Andy Fossum/Startraks

It’s a girl for the former Home Improvement star! Actor Tim Allen and his wife Jane welcomed their first child together on Saturday, March 28th in Los Angeles, they reveal to Entertainment Tonight. Daughter Elizabeth Allen weighed 5 lbs, 13 oz. A statement released to announce baby girl’s arrival reads,

“The couple is thrilled at the arrival of their new baby and are doing great.”

Elizabeth joins Tim’s older daughter Katherine, 19, from a previous marriage. The pregnancy was announced in January. In February, Tim, 55, revealed they were expecting a baby girl, but admitted that fatherhood the second time around will not be any easier! “The older you get, the less you know,” he joked.

How shocking! A classic girl’s name?! From a celebrity!?
Congrats to the Allens – what a lovely little name for a girl who surely will be beautiful.

- Mrs. R. on March 30th, 2009

Wow! I can’t believe a celeb actually named their child something not totally weird! Elizabeth is so much nicer than a fruit or a New York burrough.

- Kate on March 30th, 2009

congrats!!!

Was this little one early? My prayers are with her that she is healthy and happy. Congrats to the new parents!

- Elle on March 30th, 2009

What a pretty name, Elizabeth and so normal too. It seems to be a trend, that celebs are following, to have an everyday name for their child, especially since for a while there was a competetion to go for more unsual names.

- robinepowell on March 30th, 2009

Congrats to him and his wife. I love the name Elizabeth, it’s a good classic name.

- Jane on March 30th, 2009

Congrats to them!

I like Katherine and Elizabeth- beautiful, classic names!

- Jess from Ohio on March 30th, 2009

Both daughters are named after famous Queens – I have an aunt and uncle who did that, with daughters Katherine, Elizabeth and Victoria. Very cool!

- Ratty on March 30th, 2009

That’s a beatiful name, congratulations to them.

A baby girl with a normal name, which is my middle name! Well done Tim and Jane!

- Helen on March 30th, 2009

That was quick – only seemed like not long ago the pregnancy was announced. Was she early? Seems to be judging by her tiny size.

- J on March 30th, 2009

Wow, she was tiny! 5lbs 3oz! Was she early?

- babyboopie on March 30th, 2009

Lovely name.

- lizzie on March 30th, 2009

Congratulations Tim and Jane on your tiny bundle of joy! I wish you all the best in the future, after all 19 years is quite the difference but I am sure it is like riding a bike..lol.

- Mommy of 3 on March 30th, 2009

Congratulations! I love the name, very simple and very pretty. It fits well with Katherine.

She was very close to 6 lbs, not that tiny. I weighed 5 lbs even at birth and was able to go home within a few days.

- Stephany on March 30th, 2009

Don’t care for the name, but congratulations!

- daniela on March 30th, 2009

Awww, I love the name Elizabeth but I’m slightly biased as it’s my own name. Glad to hear a celebrity name their child that.

- Eliza on March 30th, 2009

We attend the same church and they were missing this Sunday. I think she was early because she was not that big two Sundays ago. That sunday the Priest said to everyone in the congregation..”Your Miracle is coming soon”…I guess the Allen’s took that literaly! Congrats and God Bless!

- MsFleurdeLys on March 30th, 2009

as an Elizabeth myself, i absolutely love her name. =D

- EB on March 30th, 2009

wow. i actually think that normal baby names are becoming a trend for celebrities!
anyway, congratulations a beautiful baby girl!

- Jackie on March 30th, 2009

I know two sisters named Katherine and Elizabeth:)

- Serena on March 30th, 2009

Aww congrats to the couple! I honestly didn’t expect her to deliver this early. I thought prehaps mid April for sure. But I love the name! Elizabeth and Katherine go nice together. I bet she’s a cutie

- Kelly on March 30th, 2009

Does Elizabeth Allen have a middle name? Elizabeth Allen is a
beautiful name. Congratulations to Jane and Tim.

- Lola on March 30th, 2009

Congrats. I read the new this morning. Elizabeth, nice and classy beautiful name It never goes out of style.

- Mia on March 30th, 2009

To answer those who said they thought she was early, according to the calender on this site before she was born, she was due the week of the 15th. So she was a bit late, just on the smaller side.

Katherine and Elizabeth are both very classical and go well together! I would probably never use them myself, not because I don’t like them but simply due to the fact that they both seem to be popular lately. My names Sarah, so I know how it is having 3 other people in my class with the same name.

Good luck to Tim and his whole family. I have always loved Tim and they are truely blessed!

We actually didn’t know her due date! Just spring, so we stuck her in the middle of the calendar.

As I see it, Tim (the tool man) Taylor, will be super charging the baby stroller with Big truck wheels, a turbo jet engine and an air horn! Arh, arh, arh!

- Lynne K. on March 31st, 2009

I went to high school with Jane & her sisters. They were a lovely family & I’m glad to hear they have a new addition. I wish Tim & Jane all the best! Being a mother is the best thing that ever happened to me – I wish the same for Jane.

- Lisa L. from B-ball on March 31st, 2009

I agree that Jane wasn’t neccesarily early. I actually weighed a few ounces LESS than Elizabeth did when I was born, and I was on time (well, I was born two weeks before I was due, but that’s still considered to be in the “normal” range.).

- CelebBabyLover on April 1st, 2009

Another reason to like Tim Allen, he chooses (or at least he helped choose) a NORMAL name for his kids.

What a tiny little girl! I hope she didn’t come too early.
