Welcoming Jack Black II

CORRECTION: It has now been revealed that Jack Black’s new baby’s name is not Jack, but rather it’s Thomas David. Apparently Jack Black’s real first name is Thomas, so when the family said the baby was named after Jack Black, they meant ‘Thomas.’

In almost total secrecy, Jack Black and his wife Tanya Haden welcomed their second son last week, and only in the last day or so did word leak out that the new baby is named Jack.

Maybe Black felt it was time to keep quiet about babies, since at Cannes two weeks earlier he inadvertently announced to the world that Angelina Jolie is pregnant.

Little Jack Black joins big brother Samuel, who is now two years old.

Jack Black Plays It Safe With Baby Sammy

UPDATE: Jack Black’s second son, born May, 2008, has arrived. His name is Jack. After a slew of wacky baby names, movie star Jack Black and wife Tanya have named their newborn boy Samuel, and according to Black, he’ll go by the nickname ‘Sammy.’ Once again, I’m seeing the continuation of a trend here, started by Mira Sorvino, who named her son Johnny, of going with simple, plain baby names. This follows a season of weirder-than-usual baby names that seems to have peaked with the often-criticized Suri, daughter of Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes.
