Oh man, that baby’s middle name is going to be “heartbreaker”! Haha, congratulations to the Maguire family.

- kait on May 9th, 2009

Wouldn’t it be a hoot if they named him Peter?!

- CelebBabyLover on May 9th, 2009

I had totally predicted a girl for them. Can’t wait to hear his name!!!

- MZ on May 9th, 2009

Normally I don’t even try and guess what people are having but for some reason I had a dream they were having a boy (which is weird because {no offense} he is not someone I normally would dream about) so it’s kinda crazy that they did ;p I’m sure he will be super cute though (Ruby is adorable) and can’t wait to hear a name. How exciting! Congrats to them =)

- Amanda on May 9th, 2009

A boy! I thought they’d have another girl. Congratulations to them! I can’t wait to hear the name.

- Lorus on May 9th, 2009

aww i bet he’ll be a cutie (:
i hope they give him some quirky and unusual name, as i just love hearing strange celebrity baby names!!

- becky on May 9th, 2009

aaw, congrats!

- g!na on May 9th, 2009

Aww congrats to them! I thought they would have a girl, but of course a boy is adorable too

- Rebecka on May 9th, 2009

Good news! I wonder what the boy’s name will be considering his sister is named Ruby Sweetheart!

- eternalcanadian on May 9th, 2009

WOOOOOOOOW CONGRATLATIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i allways was sure that they are having another girl! LOL

- lolita on May 9th, 2009

Awww! Sweet!! Congrats. I can’t wait to hear the name.

- NELLA on May 9th, 2009

Peter?! Ew! No, too common and in French it means ‘to fa*t’.. sorry. Don’t like it at all!

Hope they find a ‘sweet’ middle name, just like Sweetheart. Or another gemstone – Opal or Topaz! LOL!

Topaz Cherub for instance..

Or – ‘Regent Diamond’ –> “Cushion-shaped stellar brilliant cut, formerly belonging to Louis XV, Louis XVI, and Napoleon Bonaparte, it now resides in the Louvre”.

Ruby and Regent!

- j.U.d.E. on May 9th, 2009

Lovely news I thought she would have another girlie.

Gracie

- Grace on May 9th, 2009

jude suggesting the name peter was a joke because spidermans real name is peter parker.

congrats to them, i also thought for sure a girl but was hoping for a boy!!

- April on May 9th, 2009

Wow I hadn’t really thought about what these two would have but I was surprised it was a boy so I must have been thinking it would be a girl deep down!!

Congratulations to all the Maguires.

- Bumbles on May 9th, 2009

LOL at Peter as a name! Maybe they’ll choose Stone!

- Karen on May 9th, 2009

I guess we wont hear a name for a week, arent they Jewish? maybe a hebrew name, I could be wrong, but when a celeb has a baby usually and they are jewish we dont hear the name for a week, especially when its a boy!!!!

- Linda on May 9th, 2009

Congratulations!!! So nice, a girl AND a boy!! Can’t wait to hear the name, I bet it will be just as cute as Ruby’s!

I don’t know why but it felt like Jennifer had been pregnant for ever, like other celebs announced their pregnancy much later, but deliverd much sooner! :-S

- Nika on May 9th, 2009

Lol #15! I rarely think of that! Péter means that, you’re right, but the way it’s pronunced is very different, and the context is too, so I never notice. The german pronunciation is far more awkward to us!

- Solène on May 9th, 2009

Maybe they will call him “Parker”? Just a thought-

- Mary Beth on May 9th, 2009

I thought they were going to have another girl too. If Nicole Richie also has a boy that would be too cute considering she is friends with Jennifer. Can’t wait to hear the name!

- Chris on May 9th, 2009

Really? I did not know Nicole Richie was friends with Jennifer. anyways im so excited that the family had a healthy baby boy! I cant wait to hear his name, and I bet he is going to be just as adorable as Ruby!

- Lisa on May 9th, 2009

Yay! I’m excited to hear his name. Congrats to them!

- fergette on May 9th, 2009

Congratulations to the family! They could just call him Spidey Darling Maguire! Ruby Sweetheart and Spidey Darling!

- babyboopie on May 9th, 2009

Wow that just seemed like the fastest pregnancy ever!! Can’t wait to hear the name!

- JMO on May 9th, 2009

Jacob would be a cute name for him. Jacob Maguire.

- Alicia on May 9th, 2009

Yeah, Jacob Peter Maguire?!

- babyboopie on May 9th, 2009

Yes! LOL, that would be SO cute.

- Alicia on May 9th, 2009

Wow! Congrats to them : )I don’t know why, but I was sooo convinced that they would have another little girl…

- Patrice on May 9th, 2009

Congrats to them! Can’t wait to hear the name.

- Allison on May 9th, 2009

i’m surprised of how much other people were convinced as I was that they’re going to have another girl… i ictured tobey with two little girls but still congrats on baby boy!

- camille on May 9th, 2009

aww congrats to them. Ruby is a true a sweetheart and the little boy will be gorgeous aswell.

- emma on May 10th, 2009

I cannot wait to hear the name, I hope they use another old-fashioned moniker. I just love the vintage style of Ruby

- Jaclyn on May 10th, 2009

DYING to know the name!!!!!

- Emaline on May 10th, 2009

I think a lot of people thought they would have a girl because of their friendship with Ben Affleck/Jennifer Garner and Matt Damon/Luciana since they both have 2 girls (well 3 in Matt and Luciana’s case). Congrats to their family!

- Mattie on May 10th, 2009

Like many of the other posters, I thought for SURE it would be Girl No. 2 for this family! Still, the thought of Tobey with a son makes me smile. He’s so good with Ruby; I know the son will be every bit as darling. Congrats and best wishes to him, Jennifer and Ruby for their new arrival!

- Jackie on May 10th, 2009

Congrats to them! I wonder what they will call him.

- Mary-Helen on May 10th, 2009

Really can’t wait for the name… I think Ruby Sweetheart is an adorable name and she is definately an adorable little girl!
Congrats.

- Jessica on May 11th, 2009

I am so happy for them!!! can’t wait to see him!!!! Congrats. I can’t wait to hear his name!!
