McConaughey Baby Not Named After A Beer
Sanity prevailed this week as Matthew McConaughey did not get his wish, and name his baby boy Budweiser.
Instead, the first child for the actor, 38, and his Brazilian model girlfriend Camila Alves, 25, is named Levi. He was born on July 7 in Los Angeles. McConaughey has explained that Levi is another name for Matthew, the apostle.
The name Levi is a Hebrew name meaning ‘attached to’ or ‘attendant upon.’ Levi was the third son of Jacob, and his descendants became priests serving in the temple in Jerusalem.
It’s a far cry from Budweiser!
