Brangelina's Twins Have Arrived!

Posted by Amy S.F. Lutz

Dr. Michel Sussman, Angelina Jolie's OB/GYN, has confirmed that Jolie delivered her twins by C-section Saturday night - and the twins are not both girls, as many media reports had previously stated.

Knox Leon (5.03 lbs.) and Vivienne Marcheline (5 lbs.) were born at about 8:00 pm at the Lenval Hospital in Nice, with their famous dad in attendance.  The operation had been scheduled for a later date, but had been moved up for what Dr. Sussman described as "medical reasons."  He didn't elaborate, but said Jolie and the babies were all doing well.  They're expected to stay in the hospital for a several more days.

Vivienne Marcheline is apparently named in honor of Jolie's mom, Marcheline Bertrand, who died last year.

If you can't wait to see photos of the babes, you shouldn't have to wait long - reports say that Brad and Angelina have already sold the rights to the first pictures to a U.S. publication for millions of dollars, which they're donating to charity.  

Congratulations!

You know, I love Vivienne, but I'm not loving Knox. It's fine, but isn't that too close to Maddox?

Congrats to them for having healthy twins, though!

I totally forgot about Pax. Good golly, what is her thing with X names? Maddox, Pax, Knox. Ick! They're decent names separately, but a mess together.

Yeah, I think they are obviously going for an X in each of the boys names, but Knox really is horrible. I love Maddox and Pax, but totally can't stand Knox. They could've been more creative. Why not Xanadu?! Xan for short......

The first thing I thought:  Johnny Knoxville.  Followed by:  Fort Knox.  

Really, though, added to Maddox and Pax, Knox makes them sound like characters in a Seuss book.

It's great.  I can't wait to see the photo's of their babies.  I don't really care about their names, I mean, it's the right of the parents to name their kids, and really, Knox is as bad as 4real, superman, or Ima Whore so at least Angie and Brad aren't THAT messed up.  I'm so glad that they're donating the millions to charity.  I don't care what the haters say, in my mind, they are both great individuals.

Sorry, I meant to say that Knox is NOT as bad as 4real, or superman, or Ima Whore.
