Chris Pratt and Katherine Schwarzenegger's First Baby's Name

Chris Pratt and Katherine Schwarzenegger's Baby Name Has a Thoughtful Family Tie

Chris Pratt and Katherine Schwarzenegger have officially welcomed their first child together! Chris shared the exciting news on Instagram alongside a photo of he and Katherine holding hands with their new daughter: Lyla Maria Schwarzenegger Pratt.

"We are beyond thrilled to announce the birth of our daughter, Lyla Maria Schwarzenegger Pratt," wrote the 41-year-old actor. "We couldn't be happier. Both mo and baby are doing great. We are extremely blessed. Love Katherine and Chris."

The name Lyla means "night" in Arabic, and is considered to be a fast-rising version of Lila. Of course, Lyla's middle name, Maria, is likely a nod to Katherine's mom, Maria Shriver.

The Guardians of the Galaxy star also shares a 7-year-old son with his ex-wife, actress Anna Faris. We can't wait to see even more photos of Lyla! Congrats to the growing family.
