    celebs: Camila Alves | Matthew McConaughey
    topics: Kids | Hotties | Couples

    Matthew McConaughey and girlfriend Camila Alves love the name Levi. Donato Sardella/WireImage.com It's hard to believe, but Matthew McConaughey, notorious for his naked bongo playing incident in 1999, became a first-time dad today when his model girlfriend Camila Alves gave birth to a bouncing baby boy. Although the actor had joked previously that he was planning to name his son Bud after his favorite beer (Budweiser), that fortunately did not happen. Unfortunately, Matthew's brother Rooster did name one of his kids Miller Lyte, but we'll save that one for another blog post!

    Matthew revealed to OK! magazine that he and Camila have decided to call their little boy Levi Alves McConaughey because "Levi was another name for the apostle Matthew in The Bible" and "they were, in fact, two names for the same person." Wanting to incorporate Camila's family name, the couple selected Alves as the middle name.

    For some reason, Levi kind of seems like the perfect name for McConaughey's kid.

    Do you like the name Levi?

    I don't think that boy names are supposed to be pretty!! and it's definitely masculine. at least his middle name isn't button-fly.

    Cute couple. They appear to be happy. But I saw his personal ID on black and white men personals site """""B l a c k W h i t e K i s s . c o m""""" yesterday. What is he looking for on that site? Looking for black babe?
