It's a Girl! D.C. Welcomes Aerin Fenty

The Reliable Source appears to have the scoop: Michelle Fenty, wife of D.C. Mayor Adrian Fenty, has given birth to a healthy baby girl this morning. The gossip column is reporting that Aerin Alexandra Fenty was born at 6:08 a.m. at an undisclosed hospital in the city. Mother and baby are reportedly both doing just fine. According to BabyNameWizard.com, Aerin is an alternate spelling of the name Erin, which is derived from the Irish word for Ireland.

Well, it's no "Bronx Mowgli" but it'll do.

 

monkey, is mowgli a character from the jungle book? maybe that was the name of a gremlin? i can't remember. either way, it's pretty awesome. in a terrible way, of course.

 

oh - and congrats to the fentys! sorry!

 

Aerin? What is that, some sort of hippie shit? Did Phil name her or something?

Anyway, congrats.

 

Clearly, they did not pay attention to the Defamer Simpson Wentz Baby Name Generator. Just pick an NYC borough, add a Disney character, and finish with an overexposed celeb, and voila!

Flushing Pinocchio Pratt !
Tribeca Steamboat Willie DeGeneres-Di Rossi!
Alphabet City Bagheera Jolie-Pitt!

 

Aerin, not to be confused with the Herman Miller Aeron chair, which, incidentally is now available in true black.

 

just the mention of the name pratt gives me the shivers. i never understood his asshatness until i actually listened to him talk. nine seconds of my life that i will never retrieve.

 

is this pronounced like erin because when I first looked at it i though Aryan and figured fenty probably wasn't naming his kid that.

 

Well my daughter's name is Aerin so I think it's quite lovely! I'm sure the little bundle of joy will be a wonderful addition to such a great family! Congratulations!

 

Personally, I like the names Listerine and Pellegrino.

 

monkey-

Has the 'DUMBO Dumbo' combo come up yet?

 

Congratulations to the Fentys!

Do they make child car seats for Smart Cars?

 

Yay, another child to send to private school!

 

Anyone know where I can get a good, used Aeron chair that hasn't been fart damaged?

 

did they ever reveal at which hospital the newest fenty was born?
