Actress Holly Marie Combs Finally Has A Baby
After what seemed, at least to Holly Marie Combs fans, 
to be the longest pregnancy on record, she finally gave birth yesterday to a baby boy. Combs, who starred in Charmed on The WB for 8 seasons, and husband David Donoho, finally welcomed their son Riley Edward, according to People.
It was initially thought that Combs was expecting a baby in September. When the little one failed to appear, fan sites and celebrity watchers moved the date to October. But when young Riley arrived on Thursday, Donoho told People that “he has hair like Elvis - a full head of black hair. The doctor said he came out looking like a two-year old.”
Well, that explains everything. It looks to me like he was actually due in September, 2005, but stayed in utero for an extra 13 months or so. Technically, that would put him at exactly two years old, just like the doctor said, counting from conception. Maybe 8 seasons of messing around with all that witchcraft stuff on Charmed has had more of an effect on Combs than has been previously thought. We could be witnessing the world’s first 24 month pregnancy. I imagine Riley will be taking his first steps by this weekend, and ready to go Trick-or-Treating by Halloween.
But I digress. This blog is supposed to be about celebrity baby names, not their gestational issues. Riley, according to Baby Names Garden, is of Old English origin, meaning “rye-clearing.” So we can be pretty sure that the name wasn’t chosen because of its original meaning. I guess Combs and Donoho just liked it. Myself, I think there’s more going on with the initials: R.E.D. Isn’t that some kind of wizard thing?
