Pete Wentz and wife Ashlee Simpson-Wentz have welcomed their first child, a baby boy. Bronx Mowgli Wentz arrived on the evening of Thursday, November 20th in Los Angeles, Calif., weighing in at 7 lbs, 11 oz and 20 ½ inches long. In a statement, the couple’s spokesperson shares:

"Ashlee, Pete and baby Bronx are all healthy and happy, and thank everyone for their well wishes!"

"We’re thrilled. [Bronx] stayed up late the first night, smiling ateveryone who came into the room," Pete’s parents, Pete and Dale Wentz, told PEOPLE. "He already seems to have theindependence and charm of both of his parents."

Ashlee’s parents Joe and Tina Simpson released a statement Friday, saying, "We are happy beyond words and incredibly proud of Ashlee andPete. They are unbelievable parentsalready, and we can’t wait to spend Bronx’s first holidays togetherwith the whole family. We are truly blessed." Aunt Jessica adds, "Bronx is beyond precious. I’m over the moon with joy. Life is a beautiful miracle. Ashlee and Pete are healthy,happy, and enjoying every moment."

After a month of rumors, Pete confirmed the pregnancy in May, saying, "Every woman, no matter who they are or what they do for a living, hasthe right to wait at least three months before sharing this very personalnews. I apologize to anyone who felt misinformed but the truth is, the personand growing baby is who I felt most loyal to protect and defend."

The couple was out and about during the pregnancy, most notably appearing at the MTV VMAs in September. In recent weeks, Pete, 29, and Ashlee, 24, laid low as they awaited their baby’s arrival.

  1. Nicole Says:

    Yet another ridiculous name. I seriously miss the days of John and Matt and David.

    Still, she must be relieved to finally have given birth – congrats.

  2. shonda walker Says:

    Mowgli?! Like the character from Jungle Book? That’s different, I wonder whats the meaning behind his name.

  3. Kat Says:

    Congrats to them. I have been waiting for them!

    However, I’m not so keen on the name. BMW? Mowgli’s really cute, but Bronx? I wonder what ties they have to the Bronx that would make them want to name their baby after it?

    And as long as we’re talking baby names:
    I like Zuma more than Bronx! :)

    But congrats, I’m sure the baby is going to be GORGEOUS!!

  4. Belinda Says:

    I’m so happy for them!!! And Bronx is a cute name – his initials are BMW!

    Can’t wait to see pictures of the little guy :)

  5. legemc Says:

    Mowgli? Like from the Jungle Book? Interesting name choice. The first name is rather unusual too, but Brooklyn is becoming more common so why not Bronx?

  6. SMC Says:

    Finally! I’ve been checking this site several times a day to see when their baby would finally make his arrival. I knew it would be a boy after all the comments Pete made. And I’m not at all suprised by their choice in Bronx. Very quirky and unique, just like them! Congrats to the Wentz family!

  7. Ana Says:

    Congrats to the happy family! I can’t wait to see this little guy! The name is as unique as the family.

  8. heather Says:

    bronx mowgli?

    that’s……interesting

  9. Krysta Says:

    Congrats! Now it’s Jessica’s turn!! Beautiful babies, here we come! Too bad Pete wasn’t at the finale of TRL, though. I know, I know, more important things. Fall Out Boy missed him. Welcome Bronx. :) :):):)

  10. Kat Says:

    Awww congrats Ash and Pete! I am a fall out boy/pete wentz fan so I’ve been dying for the baby to arrive.
    I knew from the minute I heard she was pregnant that it would be a boy =)

  11. lulusass Says:

    I’m not so sure that Bronx Wentz flows but a beautiful boy!!! Congratulations.

  12. lilly Says:

    I think its such a sin to name a child such an unusual name. I do like different names, and i do agree that zuma is an awful name, and just cant get use to it, same as this child, even the initials is tacky.

  13. Chana Says:

    CONGRATS TO ASHLEE AND PETE

    The only REAL problem I have with the name is the way Bronx Wentz sounds. But I actually like the name Bronx. It’s in the same vein as Brooklyn, as was mentioned before.

    I know she was so relieved to finally give birth!

  14. BebeB Says:

    Bronx is possibly the worst celebrity name I’ve seen to date. I’m so disappointed that someone like Ashlee, who herself has a badly spelled, trendy name, would inflict that on her child. Don’t these people realise that the child isn’t an extension of their own egos – he’s a person who will one day be tired of explaining to prospective employers or colleges that “yes, my name really *IS* Bronx Wentz … yes, as in “The Bronx”" – I mean honestly!

  15. stacey Says:

    About time, I’ve been checking google news to see when their baby would finally make it’s arrival. I know how long these things can take. Congrats 2 Ashlee and Pete!

  16. Freya Says:

    Congratulations to Ashlee and Pete! I too thought they would have a son.

    Can’t say I’m a fan of the names though and Bronx Wentz doesn’t exactly flow. Still, happy to hear that everyone is happy and healthy :)

  17. jasmine Says:

    Congrats to them! I like Mowgli…I always thought it was cute for a boy.

  18. loli Says:

    Mowgli? intresting name, im sure they chose it because it has a meaning for them, never heard of that 1 before…………. apart from in the jungle book

  19. sophie Says:

    Bronx is really cute but not too sure about Mowgli but either way I cant wait to see this cute little boy! My very best wishes for Ashlee, Pete and little Bronx!

  20. Robin Says:

    She must have a thing for Disney movies…her wedding had an Alice in Wonderland theme and the baby’s middle name is from the Jungle book. I’m sure the baby will be adorable but I can’t say that I love the name but I said the same thing about Zuma and I can’t imagine him being called anything else. Congrats!

  21. kelpy Says:

    Congratulations to the new parents!
    Bronx….now if he were a Beckham baby I’d figure he was conceived there ;)

  22. ashley_anne Says:

    congrats to them! i knew it would be a boy! it doesn’t surprise me that pete went for mowgli. i kind of like it for that matter. but bronx…?

  23. Mia Says:

    I’m not a fan of either professionally, but I think they make a cute couple.

    Congrats on the baby!

    I think Bronx is a cute name…I mean if the Beckhams can name their son Brooklyn, why not Bronx?

    I was expecting we’d hear something soon :)

    By the way, my cousin has the intials BMW, it’s not that bad hahahah

    *watch, someone will start naming their daughter(s) Queens, and Manhattan** j/k lol

  24. Kelly Says:

    Oh wow. For some reason im thinking this is a joke because Pete has said in interviews he promised his dad his first born son would be Pete Wentz the 4th & he doesnt seem like he would break a promise to his dad but maybe im wrong ill just be intrested to hear about the reasons for this name

  25. Sheri Says:

    I’m very happy for them ~ but if you say the name Bronx Wentz outloud it really is a mouthful and sounds very odd! I never would have gone this route, but God bless all of them :)

  26. casey Says:

    It’s an interesting choice of name. It reminds me of Knox a bit, although they’re quite different – just that X theme. Sort of seems like the celebs are trying to out-quirky each other! Maybe all these unusual names are just because they’re usually artistic types in Hollywood.

    Congrats to the new family.

  27. pink.lioness Says:

    Congratulations on a healthy baby boy!

    About the name they’ve chosen, sorry but I’m not keen on that at all… some ppl tend to forget that their children will have to grow up with this name, as they don’t stay cute little babies forever. If my now 17-year old was named Mowgli, he’d most likely rip my head off *lol*
    jmo of course

  28. Samia Says:

    aww congrats to them! I like the name, its different in a rock star kid’s name kinda way :)

  29. Weasel Says:

    Alice and Wonderland is a Lewis Carroll book, not just a DISNEY movie, and the Jungle Book, is a story by Rudyard Kipling. Maybe she likes to READ….
    Bronx Wentz sounds like a sausage meal

  30. Brandi Says:

    Well they said the name would have to work for a rock star or a senator. Maybe we have a New York state senator on our hands some day. How perfect would that be?

    Congratulations to Ashlee and Pete.

  31. Nicole Says:

    I actually don’t mind Bronx so much, but I’m not crazy about Mowgli.

  32. Elizabeth Says:

    Definitely an interesting name! Not sure I like it very much, but I’m very happy for them nonetheless and I think they’ll be great parents.

  33. Stephanie Says:

    Congrats! Parenthood is a wonderful adventure. I wish them good luck and all the happiness in the world!

  34. Maddie Says:

    Mowgli is the name of my aunt’s ex-husband’s son. Bronx is different, but it’s still a nice name, no weirder than Zuma. Congrats to Ashlee and Pete.

  35. Tan Says:

    Way to go Ashlee….I know I was miserable almost a month ago so I can only imagine.I’m glad to hear all is well.This was one of the deliveries I was waiting to hear about.

  36. Dylan Says:

    congrats pete and ashlee!! may you have 100000
    more!! lol xxx

  37. Dubai Says:

    Hey ! i’m a girl from dubai , and i’m sooooooooooooo excited for pete and ashlee ! i really liked the first name , but the second sounded weird , in a good way off-course , cuz it’s unique ! congratz ,i really hope u have a gr8 family , and blessings to all.

