Matthew McConaughey Baby’s Name Is …

Matthew McConaughey and his girlfriend Camila Alves have named their new baby boy Levi Alves McConaughey. Matthew explains how the couple came up with Levi’s name:

"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."

Matthew and Camila also released the following statement:

"We welcome Levi Alves McConaughey into this wonderful life and look forward to living in it with him. In the mean time and all times, just keep livin’."
