Kevin James talks potential baby names and his non-functioning breasts

Since he named daughter Shea Joelle, 4 weeks, after his beloved Mets’ home stadium, Kevin James promised his wife Steffiana De La Cruz first dibs on naming their next child. Her choice, though, may skew more towards entertainment than sports, he reveals on The Late Show with David Letterman.

I told her she can name our next child after something she likes. I think we’re looking at a Grey’s Anatomy coming out.

Kevin and Steffiana also have an older daughter, Sienna-Marie, 21 months, and Kevin says fatherhood the second time around is a lot less nervewracking.

I was so nervous with the first child, taking her home from the hospital and everything and you kinda loosen up with the second child a little bit, which is nice. The first child, I remember they just give it to you at the hospital, you’re supposed to put her in the carseat and drive home. And I was so nervous. I was 10-2 on the wheel in the right lane 30 miles an hour on the highway with the flashers going. Second kid, I had the top down. I was steering with my knees. I think I hit a drive-thru. I didn’t go straight home.

As for being a hands-on parent, Kevin says he gets involved, but is glad he doesn’t have to breastfeed, although Shea might want him to.

My wife does the breastfeeding, thank God. It’s awkward because at night the baby will sleep with us and my wife will leave in the middle of the night right after the breastfeeding and the baby’s still hungry and she’ll roll over and just look at me. I’m like, ‘No, no. These don’t function.’ She doesn’t believe me. She’s just looking at me like, ‘If you don’t want to give me any, that’s fine. Those are bigger than mom’s.’

Steffiana’s breasts were sore for a bit from feeding, and a nurse advised her to stuff a bag of popsicles in her bra to alleviate the pain, an idea of which Kevin approves.

I’m thinking, ‘Wow! Now I really wanna get in there.’ There’s no better combination in the world than a boob and a popsicle.

Grey’s Anatomy star Chandra Wilson poses with her children, Serena, 13,Joy, 8, and Michael, 19 months, after shooting a Folgers GourmetSelections ad on May 31 in Pasadena, Calif. In the bottom left corneris her longtime partner and father of her children, whom Chandrarevealed to OK! is actually her husband. The actress declines to namehim for privacy’s sake.

There’s something to be said about keeping your family close so that you guys (the tabloids) don’t tear them apart!

When she’s at home with her clan, they can often be found relaxing with a tub of ice cream.

Downtime is sitting on the couch, eating a lot of ice cream. We do that a lot.

Since the ABC drama premiered two years ago, Chandra has shot to fame, an experience she and her kids are still getting used to.

It’s been an interesting ride for them because they saw me gofrom pounding the pavement doing auditions to this level. I keepsaying, in a few minutes, we’ll be back in New York pounding thepavement. I don’t know if I’ll ever get rid of that feeling.

As if 2006 hasn’t already been the year of the Gemini, producing so many twin births that we can’t even keep up, it seems the trend will continue into the new year. Here’s a look at just some of the celebrities expecting twins in 2007:

Marcia Cross & Tom Mahoney, expecting fraternal twins
Desperate Housewives star Marcia Cross has had a whirlwind year and the fun is only going to continue for this primetime actress. 44-year-old Marcia married her beau, stockbroker Tom Mahoney, after many years of wondering if she would ever get her fairytale of having her very own family. As if marrying the man she loved wasn’t enough, shortly after the couple’s June nuptials, Marcia found out that she was expecting and not just one baby, but fraternal twins. Marcia and Tom have recently admitted that theyknow the sex or sexes of their babies, who are due in April, but will keep that secret for now.

Patrick Dempsey & Jillian Fink, expecting twin boys
Shortly after sharing his desire for a sibling for his 4-year-old daughter Tallulah, Patrick Dempsey aka Dr. McDreamy, announced that his wife Jillian was in fact pregnant with their second child. However, the joke was on him, when the couple found out that they were expecting babies two… and three. The family are awaiting two baby boys (presumably fraternal twins) due in late January.

Mia Hamm & Normar Garciaparra, expecting twins
U.S. soccer star Mia Hamm and her hubby, baseball player Nomar Garciaparra, are expecting their first children together… twins. There hasn’t been much information released about this pregnancy, but we can only guess that one if not both of these babies are going to have some athletic ability.

Nicky Byrne & Georgina Byrne, expecting twins
Westlife’s Nicky Byrne and his wife Georgina, who herself is the daughter of the Irish Prime Minister, are expecting their own twins, the first children for both, next summer. Nicky says the couple don’t know the sex of their twins.