  38. Aelys Says:

    Congratulations to Ashlee and Pete.

    Bronx Mowgli… that’s interesting, definitely different…

  39. phoebe Says:

    Hmmm….okay. Interesting. I’m not really a fan of either name to be honest, Bronx is okay as a stand alone name, but I’m with Freya on that one, I’m not sure it flows. Bronx and Wentz are two very pointed names, they’re not what I would think of putting together. And Mowgli?! Wow, that’s one hell of a name to grow up with! I hope the little one is a Disney child as well! Although I’m also not totally believing this either, Pete has spent an unusual amount of time trying to lie to people about different aspects of the pregnancy (which seemingly hasn’t worked as some of you guys have figured it out about the sex!), it wouldn’t be much more of a stretch to imagine him telling tall tales about the birth!

    I think I’ll take Bronx Mowgli Wentz with a pinch of salt for a while, but regardless, congrats to the couple, and to auntie Jessica, who seemed to be possibly more excited than the parents! :) .

  40. Jane Says:

    Very interesting name – I thought Pete would name the baby Peter too. But congrats to the happy couple, I’m sure they’ll be good parents, and now they have a little boy to lavish their love onto! How sweet.

  41. CelebBabyLover Says:

    I, too, have been checking CBB often to see if Ashlee has given birth! Anyway, congrats to them! As for the name…I actually like it, and I didn’t think it was going to be Peter IV given the various comments Pete made about coming up with a name (e.g. that it would have to work for a rock star or a senator). Perhaps Ashlee was against naming their son Peter IV?

    Also, I see your point Phoebe, but this statement didn’t come from Pete. It came from their spokesperson. In anycase, Pete himself has admit that he said various untrue things during the pregnancy to try and throw the media “hounds” off the scent.

    If they had wanted to do that now, they likely just wouldn’t have confirmed the birth.

    Anyway, Bronx sounds like a name they’d choose! Welcome to the world, Bronx Mowgli Wentz!

  42. CelebBabyLover Says:

    Jane- “I thought Pete would name the baby Peter too.” Uh, Pete wasn’t the only one naming the baby! I’m sure Ashlee had quite a bit of say in the matter as well!

  43. aurora mia Says:

    Much love and congratulations to them. When I was naming my little boy, I chose something that sounded good with,”Dr.” before it. With that said, dont ya think its all starting to sound a little Dr. Suess? They have Max and Jax and Pax and now we have Knox and Bronx and Zuma Nesta Rocks? I guess it’s because of these names we check CBB six times a day!! Congratulations on a healthy baby boy :)

  44. Ms.B Says:

    I can’t believe a little Southern girl like Ashlee chose BRONX for a name and MOWGLI? I’ll bet a million bucks Aunt Jessica can’t even pronounce Mowgli! LOL!

  45. ashley Says:

    Congrats on the baby!!! I have two baby boys myself and they are the joys of my life and my biggest loves. They will make you upset sometimes but then they flash the smile and everything is okay and you can’t help but laugh. Enjoy those times because he won’t be a baby forever.

  46. jjj Says:

    That “name” made me literally LOL.

  47. NELLA Says:

    Congrats to Ashlee and Pete!!! I had a feeling they were going to have a boy. The name is unique, but I figured they would give a unique name. I like the name Bronx, it’s edgy & unique.

  48. aya Says:

    congratulations pete and ashlee!!i’m so happy for both of you…bronx is a cute name:)

  49. Judith Says:

    Better teach that kid to fight, because he will be in a lot of them, when he gets older, trying to defend the stupid name his parents gave him. What’s wrong with traditional names like Steven, James, Joseph, etc????

  50. Molly Says:

    The name is interesting. I’m not going to say I don’t like it, because it’s really nobody’s business if we like it or not. Pete and Ashlee are the ones who picked it, and it’s unique. I wonder if both are fans of “The Jungle Book?”

  51. Sara Says:

    Congrats Pete and Ashley!! I hope all is well!

  52. emma Says:

    Personally, I think Bronx Mowgli is just a bit to “way out” for me – it sounds like they’ve purposefully come up with a name that will create attention. But that’s just my opinion. Anyways, congratulations to all 3 of them and I hope mum & baby are doing well! xx

  53. Maraca Says:

    Congrats! I’ve also been checking several times a day for the past couple of days to see if she gave birth. I’m so excited for them.

    I think the name Mowgli is adorable. I don’t get the fuss about it.

    Bronx however, I think, is a horrid name. I could not be more dissappointed. Calling a baby Audio Science, Pilot Inspektor, Zeppelin, Zuma Nesta Rock or Apple seems normal compared to that.

    I’m very sorry, but I just hate it.

    Whatever makes them happy I guess.

    I never would have expected such a sweet Texan girl and a nice guy from Illinois to go for a bold name like that.

    I would love it if he went by Mowgli.

  54. Terri Miller Says:

    Congratulations.

  55. jo.ann Says:

    As expected, crazy names from this couple. I wonder if celebs realise there are normal yet underutilised lovely names out there

  56. Sarita Says:

    I like Mowgli as a cute sweet middle name, but I don’t like Bronx and together they don’t fit. Bronx seems so tough and Mowgli so cute. I think the names don’t flow together at all.

    But congrats and after hearing the name a million times It’ll probably start to sound normal.

  57. ~ Beth ~ Says:

    Congrats to Ashley & Pete.

    As for his comments about the name being something for either a senator or a rockstar…umm…wouldn’t Peter Wentz IV work better? I mean, Pete is a common name & sounds “normal” for a senator and we have overlooked that Pete, himself, is a rockstar? So I’m with everyone who has said that Bronx isn’t their favorite name & that we should take it with a grain of salt. Pete hasn’t always guided us the the right direction with his information.

  58. DLR Says:

    This is turning out to be quite the year for unique baby names! Sunday, Peanut, Zuma, and now Bronx Mowgli. I am sure both Pete and Ashlee must be big fans of the Jungle Book otherwise where did the name come from? I think Bronx Wentz is a cool name, as there’s Brooklyn Beckham.

  59. Joanne Hicks Says:

    congrts on a healty baby boy!

  60. Joanne Hicks Says:

    congratulations to you both

  61. Stephanie Says:

    Congrats Ashlee and Pete. You are going to make amazing parents! The best times are yet to come!! :)

  62. Julie Says:

    Congrats on your new baby. I don’t understand why people can’t name their kids normal names! I know these names have meaning but still, give them a normal name.

  63. Nic Says:

    Congrats…..but are you SURE that’s the baby’s name? :S

  64. Julie Says:

    Congrats on your new baby. Don’t care for the name though.

  65. Debbie Burnett Says:

    Congratulations to the new arrival I love the name :)

  66. petewentzpleasewatchthis Says:

    pete and ash yaaaaaaa you finally had the little boy. i hope everything goes well. we love you guys and you will always have support from me and other fans of fall out boy. good luck. you and ash will be great parents!!!!!!!!!!!!

  67. Kimmy Says:

    CONGRATES TO PETE AND ASHLEE!

    Love the name and I hope you enjoy the new feeling….!

    I wish I had a mum and dad like Bronx mowgli and somany great uncles….

    Pleas guys write a new song for mowgli!!!

    Ashlee many kisses to you….i love you….You´re a great mum

    xoxo kimmy

  68. Johnna Says:

    CONGRATS!!!! having a baby will change you in so many ways, but is so rewarding. i am so happy for them!!!! can’t wait to see how cute the lil guy is

  69. Elizabeth Says:

    Congrats to them! He is going to be one good looking little guy.
    I think I like the name Bronx, however I don’t care for it with the last name Wentz.

  70. ~A~ Says:

    Congrats to the happy couple!

    That said…

    1. Bronx Wentz is hard to say.
    2. Bronx? Have they even BEEN to the Bronx? If not, why would they name a kid after it? If so, WHY WOULD THEY NAME A KID AFTER IT?
    3. The BMW thing is mildly sickening.
    4. Mowgli? Why do I get the feeling that they didn’t read the Kipling story that The Jungle Book is based off of? Why would you choose the name of a boy who runs around with animals in a loincloth?

    That name is bordering on child abuse.

  71. kristin Says:

    i am so happy for you i hope baby Bronx brings you lots of joy and tons of suprises

  72. Stephanie Says:

    Congrats Ashlee and Pete and Welcome Bronx.

    I have been waiting so long to hear the baby news.

    God Bless your family

  73. Jazz Says:

    I actually like the first name Bronx. I think it’s pretty cool. Mowgli I can deal with because it’s a middle name. The only thing is Bronx Wentz is very…sharp sounding I guess,

  74. Stephanie Says:

    Hey, I am from germany and i am really sorry for poor MOWGLI.. how on earth can you name your child like that.. and on top in combination with BRONX.. poor baby.. i mean, is it the low self-esteem of the parents, profil-neurosis???? Like, oh we are not “special” enough, we have to give our child a freaking weird name.. What´s behind it? Too many drugs or a Junglebook fetish???

