The Brangelina twins have finally arrived.  Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt welcomed Knox Leon and Vivienne Marcheline on Saturday night.  And Angelina lovingly pays tribute to her late mother, Marcheline Bertrand, with the naming of her new daughter.

Actress Bertrand, who Angelina frequently praised as a good mom and friend, died in 2007 after a lengthy battle with ovarian cancer.  Marcheline raised Angelina and her brother, James Haven, on her own after her divorce from Angie's father Jon Voight in 1978.

Bertrand had small roles in movies such as Blake Edwards' 1983 comedy "The Man Who Loved Women." She grew up in Chicago, and according to daughter Angelina Jolie, Bertrand was often wrongly identified as a French actress: "My mom is as far from French Parisian as you can get. She grew up in a bowling alley that my grandparents owned."
