had a little girl in May and can’t get enough of her! Congrats!

- Mandy on January 9th, 2009

What a Blessing. I bet she is as darling as her sister Violet. Your family is one of the most Stable out of the Hollywood mess. A big hug to all of you. Happy New Year, take care and be happy & healthy.

- sandra on January 9th, 2009

ok so excited when i heard this news and am still checkin constantly to hear the name! heres a thought and wishful thinking-are ben and jen keepin everything under wraps because they have a magazine detail? maybe they ve seen how intrusive the media are now with Violet and have decided this is the way to go? its only a thought and probably a wrong one. The media wouldnt let them alone any way i guess.

- maggie on January 9th, 2009

Congratulations! I have three beautiful daughters myself and they are a joy and a blessing. Yours will bring the same to you.

- Sofia on January 9th, 2009

Congrats! I have 3 girls as well- 18 and 16 year old fraternal twins! Unfotunately I didn’t have a great guy like Ben to help me raise them. However, they are awesome! Good luck to you all.

- Wendy Cayias on January 9th, 2009

Wow, Violet seems to suit being the little girl so much that, for me, it’s hard to imagine another little Affleck girl. She is bound to be a stunner anyways and I am sure Violet will be a great big sister.

- Daisy on January 9th, 2009

Congrats On The Arrival Of Another Girl.She be Just As Beautiful As Violet.

- Hannah on January 9th, 2009

Congrats Ben and Jen! I’m sure the new baby girl will be just as adorable as Violet is.

Best wishes!

- Betsy on January 9th, 2009

I would go for Velvet. Violet and Velvet! That’s cool!

- judew on January 9th, 2009

What a great couple,they are a favorite of mine. Contratulations to a fine hollywood family. I wish them well.

- RAMONA on January 9th, 2009

I think you two are the absolutely cutest couple in Hollywood!! Violet is ADORABLE and I am sure the 2nd girl is too!! Congrats!!

- Melissa Krodel on January 9th, 2009

CONGRATULATIONS!!! A baby girl. AWESOME!!!

- K@ley on January 9th, 2009

The Affleck’s are Easterners and it’s traditional to give the children family names. Violet is the name of Jen’s paternal grandmother. Anne is Jen’s middle name which is also a maternal family name. Does anyone know Ben’s maternal grandma’s name? Or they could also go with Patricia (Jen’s mom) and/or Christine (Ben’s mom).

Whatever they choose, it will be a beautiful name!

- Violet's Auntie on January 10th, 2009

Wow Jen congrat on your second baby girl and Violet you are the BIG sister now

- Reb on January 10th, 2009

Congrats to Jen, Ben and Violet! How will Ben handle being surrounded by all of these beautiful ladies!

- Valerie on January 10th, 2009

Congratulations you two, from a fan from back home near Charleston. It would be lovely to have a ROSE to go along with your beautiful garden of beautiful girls! Hope that you are well, and the grandparents must be estatic! Good Luck…

- Elli on January 10th, 2009

Congratulations- VICTORIA ROSE, I would think…

- Elli on January 10th, 2009

Congratulations on your new arrival

- Trina on January 10th, 2009

I hope they don’t release the info, just like Christian Bale who never released his daughter’s name and people weren’t sure what her name was for years. Jen and Ben are private people and don’t really care about all this celebrity baby hoopla. Just keep the name private until they need to sell some movie or cause so that by then the craziness will have died down. And I hope like with Violet, they take their time going out so picturs won’t be taken of the new daughter. Violet is chased around every single day. Let the new baby have some peace.

Personally, I think the only reason they realized the baby’s birth and gender was because the paps follow them constantly and would have noticed if Jen was MIA for awhile. Now that the info is out there, they can ignore the nosey-nellies and enjoy their baby.

- hollyhobby on January 10th, 2009

congrads! i am happy for you. a girl two beautiful kids.

- star on January 10th, 2009

She’ll grow up to be as beautiful as her big sister. Congratulations to the proud parents.

- CC on January 10th, 2009

Have been waiting and watching–congratulations!!! I’m a grandma, and Jennifer, my youngest resembles you. I hope that she marries her “Ben” and they will be the wonderful parents you are. You both have your priorities straight. I’ve watched you since Alias:) Violet and her little sister are lucky to have you as their Mommy and Daddy.

- Debra on January 10th, 2009

and so another day and another regular check in to see if Ben and jen released any name Read on a Jen fansite that Victor Garber said that the birth was much easier for Jen then Violets was!

- maggie on January 10th, 2009

I just had my second girl 3 months ago as well. Enjoy your expanding family. Of all the rights of women, the greatest is to be a mother. Enjoy your time with them. It goes by way too fast. Congrats to you both!

- Stephenie on January 10th, 2009

hollyhobby, I do hope they’ll release a name in a few weeks… just out of curiosity Knowing the name won’t harm the new baby’s privacy.

- Alice on January 10th, 2009

Hollyhobby you are looking on this site because….?????

- Addison on January 10th, 2009

Congratulations to you Jen and Ben as parents, and to you Violet as being a big sister!

May your family be blessed with all the grace of God you need as you are once again Dad and Mom, and now big sister to your little sister.

May you have a wonderful “New Year!”

Be Blessed!

- Nathaniel on January 10th, 2009

I am so jealous. I have all boys. Congratulations to Ben and Jen. It’s wonderful to have healthy children and girls to boot.
Your great parents and I wish you lots of happiness with your kids.