  75. Debbie Thompson Says:

    That is great news about your baby being born. Now the fun begins. Iam a Mother of four children and now they are all grown. Raising them was the best times of my life.Now Iam a Grandmother and that is fun too! Love them and leave them.Enjoy him they grow up sooo fast. Congradulations

  76. kirsten teafatiller Says:

    congrats on the baby bronx i think its a cute name but good luck with your baby ashlee and pete

  77. Jen Says:

    Congratulations!!! Love the names kinda jealous as I want to rob them now… Just goes to show two creative minds make creative names!! Best of Luck xxx

  78. Victoria Says:

    So much for the baby being big.

  79. Lisa Says:

    Congrats to Ashlee and Pete on the birth of their son.Although i am not keen on the name Bronx Mowgli.I just cant understand why they couldn’t give him a normal name since they have normal names.

  80. Stephanie Says:

    How can they do that to their child??? Is it always just about the parents?? I am sure they did not spent one freaking second to think of their son, when he is older.. 20 year old MOWGLI??? Hilarious.. on the other hand very sad! I can tell you, in europe there would be judges who would for the sake of the child forbid such a sick name! I am just asking myself, how people can become so ignorant and self-absorbed to do this to a baby.. Too much drugs or just a profil-neurosis??? Both is very bad!
    Poor baby! And i hope it at least gets his looks from ashley.. this name AND looking like the father is way too much!

  81. SARA Says:

    I knew it was a boy!Not a fan of the name,I prefer Zuma but it doesn’t matter:an healthy baby is here and this is the important thing!Congrats to them,I’m so happy she finally gives birth

  82. Lisa Says:

    Best Wishes Ashlee and Pete with that new your new bundle of joy Bronx.

  83. Nichola Says:

    Parenthood is the most exciting, exhilarating, tiring, over-the-top, eat-your-heart-out, keep you up late at night, and biggest most euphoric love no drug could ever offer, and last but not least it.. completes you. Congratulations!

  84. Julianna Says:

    Finally! I’ve been checking this site and PEOPLE daily in hopes of seeing news of Ashlee giving birth…
    Interesting name choice. Mowgli is quite the name, but, hey… BMW rocks, right? Congrats for the new parents, I love the two of them!

  85. Lily Says:

    I knew it must’ve been down to the wire because during FOB’s appearence on TRL, they recruited Adam Siska of the Academy Is… to fill in for Pete and play bass.

    Congrats to the two and I wish them all nothing but the best of luck.

    As far as the name goes, I think it could grow on me. Bronx has the “x” in it so, asside from the burrough, it’s in a category with Max, all three of Brad and Angelina’s sons, and Rex so who knows? Mowgli is cute considering I have the image of the little boy from the Jungle Book in my head.

    I will agree with Elizabeth, though, and say that Bronx Wentz doesn’t exactly roll of the tongue, but oh well.

  86. Beverley Says:

    Oh, please, these two have always been attention seekers and this name is just another way for them to get it. If they named him Peter or Michael, no one would have much to say about it.

  87. Alice Says:

    I’d been checking the site fr this, congrats to Pete and Ashley!! Not a fan of the name (Bronx Wentz is quite a mouthful) but it might mean something special to them and that’s what matters!!

  88. Tanya Steele Says:

    The name…oh dear…Bronx Wentz,try to say that fast three times!!

  89. Liz Says:

    HATE the name but glad everyone is happy and healthy. im sure hell be a very talented kiddo.

  90. Celeste Says:

    Yeah, sorry but that’s honestly a horrible name!

  91. Ellerey Says:

    I was wondering when that thing would finally pop out – and I guess yesterday was the day!

    Ashlee was HUGE! And that baby only weighed 7 pounds? Must have his father’s head then – ginormous.

    I would really love to see pictures of him though :)
    Bronx Mowgli is the FUNNIEST name ever XDDD!

    That’s uh… that’s gonna be a badass child.

  92. Ina Says:

    AWWW!!! :O
    Congrats sooo much! :O
    Pete is my biggest hero ! <3<3<3<3 Congrats Congrats Congrats !

  93. *Lulu* Says:

    Congratulations to the proud new parents! It seems like she was pregnant for about 5 years!
    ..but that name…I have no words.

  94. emay Says:

    Congrats to the Wentzs on a healthy baby boy! Personally I hate the name. Bronx Mowgli? I really think that celebs try to top each other with the quirky names. But hey its not my baby so I don’t get a vote. lol I’m just happy that Ashlee and the little one are doing well. God bless.

  95. CeCe Says:

    Congratulations to Ashlee & Pete, on the birth of your son. Enjoy the blessing of this little person, and take care of each other… I’ll pray God will keep you all in His care. Much happiness to you all.

  96. Makayla Says:

    Congrats you guys are so awesome! I wish you the best!!

  97. Mhels Says:

    Congratulations to them! I think the baby’s name is fantastic. Can’t wait to see the cutie :)

  98. Nina Says:

    Ok, I don’t like the name at all. Bronx??? Mowgli???I am inclined to think of it as a joke but they can name their kid whatever they want. I wish Bronx a lot of luck with that name.Much health and happiness to the new fam!

  99. Sarah Says:

    Bottom line: people can name their kids what they want whether we like it or not. However, a word of caution: it’s easy to think up some cool name for your kid but parents have to remember they are not the ones that have to live with the choice. I hope Bronx is a badass, he will need to be!

  100. Keri Says:

    Congratulations Ashlee & Pete on the newest arrival to the Simpson and Wentz families. I know you will both make great parents. You both have a great family and friend support system to guide you along the way of being first time parents. Can’t wait to see pictures of what I am sure will be a handsome little boy.
    What a great name!

  101. Missy Says:

    I see on another site that Pete has the middle name Lewis Kingston. Kingston, although it’s Gwen’s kid, would have been a great choice. I heard the news on the radio and I thought the announcer said Rocks and I was thinking, “A Gwen wannabe” because Zuma Nesta Rock. But glad to see that it is Bronx and not Rocks. But Bronx does sound like it is trying to Hard. Like Apple

  102. Mary Jo Says:

    Congrats to Pete & Ashley & the Simpson & Wentz families. They are both so gorgeous so this baby will no doubt be as beautiful as they are. I wish them a lifetime of joy, good health, happiness & some great memories together as they start a family. Can’t wait to see what the little guy looks like ;)

  103. Amanda Says:

    Congrats Ashlee and Pete. The name is ok, but Pete why not name it after something from Chicago (or have you completely sold-out already)?

  104. clarice Says:

    congrats to them! but the name is really not my style. I’m sure they were thinking of the jungle book, but “mowgli syndrome” is a term used to describe severely neglected children :| why would you want to give your child a name with connotations like that?! it’s obvious they didn’t research the name very much. what a shame.

  105. Harley Says:

    So….that’s interesting. Naming a kid after a part of the city that is…well…an interesting borough depending on which section you are in, and then a Jungle Book character?

  106. madylane Says:

    Hmmm, I can’t help but think the name is a fake. But I guess we will see. I can totally see this couple being the ones to pull that kind of joke though. When my cousin had her son she sent out announcements saying his name was Victory Awesome. My aunt was horrified but it was one of the funniest pranks ever!

  107. Lee Says:

    My friend BRONX was killed in Vietnam almost 40 years ago. i am thrilled with the name!!!

  108. Lis Says:

    I am not a fan of either Ashlee or Pete, but I actually really like the name! Execpt for, I agree that Bronx Wentz doens’t really flow?? Oh well!

    Congrats to them! Can’t wait to see a pic! I bet he has a bunch of black hair!

  109. chatty cricket Says:

    Er, I find it somewhat hilarious that Pete was quoted as saying they didn’t want to go down the far out baby name route and that they would name the baby something that would work if he grew up to be a rockstar or a Senator.

    So much for that…….

    I dunno, Bronx Mowgli just sounds like they’re trying too hard.

  110. M.Smith Says:

    Congratulation on your beautiful baby, but I feel sorry for haveing to grow up with such a horrible name. Shame on you.

  111. prettibrowneyes Says:

    Congrats to Ashley and Pete!

  112. Joan Says:

    Good Grief, what a stupid name. Do these stars ever think before they name?? That kid is stuck with that name. And who cares what she does if the press would stop covering this crap no one would care

  113. Mary Jane Neighbors Says:

    Congratulations on baby Bronx!
    I know he will bring unbelievable joy to your lives!

  114. L TAYLOR Says:

    FINALLY!!! I’M SO HAPPY FOR THIS CUTE COUPLE. CONGRADULATIONS AND I LOVE THE NAME. YOU ARE GOING TO HAVE SO MUCH FUN WITH THAT LITTLE BOY AND HE IS BLESSED TO HAVE PARENTS LIKE YOU. GOOD LUCK. LINDA FROM FLORIDA

  115. sharina Says:

    congrats on the baby
    lol at the initials: bmw

  116. Donna Says:

    what kind of idiots name a kid Bronx Mowgli?…oh yeah, morons…come on people…couldn’t you two have thought of something a little less flaky? he will be the kid getting his butt kicked on the playground everyday…I feel sorry for the kid…

  117. Stacie Says:

    Oh yay!!!! Finally, eh? I actually love the name, I think it’s very cute. Congrats to the new parents!

