Matthew McConaughey revealed to OK! Magazine that he and girlfriend Camilla Alves named their newborn son Levi Alves McConaughey. Camilla gave birth to Levi yesterday in Los Angeles.
Explaining how they came up with the name for their baby boy, Matthew tells OK!, “Levi was another name for the apostle Matthew in The Bible. They were, in fact, two names for the same person.
“Our son was born at 6:22 pm, and this particular time represents my favorite verse in the book of Matthew in The Bible: ‘If thy eye be single, thy whole body will be full of light.’”
Baby Levi’s middle name is taken directly from his mother Camila’s last name. “We wanted to incorporate her family name,” explains the proud new father.
Matthew has a brother named “Rooster,” (no, I’m not kidding) and I was really hoping they would name the kiddo after Matthew’s awesome brother. Oh well.