- Bonnie Baker on January 10th, 2009

To Jen and Ben – Congrats!! Glad it was a healthy baby and who cares what it was!! Girl or Boy, who cares, more to love! If ben still wants that Boy, I’m sure Jen will grant him a third try! All the best to this great new family!!

- Vivian F on January 11th, 2009

I love how everyone’s suggesting Charlotte. I think that could be her name which is great because it’s mine too! But if its not Charlotte, I think it could be Lucy or Amelia, nn Mia, like I said before.

- Charlie on January 11th, 2009

Congrat you two! Please name your newborn “JASMINE”.
It is a beautiful name and will go very well with
Violet.

- PL on January 11th, 2009

maybe they should name her sydney affleck. has a cool ring to it

- GH.2006 on January 11th, 2009

I’m so happy for them!I saw this new only yesterday!Another little Violet!How wonderful!I propose the name Charlotte!

- SARA on January 11th, 2009

I keep checking back here a hundred times for a name update lol!

- Emaline on January 11th, 2009

GH is onto something, maybe they will name her Sydney after Sydney Bristow (Jennifer’s character on Alias)!

- Stella on January 11th, 2009

Aw, how wonderful. You can name her Rose and then you will have two beautiful flowers for little girls.!!! Best to you.

- CBANITAP on January 11th, 2009

I’m thinking May. Sort of flowery, and Violet & May would be pretty!

- jen on January 11th, 2009

I’m very happy to hear Ben and Jen welcomed a healthy beautiful baby girl. May you have many happy days with your beautiful girls. Congratulations!!!!

- Isabelle on January 11th, 2009

jen isaid may a while ago, i can totally see her going for a month name- may, june, april, augusta (lol!). i can also see caroline, patricia, elizabeth or charlotte.

this is getting old though, they chose celebrity…. if they think disclosing the name will harm the baby in someway it’s not true.

people just generally care about them and are happy for them and are interested in the name because they admire them. they’re witholding this name why?! it’s their fans who made them who they are who want to know the name. the least they can do is tell us. what’s the big dealio

ok, rant done.

- Lisa on January 11th, 2009

I look on the site for pictures that paps get from stalking and to hear info from celebrities who like to use their kids for publicity. I don’t pretend this site is anything but for fun but I think private people should be allowed to tell the public that it’s none of our business what their kids’ names are or how big the babies were and so forth. If they want to use that info in interviews to sound like normal folk, it’s a free country and that’s what I see on here. Still we all know the paps stalk Violet everyday so we can enjoy her pictures. She has no right to privacy cause we all get a kick out of seeing her. Still if her parents feel like they already have too little privacy and want to keep some things private, I say good for them. None of our lives will be harmed by their need for privacy. It’s a fun diversion for us and that’s it so I don’t know why you all get so crazy when you don’t know. You’ll know eventually when they need to sell a movie. Geez.

- hollyhobby on January 11th, 2009

So happy for Ben & Jen:)

- Kristyn on January 11th, 2009

congrats Ben, Jen, and Violet. It is so exciting to hear about your new baby and I wish the best to all of you!

- missbroadway on January 11th, 2009

WOW!!! Congratulations! Violet is so sweet, adorable, and just downright beautiful. She is exactly like her mother. I can’t wait to see this newest addition to their family! CONGRATS!!!

- Meredith on January 11th, 2009

Congratulations to a wonderful and stable Hollywood couple. Girls are gold and will always treasure their parents. By the way, your little one was born on my birthday, January 6th!

- Fran on January 11th, 2009

Congratulations to Ben and Jen.

- taegan on January 12th, 2009

I think that you two make a wonderful couple and I often check to see if there are new pictures or comments about your family. Violet is a very beautiful girl and I am sure she is going to make a GREAT big sister. Congratulations to the both of you and Violet also.

- Deborah Tomlinson on January 12th, 2009

SO…………What is the new babies name? : )

- Sammie on January 12th, 2009

hollyhobby- Are you implying that Jennifer and Ben use their children to promote their movies? To me, they seem like the last celebs on Earth who would do that!

- CelebBabyLover on January 12th, 2009

Oh yes, but other than that, I do agree with your comment!

- CelebBabyLover on January 12th, 2009

And wow, 475 comments! That’s got to be a CBB record! I think that’s even more comments than the announcement about Knox and Vivienne Jolie-Pitt being born got!

- CelebBabyLover on January 13th, 2009

Apparently the name was leaked and APPARENTLY it’s CHASE MILAN, but I just can’t see them naming their first girl something so pretty and classic like Violet Anne and then calling this little one something as unusual and edgy as Chase Milan. I’d be more inclined to believe Ava Elizabeth, but I’m betting on Lily Grace. Although I’m HOPING for something like Sadie Pearl or Ruby Isobelle. Oh well, we’ll see. I’m sure it will be lovely.
I only know a couple of Violets, and if sibling names are anything to go by then Jennifer and Ben should like the names Lily, Sophie, Serene and Coco. Time will tell… xox

- Zezette on January 13th, 2009

Congrats on the new baby girl!! Wow two girls, that is awesome!!

- Susan on January 17th, 2009

Congratulations to Ben and Jennifer on the birth of their second baby girl.
Poor Ben is now outnumbered, 3 females!!!!

- liliane hauri on January 27th, 2009

Congratulations! Ben and Jennifer are two of my favorite people! It’s exciting to hear of your growing family. Violet is a doll! And I’m sure her little sister is too!

- Ann on February 19th, 2009

Hey she delivered her baby girl on the same day I delivered mine! I’m late, I know.

- lorry on March 12th, 2009