  118. Clarissa and Tom Says:

    Tom and I would like to say congratulations and we love the baby’s name!!

  119. robyn Says:

    OK, congrats on the baby, but do they not consider that this child has to grow up and live with this name for the REST of his life? Bronx is fine if he’s a tatoo artist or rock star, but what about if he’s working in corporate america? And Mowgli, come on, is he going to be working at Disney Land? Get real, give the kid a name he can live with, not a fantasy name you think sounds cute for your little baby…

  120. ********** Says:

    I want to wish Ashlee and Pete a wonderful life with their new addition to their family. I wish them the best in life and to baby Bronx.

  121. GhostWife Says:

    I somehow knew they would have Bronx on my birthday! Funny! My son was born the same day as Shiloh Jolie-Pitt. I like the name Bronx, but Mowgli? Wow…the names these celebs choose for their children! Congrats, Ashlee and Pete!

  122. Liz Says:

    What the heck?? What did the kid do to deserve THAT name?!

  123. CTBmom Says:

    Congrats to Ashlee and Pete! I actually like the name Bronx Mowgli, it’s very cool….but like some of the others have mentioned, Bronx Wentz doesn’t quite flow off the tongue. Anyway,I am so happy for these two, and can’t wait to see pics of the little guy. Knowing this family, I am sure we can expect to seem the Wentz family on the cover of OK or People magazine very soon, lol. :-)

  124. Brandi Says:

    My initials are BMW too – the W after I got married. I told my husband that if I was going to change my name, he had to buy me the car, since it had my name on it!

    Bronx, however…I guess it doesn’t matter, because kids will hate their name no matter what you pick.

  125. Kristin Says:

    Everything this couple does is for publicity (including getting pregnant), so of course they had to give the poor child a bizarre name for attention. Sorry. Not a fan. But I’m happy they had a healthy baby.

  126. Daniele Says:

    Damn, I was thinking in this few hours ago! o_o

    Congrats for them! *-*

    But…Mowgli?!?! They’re watching too much Disney movies…and anyway…

    CONGRATS! \O/

  127. ashleigh-faye Says:

    CONGRATS ash and pete. Iv been waiting for this news hahaha.

    Now for the name.. Its non of our business what the picked. I know with my son, everyone gave me a weird face when they asked what his name will be. My sons name is Paxton. I can’t tell you how bad it made me feel when ppl said they didnt like it. Its not up to them. So for Ashleys sake I hope she dosnt read this.

  128. D Says:

    YAY! She finally had her baby. She was preggers foreva!

    I love the name Bronx, so edgy. It is a mouthful when you add the last name. Hmmm the middle name totally got me thinking of jungle book!

    Gosh, naming kids is so hard. You want something different but then you don’t want the poor kid to suffer – I am debating names right now! I guess you pick a name and hope your kid doesn’t get teased too much for it ;) .

  129. Joyce Says:

    Congratulations to Pete and Ashley on their beautiful baby boy. Good luck to you all.

  130. tracy Says:

    why is everybody dissing a name that THEY pick. It’s THEIR choice, it’s THEIR child. If they wanted to name the baby ABC, it would be THEIR choice. We don’t have a right to diss on somebody else’s name choice. Don’t you think it’s a tad disrespectful? Be thankful that they are healthy, happy, and doing well.

  131. Katie Says:

    Congratulations on your healthy, happy, baby Boy Pete and Ashlee! Finally!

  132. Julie Rice Says:

    Congratulations Pete and Ashlee. I knew you’d have a boy! He’ll be a rocker just like his daddy!

  133. PCL Says:

    Congrats on a stupid name choice. IDOITS!

  134. Snow Says:

    Another reason to make me think you should wait til the anesthesia wears off before naming your child!

  135. Austyn Says:

    Congrats Ashlee and Pete!!! If their child DIDN’T have a unique name, then I would be worried. Pete’s just that kind of guy. I like the name. Very unique. BMW…that’s funny. I can’t wait to see pictures!

  136. Linda Says:

    Congratulations on the birth of BRONX. Is that where he was conceived? Maybe him and BROOKLYN Beckham will become good friends!

  137. Kay Says:

    Mowgli!?!?!? Seriously???? How sad. As if Bronx was weird enough. Well, with the initials BMW, at least he might get away with a cute nickname like “Beemer”. Congrats on your new little bundle of trouble. LOL I hope he makes you as proud one day as my daughter does for me, who is serving in the navy abroad for her birthday, also on 11/20.

  138. pat Says:

    Congrats! Glad to hear that everyone is happy and healthy. However, the name sounds more like a cute name for a kitten or puppy. I thought they were going to pick something that he would be able to grow up and be either a rock star or a senator with? LOL!!

  139. Pencils Says:

    Wow, I thought the name was a joke at first. It sounds like a New york joke about kids getting named “Brooklyn.” Like, “Might as well name the kid ‘Staten Island’ or ‘The Bronx.’”

    Besides, The Bronx has the article “the” as part of its name.

  140. Janet Says:

    Bronx Mowgli. Why don’t you hang a sign on him that says “Go ahead. Beat me up!”.

  141. Gabi Says:

    congratulations to birth of Bronx Mowgli Wentz !!!

  142. maryanne hoekman Says:

    Congrats!!! Interesting Name choice as well!
    maryanne

  143. Philippa Says:

    WOW she finally had her baby, Ashlee must be so relieved!
    And its a boy, I knew it!
    I can’t say I’m too fond of the name though, but as long as they like it, that’s all that matters!

  144. Disgusted Says:

    It’s amazing how white-trash in-breeds continue to be allowed to procreate. These people don’t have the brains and common sense of a slug and look at the publicity they get.

    Talk about the dumbing down of America. No wonder the rest of the world looks at us with disgust.

  145. Sherry Says:

    Congrats on the new addition to the family. I know you two will be good parents. GOD BLESS.

  146. G Says:

    What a couple of idiots–and I see no reason to congratulate a couple of fame-whore no-talents for spawning.

  147. tawn Says:

    congrats on the new baby Ashley and Pete.This is your day.Can’t wait to see pictures.I wish you guys all the happiness in the world. Everyones been waiting for Bronx arrival. Take care of yourselves.

  148. teresa Says:

    Stupid name from stupid parents.

  149. Jodi Says:

    Congratulations! I am so happy for them. I have been anxiously awaiting their news. Welcome to the world little Bronx!

  150. kells Says:

    worst baby name ever poor child!!!

  151. Jen Says:

    I think people make too much of this “they will have to grow up with this name” stuff. Unique names are increasingly becoming the norm – and not just for celebrities. Friends of mine have told me about kids they know named Rogan (Rogaine?) and Alucard (Dracula spelled backwards….yeah). Having a terribly common name, I would have loved to change it, but that would be way too weird now.

    He probably wouldn’t have too tough a time at a job interview when the interviewer’s name is Moses or Alucard :) .

  152. mim Says:

    Be patient, above all. It’s a long, uphill learning process until this child is 18, or older…

  153. Lecia Says:

    Who cares what anyone says about the name, Different is best.. too many Ethan and Hannahs out there anyways!!! Love the name, enjoy every baby day they are the sweetest!

  154. urkiddingmeright? Says:

    Congrats on the new baby but common on, give the kid a break!! He is already the child of celebrity parents, not to mention the manipulative controlling grandfather that will be involved in his life. So why give this kid a HORRIBLE name?!? Why do people insist, especially celebrities decide to do that to their children? To be unique? Different??? They already are because their parents are celebrities!!!

    I’m happy for the family and pray the little boy is healthy and happy. But the name? UGH!

  155. Ashley Says:

    Congrats!

    Pete revealed recently in October’s issue of Playboy that they think the baby was conceived in NYC:

    “PLAYBOY: Do you know where and when the baby was conceived?

    WENTZ: Ashlee claims to know a specific night when we were in New York. She was off her pill for two or three days before it happened.”

    Perhaps this is where Bronx comes from!

    I agree with a lot of the other posters that Bronx Wentz doesn’t exactly roll off the tongue. I’m eager to see photos of the little guy, though!

  156. Brandi C. Says:

    It’s about time! lol think of how Ashlee feels! I like Bronx for a name and I immediately thought of Brooklyn hehe. And he was born just in time for Thanksgiving. Congrats to the family – I know he`ll be loved.

    And tracy I so agree with you

  157. whooa! Says:

    i would never thought that the baby’s name would be Bronx, but somehow is cute, Bronx Wentz. Haha i thought it was a girl, but still, congratulations!!!

  158. portagevileprincess Says:

    Welcome baby Bronx! Congrats to all! I am sorry that people are so judgemental on the name. I think it’s beautiful and it’s your choice. It’s nice to see that people can’t just congradulate you and keep thier opinions to themselves. I am sure that’s the first thing I would want to see when I look at my page, is a bunch of over opionated idiots turning something so beautiful into thier own personal judging session. Who asked them! Well, good luck!

