Amanda, as this is not an outcome that goes completely against what was expected (there is always a chance that something like that will happen) it is not irony. It is called a coincidence.

Curses to Alanis Morissette and her incorrect diction for preventing an entire generation from actually using a dictionary to look up the word.

Wow this was a surprise, congrats to her. I read she was inspired by madonna and angelina adopting, and she was gonna go to africa but instead picked a child from the states. The baby is african american, and she knows the baby’s mom I heard

I can not get over how much Joely’s girls resemble their half cousin Billie (daughter of Carrie Fisher)!

Congrats to the family!

I just want to say that I really appreciate the fact that, even though it seems to have confused a few people, CBB has the headline as “Joely Fisher Welcomes Daughter Olivia Luna,” rather than “Joely Fisher Adopts Daughter Olivia Luna”.

Joely welcomed a child, and that’s all that matteres.

My 3 year old’s name is Olivia Luna and was 7 1/2 lbs and 19 1/2 inches at birth. How ironic!

“Are people skimming or skipping the first sentence? It says adoption right there so it’s hard to miss (or was for me)!”

Brandi – The headline says “Joely Fisher welcomes daughter Olivia Luna” That’s all I had read when I thought “Wow, I didn’t even know she was pregnant” and then I read the story and realized she had adopted. I think it’s probably the headline throwing people off.

What a beautiful name! Congrats to them

Congrats on the new addition and find it inspiring that she just popped next door to adopt a child who needs a home.

Oops, I misread this and didn’t see she had adopted. My mistake.

Ha I did skip the first sentence too…to be honest I usually just read the baby’s name and skip the rest