  159. Allie Says:

    Congrats to them but I really really REALLY dislike the name. Ewwww. Jeez.

  160. SY Says:

    Not a fan of either name, especially when it is all said at the same time. Bronx just feels like they are trying really hard to be cool and as for Mowgli, are they big fans of Jungle Book?

  161. Annie Says:

    Happy they had a healthy baby boy. I wish them all the best. But they should really give the baby a real name. Isn’t Mowgli from the Gremlin movie?

  162. JAN Says:

    HEY ASH CONGRATS ARE IN ORDER.I HOPE YOU ARE FEELING FINE. I BET MOM AND DAD & JESS ARE SPOILING HIM. I HOPE YOU’RE AUNT SALLY AND ANDREA MADE IT IN FOR THE BIRTH. YOU TAKE CARE OF YOU’RE SELF AND THAT BABY. YOU’RE GOING TO BE A GREAT MOM TELL THE FAMILY WE SAID HELLO. MISSING YOU IN LOUSIANA.

  163. cb Says:

    I understand trying to be different/creative with a name, but let’s fast forward a few years and imagine the possibilities for being teased in jr. high & high school. I know plenty of kids who hate their “original” names. Some have even chosen to use their first & middle initials as a nick name….but then again, that won’t work for Bronx.

  164. Sarah Says:

    congratulations! the name is so cute!

  165. Mary Says:

    I grew up in the Bronx and my whole family is from there…and I would NEVER name my kid after it. Congrats to them but the name is just ridiculous…I would have at least thought Pete would shoot for the name “Chicago” since he loves it so much…w.e….to each its own….good luck to the kid

  166. gemini Says:

    I agree with Tracy completely…it’s their child and they can choose to name THEIR child whatever they want….no one here has to live with it, so why does it matter so much…can people not just be happy for them and leave it at that?

  167. Laura German Says:

    Congrats on the baby.. I love the name

  168. Erin Says:

    I had been waiting to here! I’m so happy for them, I’m sure that baby is just too adorable!!!Congrats!

  169. Stephany Says:

    I am SO HAPPY and SO EXCITED for Ashlee and Pete. Ashlee has been one of my favorite singers for a while and I just love her to death!

    The first name is growing on me. I like it. It’s edgy and unique – just like them! I just don’t like how it flows with the last name – Bronx Wentz. But, hey, who cares? It’s their baby and they can name him anything they want!

    Congrats!

  170. Africhic Says:

    I dont think it’s anyone’s business to judge what they have named their child, or even attempt to find out why they have named him. I think its proper to wish them the best.

  171. Overcast Dad Says:

    My family sends their love to your new family. Congratulations and glad to hear everyone is doing well.

  172. Annie Says:

    I am so happy for you both! I love the name! I love fall out boy and you pete! I have been waiting for this day forever!!! you will both be the best of parents!!!

  173. Meghan Says:

    Congratulations on your son!!!! I have a son who is 5 years old and his name is Dallas Austin so don’t let anyone put you down on naming your son Bronx By the way I love the name Mowgli also

  174. jada Says:

    too cool, I am very excited for them!!! Can’t wait to see the pics!! Congrats!

  175. db Says:

    Yes,they can name their child whatever they wish, but we all certainly know that kids are teased over just about anything. Their name choice may invite mockery – they had to have anticipated that. I might choose to name a child Honolulu Chewbacca, after the city of conception and my favorite Star Wars character. But, if I did, I would certainly not expect everyone to hold a straight face when I introduced that child.

  176. brooke Says:

    It’s not a cute name at all, but I’m a big fan of ashlee’s so happy to hear the baby is here and is healthy. He was a good weight, and can’t wait to see pics. I had a feeling ashlle would have a son, like britney and christina, I always pictured her with a son. I hope her sister jessica and tony have a baby next, that would be so cute

  177. JM Says:

    *shaking my head*

    These celebs and their name choices!! Sorry I dislike the name even more so then Zuma Nesta Rock. Just makes no sense. But to them I guess it does.

    I am sure the little guy will be adorable can’t say the same about his name though :( But nonetheless, Congrats! And I guess Pete did let it slip it was a boy awhile ago cause I never had a doubt in my mind that it wasn’t.

  178. Caren Says:

    Bronx Mowgli. Thats different.

    Both names seem to be associated with India. Bronx stems from the surname of a Dutch man named Jonas Bronck/Bronk who traveled to India. The Bronx river and Burough were both named after him.

    The surnam of Bronk stems even further from the name Brink.

    “North German, Dutch, Danish, and Swedish: topographic name for someone who lived by a pasture or green, from Middle Low German brinc ‘edge’, ‘slope’, ‘grazing land’, especially a raised meadow in low-lying marshland. In both Danish and Swedish brink is a borrowing of Dutch brinck ‘waterside slope’; in Danish it means ‘where the water runs deep’.”

    Mowgli of course comes from the Jungle Book and is a made up name. Altho many think it means Frog. Which I supposed goes well with Where the water runs deep. *lol*

    Wentz tho is a dutch surname that stems from the name Werner (Warrior).

  179. Alyssa Says:

    Bronx???…Mowgli???

    *sigh* Celebs and their weird name choices….Poor kid.

  180. Chiara Says:

    Congratulations!

  181. shay Says:

    congrats you guys! your so lucky!

  182. Lola-Jo Says:

    congratualtions to them. I’m so happy for them i am a huge fan and have been waiting for this news for ages. I also love the name its amazing. :)

  183. Shar Says:

    Africhic, we are allowed our opinions, and I think it’s wholly unrealistic to expect that people will not have something to say about a name in any instance, let alone when it is as ‘out there’ as this one. Personally, I think this is the kind of name you look at and think it’s cute on a baby, little baby Mowgli is sweet, but as soon as that boy is at school, it won’t be so cute. As a teacher, I’ve seen some strange names in my time (Rover, Saint, Racer and Butterfly to name only four) and I know what this little one will face, and I don’t see it being any different just because his parents are famous. I used to really love unusual names, but seeing the teasing and bullying that is based on this has totally changed my mind. I’m also with the CBB-ers who don’t feel that the name flows, Bronx and Wentz are two quite harsh words. Congratulations to the family on the birth, but I can’t say I like their chosen name.

  184. Doreen Says:

    Yahhhh!! Congrats Ashlee & Pete!! I’ve been waiting for this announcement!! :) The name is soooo different! Mowgli–I think of Mogwi from the Gremlins!! LOL Can’t wait to ‘meet’ the lil guy!!

  185. Shar Says:

    Also, I would like to add that I’m not entirely sure this is real. I wouldn’t be at all surprised to hear them announce the ‘real’ name in a couple of weeks. This is an interesting couple, that’s for sure.

  186. Sarah Says:

    Congratulations Ashlee and Pete!

    I LOVE the name, it is so unique and i think it’s a wonderful name

  187. Kari Says:

    Congrats to Ashlee and pete!
    I’ve been waiting for ever to hear if ashlee had the baby

  188. Robin Says:

    What’s your name son…..BRONX WENTZ – how hard of a name for a baby to learn and then to speak. I know some adults that would have trouble relaying that quickly. What if he has a lisp….BWONX WENT….WTF?
    Mowgli….Moronic!

  189. Anonima dall'Italia Says:

    Ero sicura che sarebbe stata una bambina, comunque, congratulazioni lo stesso ad Ashlee e Pete! Per quanto riguarda il nome, non è eccezionale, però, contenti loro… di certo non posso oppormi io (povero bambino sventurato!)… BMW… semmai Ferrari… W LA FERRARI, W L’ITALIA!

    While “looking for those simple bare necessities of life”, little Bronx Mowgli will also have to “forget about the worries & strife” that will surely come from the incessant teasing he will have to endure. I wish him luck.

    I dont know about you, but I’m thinking that Bronx Mowgli Wentz…a new name!!

  203. Angie Says:

    I’m so happy for the both of them congrats its about time I’ve been checking this site off and on to see if she had the baby. I like the name its really cool.

  204. Erin Says:

    Kids are teased about anything and everything. Making fun of someone’s name is the easiest way to tack on a personal insult to a stupid empty one. I have a “normal” name (Erin) and was teased about it incessantly. (I went to French school…) Big deal. Kids should learn to grow some thick skin, and be respectful in turn– grow into the uniqueness of your name.

    Congrats Pete & Ashlee!

  205. babyboopie Says:

    Congratulations to Ashlee and Pete on the birth of their baby boy Bronx Mowgli Wentz, bet he is absolutely beautiful! I love the name, it somehow seems to fit!
    I loved Mowgli in the Jungle Book, it was one of my favourite Disney films as a girl, and my son currently loves it along with the Lion King at the moment!
    Bronx is so lucky to have Ashlee and Pete as parents.

  206. mmh Says:

    I will only say that when trying to out-quirky the last person when it comes to celeb baby names, you have to be sure not to cross the line into ridiculous. That is all…

  207. babyboopie Says:

    I also wonder if the Jolie-Pitts won’t be a little upset if somebody’s stolen their next baby name for a son should they adopt one?? As they seem to like the names ending in X! Haha

  208. brooklyn Says:

    Aww! Congrats to Ashlee and Pete! Thata weight seems very healthy! The name Bronx is very unique.

  209. Hanna Says:

    Finally! The baby is gonna be soooooo cute!!!!
    they’re gonna be great parents.

    I think nicole richie shoud be the godmother

  211. Laura Says:

    A bit too childish IMO. Not appropriate for neither a rockstar or senator.

  212. Laura Says:

    Bronx Mowgli Wentz= BMW :)

  213. db Says:

    Ashley’s dad said that she became a woman the day she found out she was pregnant. Yet, her obvious obsession with all things Disney, & now saddling her precious child with this name are decisions that my 6-year old would make. As parents, aren’t we supposed to protect our children as best we can, and not thow them to wolves needlessly? Yes, kids can (and will) be teased over anything. Yes, it is shallow, stupid & empty. But that doesn’t change that it is also hurtful & demoralizing – especially to a young child. I hope Ashley will grow up in time to comfort Bronx when he is teased.

  214. Ashley Says:

    I’m so glad the baby was healthy and I think she was over due but I couldn’t wait for her to have her lil man! CONGRATS!!!! And I can’t wait to see pictures! I think Ashlee looked amazing while she was preggo. She deff had that preggo glow. & I absolutely love the name! I’m a big fan of odd different names so I love it! I wish them all well and just enjoy this time the first year they grow insanely fast! Don’t take it for granted. Luv u guys and again CONGRATS! :-)

  215. jasmine Says:

    I agree with you Shar…I can see them revealing the “real” name later on, and being like “Just kidding!” lol

    I mean, like I said before Mowgli is really neat. And whoever said we shouldn’t be allowed to discuss our opinions on the name must be kidding…it’s not even that serious.

    I’m so happy for Ashlee and Pete…this is one celebrity baby I’d been pretty excited for!

  216. Aida Says:

    I am so happy for Pete and Ashlee!!! Congratulations!!! You gonna be the coolest parents!

    Mowgli may be odd but I love it! I have such good memories of the jungle book!

    Bronx is the name I’m having difficulty getting used to. Congrats anyways!

  219. Crystal Says:

    I’ve been checking the site several times a day waiting for the big announcement. I did the same thing for Gwen and Gavin’s little one. CONGRATULATIONS PETE AND ASHLEE!!! I love the name Bronx. My mom was born in the Bronx so I may be a bit partial! :) CONGRATS AGAIN ON YOUR BEAUTIFUL BABY BOY!!!!

  220. Lacey Says:

    Congratulations on the baby boy!, but not the name. Ekk!
    He was the same weight and height as my daughter.:)

    Congratulations to Ashlee and Pete! I’m sure the little guy will be adorable because Ashlee is so pretty.
    They are both sweet people and deserve happiness.

  225. Jess Says:

    Congratulations! =D

    Bronx is cute (pronounced Br-on-ks?) – very similar to Knox (Angelina & Brad’s) and to Zuma (Gwen & Gavin’s). Not too sure on Mowgli…and not too sure whether the whole name (Bronx Mowgli Wentz) goes but its unique. Can’t wait to hear about the name’s origin!

    Congrats again!! x

  226. lala Says:

    The name is definitely unusual..I named my 11 yr old daughter Brooklyn (she goes by Brook, most of the time) I have had many people comment on her name…and a few that chose that for their own daughter! I may be biased though, I do not like the name Brooklyn for a boy!

    Congrats on your baby boy! Best Wishes!

  228. Angie Says:

    Congrats you guys! Im sure he is beautiful! Enjoy cause babies are so precious and grow up so fast :)

  229. ERICKA Says:

    I’ve been checking on and off for the last few days!

    That name doesn’t roll off the tongue very nicely lol…but congrats to them!

  230. Chassity Says:

    congrats pete & ash. and my mother will be thrill to know that not only did she born on joe biden birthday, but that ashley gave birth on her 49 birthday! ;p

  231. lala Says:

    Just to add to my last comment..in my daughters kindergarten class (6 yrs ago) there was a Boston, Cheyenne, Savannah, Madison, Charlotte and of course, my Brooklyn!!!

    On another note, the name ‘Olive’ is starting to grow on me…but I cannot see myself naming my child that…yet!

  232. Rebecca Says:

    All I can say is Congratulations and enjoy your baby!! Be proud of yourselves and jot down all your memories with him from here on out so you never forget the little things!! God Bless

  233. kate Says:

    congrats!!!! i actually really like the name. bronx was probably next on brad & angelina’s list of names – im sure they are dissappointed that ash & pete beat them to it!! and mowgli shows the fun side of them that im sure bronx will inherit. although bronx wentz doesn’t exactly flow too well, i think the name is a really great choice for them :)

  234. Louise Says:

    Possibly the worst celebrity name in History. He will get bullied at school. What is it with Americans who think it is acceptable to call their children the most ridiculous names?? My parents called me Snow but I changed it when I was 18 due to the amount of names I got called.

  235. Sharon Says:

    Congratulations on your baby boy, Bronx. Motherhood is the most amazing thing you’ll ever do in your life (I mean that in a good way). Cherish each moment because they grow up so quick!! Can’t wait to see the pictures of you and your little one!
    P.S You looked amazing while pregnant!

    Congrats to Auntie Jessica as well!

  236. Whitney Says:

    Brooklyn is an actual name – that is also Donna Summer’s daughter names….. can be spelled Brooklynn as well as other variations…but Bronx – whats next Long Island, Staten Island, Queens, Kew Gardens… It is not as bad as Alabama or even Boston but still…..does it make it okay to name a child a “crazy”name cause you have millions???? I’m not saying everyone has to be Madison, Madelyn or Emily or Michael, John or Dylan but please…..

    I am named Whitney and my sister is Sydney and those were not common in the early 80’s but I don’t and did not get made fun of because my name was just insane….

  237. Michelle Davis Says:

    congrats to MOM, DAD and baby Bronx. I have followed that growing baby bump all these months and those awesome outfits, and the smiles of joy on both your faces. Enjoy your little angel from Heaven. God be with all 3 of you

  238. Diaper Cakes Becca Says:

    congrats again and good luck!

  243. Nikka Says:

    Lesia i totally agreee, too many Ethans and Nathans and Owens and Adams etc…

    Snow, they had the names prepared upfront. She didn’t have anesthesia when they were choising the names.

    I haven’t read the Jungle book but i know the story and I know how the book characters are seen as childhood heros (i had few, like Winnetou and for a long long time i want to name my children that)

    I love the name

  244. Sabrina Ruiz Says:

    Aww, congratulations.

  245. Doreen Says:

    Well, if she was off her pill in New York…hehe this is probably where the name ‘Bronx’ came from. :)

  246. Jennifer Says:

    Finally! Congrats Ashlee & Pete! I like the name ~ and should considering my family has very unique and interesting names! Enjoy your new little bundle of joy!!!

  247. kaityyyyy Says:

    CongratS so Much!!!!!!!!!!!

  251. Jeni Says:

    Congrats to them both. But I’m in the same boat that it’s such an odd name. And not just that it’s Bronx, but both the first and middle name together. I guess people can name their kids whatever they want though.

  252. Ahme Says:

    Mowgli? Come on! Seriously? Jeez.

  253. april Says:

    congratulations on your new bundle of joy. enjoy every moment, it flies by so fast. a baby is the most precious gift you could ever have. be thankful for him. they grow up to fast.

  255. TracyG Says:

    Congrats to the families!!!

    Does anybody else feel that in about 18-20 years we are going to see a LOOOONG line at the name changing office in Hollywood? With all these celebs trying to “out quirk” each other, it’s the poor kids who have to suffer.

    I would also love to get my hands on the baby books these celebs are using! LOL!

  256. lou Says:

    what a cool name for a cool baby , you now get to discover a most fullfilling type of love , congrats x lou

  257. sarah Says:

    Congrats!!!!

  258. nikki Says:

    what a coincidence!!! i knew me and ashlee were due around the same time, but who’da thunk we’d go into labor on the same day! i gave birth to my son this morning at 1:20 AM after being in serious labor all of thursday. great to know i wasn’t the only one dealing with labor pains yesterday, hahaha! congratulations ashley, pete, and bronx! great to share this joy with someone i don’t know, but i know how happy they are right now!!!

  259. beth Says:

    YEAH!!!!! Congrats Ashley and Pete. I’m sooo happy for you both. I love that you came up with a different name. I’m going to do the same when I have kids. I CAN’T wait to see lil bronx. He’s going to be such a lil cutie!!!!! I know you’ll be GREAT parents! Again CONGRATS!!!!!!!!

  260. phoebe Says:

    CONGRATULATIONS Nikki! :) .

  261. eva Says:

    To answer Shonda’s question at the very top: the author of the Jungle Book, Rudyard Kipling, made up the word Mowgli for the protagonist of his story.In the book it is claimed that it means “frog” in the language of the jungle but it doesn’t mean anything outside of the literary world.

  262. samantha Says:

    I m so happy for them theyll be great parents to lil bronx

  263. Jeanine Says:

    Congrats to them! :)
    but the name… eek! its to be expected now though all the hollywood baby names seem to get odder by the couple! Congrats to them though I’m sure hes gorgeous! :)

  264. michelle Says:

    Congratulations to the parent of Bronx: Ashlee and Pete!!!
    Well done. You guys did it! Good JOB!!! SO happy for them!

  265. Heather Says:

    Congrats to the couple. I hope everything is alright. I feel bad for Ashlee. I just read that Pete is playing a show in Chicago on Dec. 2nd. I would be so sad to be without my husband shortly after giving birth. It’s not good for Ashlee, but I’m a secret FOB fan and I want to watch the live footage of the concert on Fuse Dec. 16th. LOL.

  266. JZ Says:

    Congrat’s! A great, unique name for the baby boy. . . love it! Why not? I wish them all the best. They make a nice couple. Stay true to yourselves and your family that’s what matters most!

  267. Jessica Says:

    Can someone please tell me how you are supposed to pronounce Mowgli. I heard its Mow like cow; gli like glee. But I’m not sure.

  268. michelle Says:

    Congrats to them! The name is cute, but as a speech pathologist, I hope that this little guy isn’t destined to have difficulty pronouncing his name!!

  269. Desi T. Says:

    Congrats on your new baby boy! Hope he turns out to be a lil rocker like his daddy!

  270. Emmy Says:

    Sorry but…that’s just one of the worst names I’ve ever heard!! it’s ridiculous

    Congrats on Baby Bronx (love the name by the way;very unique)I wish you all the very best. Parenthood is very difficult but very very worth it.Also, i must warn you, you know now you don’t have your own names,now they are ..oh thats Bronx’s mom or dad or parents.LOL but true. May God continue to Bless your family. Debbie

  275. mrsmek Says:

  279. Corey Says:

    CONGRATULATIONS! I HONESTLY CANT PICTURE A BETTER MOM! YOU TWO ARE GOING TO BE GREAT PARENTS!! ALSO CONGRATS TO JESS! YOUR GOING TO ALSO BE A GREAT AUNT!!!

  280. BJ Says:

    I’m all for unique names, but come on. Bronx? Neither of them are even from New York. And Mowgli? That kid is in for a lifetime of teasing.

  281. Branislav J. Says:

    Wow! I didn’t even know she was pregnant (all this time)(?)
    Well, congrats to her and Pete for their first addition. :)

  282. Becks Says:

    I keep checking back here thinking it might be a joke. I know it sounds mean, but sometimes I wonder how much thought people put into these names… like, he’s still going to be named Bronx Mowgli when he’s 75 years old…

  283. Sharon Massie Says:

    I want to congradulate Pete and Ashley on the birth of their baby boy. I hope things go well for all of you! I just found out that I’m going to be a grandma for the first time in July 2009. I am very excited!!1

  284. J. Quiggzzzzz Says:

    I love you guys! i mean, it took a while to warm up to the whole marriage/pregnancy just cuz i’ve loved pete for so long haha. but im extremely happy. hmm Bronx Mowgli, interesting. but, did anyone expect THE PETE WENTZ to be “normal” about his baby-naming? nahh, me neither.

  285. Stef Says:

    Congratulations to Ashley and Pete!

    I hate the name though. I was actually born in the Bronx but it’s not something I would name my child. I was hoping they would come up with something a bit more….normal.

  286. Nicki Says:

    I like Bronx, but not with their last name…it’s awkward. But congrats anyway!!!

  287. Bobbi Says:

    Congratulations to the both of them! Especially to Ashlee, who seemed to be pregnant for what seemed like ever! I know the name really sparked both sides with like and dislike, but hey, it’s their child, they can do as they please. :] I like Bronx, it’s a name that fits the family, I think. Mowgli, I’m sure there’s more meaning behind it than people are leaning on :]

  288. Alanna'sMom Says:

    Congrats Ashlee and Pete! It’s the hardest job you’ll ever love, and you’re in for lots of fun and work! Ignore people’s comments on your son’s name, it’s your choice not theirs. Personally, I like Bronx. Sounds like a little rockstar!

  289. Alanna'sMom Says:

  292. sat Says:

    HAPPY BIRTHDATY BABY BRONX~
    Best wishes to the proud family. I hope the delivery was safe and smooth/ I LOVE the name Mowgli!!!!!

  293. Leigh Ann Phelps Says:

    Congrat on the baby and good luck to the new parnet. And can not wait to see pic

  294. Leigh Says:

    Congrats to Ashley & Pete! A child is truly a blessing. I hope they will savor every second of the coming days, weeks, and months… Best wishes to them! What a beautiful way to celebrate the holiday season!!

  295. Amanda Says:

    Congrats to the new parents. Like everyone else I have checked this site every day two or three times a day for news on the arrival of Baby Wentz (what I called the baby before we knew the sex or name)I’m happy that its all over for Ashlee,and now she can relax and she Pete can enjoy their new bundle of joy.

  296. Kathi Says:

    Congradulations Ashley & Pete,

    I am so happy for you all!!!!

    God Bless you all!!!!!!

    You both resemble what true love is all about!!!!

  297. Kate Says:

    Congrats to them, but I think the name is just cruel. That’s just asking for someone to tease your child. I’m all for being unique…but not at the expense of a child.

  298. Jessica Says:

    CONGRATS!!!!!!!!:)

  299. Jessica Says:

    Thanks ivonne3, that sounds better than my pronunciation.

    So I said it out loud and I still don’t like the name. Oh well. I wonder what he looks like.

  300. CelebBabyLover Says:

    Well, it sounds like Bronx Mowgli IS the baby’s name. I don’t think that Pete’s father would lie about his grandson’s name! I also can’t see Pete or Ashlee asking their families to lie about something like that for them.

    Also, I never saw any of Pete’s interviews where he said he’d name a son Peter IV, but…Is it possible he was joking about that?

    Speaking of names…I didn’t know Pete’s mom’s name was Dale! Luckily, before commenting further, I had the presence of mind to look up the name on Babynames.com…and discovered that it is indeed a unisex name. I’ve just never heard of a woman named that, so it surprised me at first!

    Anyway, you can tell that Pete’s and Ashlee’s parents are proud grandparents already! I wonder if Jessica and Tony will have a baby next.

    If/when they do, I get the feeling they’ll have a girl. Anyone else agree?

  301. Stacey Says:

    CONGRATULATIONS!!!

  302. Xabiey Says:

    Congratulation Ashley & pete, Your baby’s name is BONITO NOMBRE.

  303. Klaire Says:

    I have been watching this site as well to see when the baby would arrive.So congrats Pete and Ashlee and welcome Bronx.The name is unusual but its kinda cute.The jungle book name was kinda weird but its still a cute name.And his initials are BMW awwwww.

  304. anon Says:

    i personally think that is one of the ugliest names i’ve ever heard. congratulations on saddling your kid with names you clearly picked out of a hat.

  305. Jen Says:

    CONGRATS ash and pete!!
    I have been anxiously awaiting to see the news of when you had the baby!!
    you are both such amazing people and a truly beautiful couple!!
    I wish you both the best with your newborn!!

  306. Mitch Says:

    Stupid name for idiot people. Baby is probably ugly like them and will have a beaker nose like her….YUK! Poor thing!

  307. Speckle-Fart Says:

    Bronz Mowgli? Oh dear God.

  308. Sasea Says:

    How original..it’s initials are BMW. That’s terrific..good role models. There is nothing more special in life than having a baby named after a car and a disney movie

  309. Kristen Says:

    First of all…. I think Ashlee and Whats his name need to get over themselves. Ashlee is just as bad as her sister… They need to get out of la la land and into the real world. Let them walk a day in someone else’s shoes… and see how they feel naming their baby “BRONX” Come on. Ashlee..GROW UP

  310. Jo Says:

    Congrats on the new addition…
    AND in naming that bub you have won yourself a spot on the “Celebrities who give their Babies Dumb Tryhard Names” list…
    I mean seriously, Bronx, you could live with it, its actually not so bad…
    Even Mowgli, you could live with that as a first name, that is if you learnt to fight young…
    but together??? And with Wentz as a surname??? Poor lil fella…

    Must admit, I bet he is super dooper cute!!!
    The name may get easier to hear, but I am sure that is only because we will hear about it repeatedly in the press…

    As parents, they can call him whatever they like, my comments are simply my opinion, I just hope he gets a nickname…Mo perhaps?? lol

  311. Erin Quail Says:

    Massive Congratulations guys!!!

  312. Guest Says:

    Congratulations to Ashlee and Pete!!!
    I love the name Bronx, but where did they get Mowgli?

  313. carey Says:

    I can’t imagine that everyone is rejoicing over this shotgun wedding cild. One daughter divorced who later claims to have a string of lovers. Another shotgun wedding who gives the child a ridiculous name. This too will be over soon. And Preacher Joe, unless you’re counting your millions, you have been a MISERABLE FAILURE as a parent. Shame on you and the whore you’ve become and the ones you created. Get your heart back in the right place.

  314. Letty Miller Says:

    Congrats,Pete and Ashley your gonna be great parents remember take it one day at a time and don’t forget time for each other…very happy for ya’ll.Letty Miller ,Texas

  315. Jill Says:

    hey guys…i’m a huge fan of both of yous and i was watching tv everyday since i heard ashlee was pregnant and i could not wait until she had the baby…and now she finally had it…i wish i could see pictures of the new baby boy and the name is really neat because i’ve never heard of this name before so i think it’s cool that you guys picked this name…email me at rabroty@yahoo.com please

  321. ANB Says:

    Ha, I love the name Mowgli.
    But why not Peter Lewis Kingston Wentz? You don’t have to call the baby “Pete” “Peter” or “Petey”
    you could just call him Bronx or Mowgli, I’ve just always thought that If you’re a Jr or a 3rd or 4th it’s kind of
    your “duty”, in a way to honor the name and give it to your son even if you don’t wish to call him that. I know Jrs that use completely different names, But I really do love the name. Especially Mowgli.

  322. Patty Says:

    :) Congrats Ashlee&Pete !
    I have been waiting for these moment, and now, the little boy is here.
    Best of wishes.
    when will we see a picture of the baby???

    i guess it could have been worse… new york batman wentz?
    i am glad that the baby is here- it seems like she was preggo forever…

  330. alice Says:

  331. Carly Says:

    Cute name, though I do wonder if you’ve tried to say Bronx Wentz out loud… it isn’t the most flowy names but adorable all the same

  332. gabrielle Says:

    Congrats on a healthy baby boy! you are in for the biggest, hardest and most rewarding job of your life. Don’t let anyone scare you about not sleeping and all the bodily fluids….it won’t even matter to you because he is yours. Let as many people help you as you can and enjoy how tiny he is now because you will blink and he will be 7 like my daughter! i was the same age when i had her and i would never change a thing about it. health and happiness to you and your new addition ;)

    WOW!!! Congrats!!! I am happy for Ashlee and Pete. Babies make the world go round and thier lives will be changed forever. And to top it off now me and Ashlee have something in common, Bronx was born on my son’s birthday, he turned 6 this year. Yay for November babies they are the best. Good Luck and have fun with your little one

  336. Sarah Says:

    CONGRATS!!!!

    Oh my god, know one even knows how how happy i am for them, ive been waiting since the “you cant download a baby” video, even though that was 3 months or something before they announced it i knew she was pregnant and i was so happy for them. now they have Bronx and
    OMG am i happy, im so glad Ash and Bronx are ok, i was a little worried for both of them :| .

    :D

  337. jess Says:

    I love the name bronx. I am from NY and I think that definetly is a rock star name. Congrats!

  338. babyboopie Says:

    I think I know why they named him Bronx Mowgli- because Mowgli in the Jungle book has masses of thick black hair and I think baby Bronx has too and since they have an obsession with disney, they named him that? Just an idea

  339. maudeline thelusca Says:

    Dear Mr and Mrs Wentz:

    Congratulation on your new heavenly baby boy. Remember he is god gift from above. Be as greatful and appreciative to him. Loves and cherish Baby Bronx each and everyday of his lives.

    never in a million years!

  346. Susan Says:

    Congrats on the baby…..but honestly what are you two smoking to come up with that name? MOWGLI living in the BRONX zoo?!?!

    Did you THINK before you did this to a child?

    New-wave wanna-be no talent generation giving kids names that will torment the for life. Leave your legacy in another way.

    Congrats to the Wentz and Simpson families! Seems like we’ve been waiting for this birth forever. I could have sworn that she was due in October. As far as the name, I don’t have to like it.

  348. Rose Says:

    Congratulations to Ashlee and Pete!
    I love the name that you gave your son and I love Fall Out Boy, I went to the concert and it was so fantastic :)

    Congrats to Ashlee Simpson-Wentz! Bronx isn’t so weird by celeb baby name standards and it seems like they have a thing for Fairy tales (Alice in Wonderland, Winnie The Pooh and now the Jungle Book). Either way it’s a fun name

  350. Danielle Says:

    Sad to say I am not a huge fan of either parents’ music, but am a huge fan of the incredible love and devotion Ashlee and Pete have for each other. I wish them the best of luck as they carry that love on to their new baby boy.

    Congratulations!!

  351. Robinviolet Hall Says:

    I would just like to say congrats on the little bundle of joy but that poor little bundle has to grow up with a name that does not flow and will be picked on in school , I’m a mother of five who has two children with mis-spelled names and no-one can say them correctly, I feel bad on their choice of names that their little boy might come home crying like my child does, pregnant women beware your child has to live with what you name them!!!!!!

  352. CJB Says:

    Congrats Ashlee and Pete!!

  353. lisa oraff Says:

    I wonder if the name Bronx means he was conceived in the Bronx N.Y ? Like Victoria and David Beckham with Brooklyn N.Y. If so I think its a wonderful way to remember and pay tribute to the very place that love conceived a baby… Or maybe Ashlees onto the name ending with x like Angelina with Maddox Pax and Knox ??

  354. Kristin Says:

    Congrats on your new little boy. Little boys will rule you heart.

  355. stephanie Says:

  359. Jenny Says:

  361. Kaylin Says:

  362. Christina Says:

    Congrats to you Ashlee and Pete Wentz on your new baby boy Bronx Mowgli Wentz. I wish you 2 the best of luck with your new son. I’m happy for you guys and i’m also a fan of you guys also.

  363. Lindsay Says:

    I am so excited for Ashlee and Pete’s baby! They are awesome people and I think they are going to be amazing parents!!!

  364. CelebBabyLover Says:

    lisa oraff- Maybe Ashlee likes names ending in X like Angelina does? What about PETE and BRAD? Do you think they had no say-so in naming their kids, and that they don’t also like names ending in X (although I realize that Brad wasn’t in the picture when Angie adopted Maddox)?

    Sorry, it’s just a pet peeve of mine when people seem to think that it’s only the mother (or the father in some cases) who likes/chooses certain names (and this pet peeve is two-fold with Angie, as people also tend to mention just her in regard to adopting more kids and things like that).

  365. Kris Vanek Says:

    I think u will be the best parrents on the world. HF and GL:-*

    Kris

  366. Mia Says:

    Generally naming a child is a combined effort, but some couples, one is far more easy going with the name choice.

    But, in the case of Brad/Angelina, it’s very much a combined effort. I think since Maddox already had the “X” name, and Angie’s mom suggested the name Pax,the name Knox (who was Brad’s grandfather) just seemed to fit perfectly.

  367. iLOVEpeteWENTZ Says:

    congrats, pete && ashlee! love the name you chose for your baby boy. :]

  368. Johanna Says:

    omg im soo happy for u! the kid has a very intersting name but i like it and i wish u all good luck and to be good and happy!!i send u the best of wishes

  372. Suzy Says:

    Congratulations to Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz, on the birth of their beautiful bouncing baby boy, Bronx! I wonder what the name Bronx represents to his parents. Perhaps Ash and Pete conceived baby Bronx in the famed NYC burrough? Maybe we’ll never know, but who cares? As long as they are happy, that’s all that matters!

  373. Nikkolette Says:

    Congrats on getting married and having a beautiful baby boy.Its been a big year for you both.Lets hope for more to come.Make sure you take good care of your precious little Bronx,not saying that you won’t.And I hope the best to come for you,Pete,and Bronx

    you are both going to be great parents and i know that your son will have the best parents. im so annoyed i have to wait 1 year and 2 months until i can come to one of your concerts, pete, because you have to be 14. i guess i’ll have to wait but when the day comes it is going to be the best!!! i love you both xx

  386. KristinRenee Says:

    Congrats guys. I am so happy for you.
    You two deserve the best.
    Hope you had a very good baby’s first Christmas.

  387. Niky Says:

    I’m so annoyed that 1. my net has been down for so long and 2. i live in the uk and hadnt heard before now lol
    congrats, hope Bronx is doing well, ignore the comments insulting his names, everyone is intitled to name their child whatever they want and I would say its a “tame” name compared to some! (im waiting for the day someone calls their kid Andrex “because the babys soft just like the loo roll”) enjoy the time before he talks and starts getting round, when hes smearing lipstick over the house and wiped marmite in your underwear laughing his head off while doing it you will soon wish he was tiny and mute again lol

  388. calleygrant Says:

    congrats I’m so happy i’ve been waiting and now bronx is finally born and I know ashley and pete will be good parents.

  389. Kim Says:

    congrats Ashlee and Pete! I love you guys! Cute name for the baby! At least no one will get him mixed up with anyone else! :)
