Congrats Sarah and Freddie! That's wonderful news. :)

Welcome to the light of day, Charlotte Grace Prinze! You won the Mom lottery. :D

Pointy | September 23, 01:15 CET

Lovely name. Congratulations.

And you won't hear me saying the kid has Potential. No sir, no sirree.

(ba-dum bum)

filops | September 23, 01:17 CET

"Corn grits" to one of my fave couples. (and I willr esist the temptation to make joke about Charisma's son being torn between two slightly younger women 25 years from now. I...will...resist.)

And, on another site, I just bid little Charlotte Grace "Welmcoe to the world."

I can't make my usual ethnic humor the way I did about Satyana; Freddie's multi-national in ancestry but Smidge isn't.

Yay! Congrats to them :).

zeitgeist | September 23, 01:25 CET

how sweet! Buffy's a mom!

ginalee | September 23, 01:25 CET

Congrats to them :D

Jossfan_21 | September 23, 01:26 CET

Woohoo! Congrats to the two of them!!!

holypotatoes | September 23, 01:26 CET

Congrats! I was just wondering when she was going to have the baby on Sunday morning (had sort of forgotten until then that she was pregnant). I must be psychic... with just a little delay. ;) Interesting she changed her last name, too, didn't know that.

Congrats Sarah! I guess this is the Dawn of a whole new era :)

I slay me.

rocknjosie | September 23, 01:27 CET

Congratulations to them.

Buffyfantic | September 23, 01:33 CET

congrats! and kudos on the perfectly adequate and rather cute name!

okelay | September 23, 01:40 CET

Aww yay! Congratulations to the two of them!

kasadilla | September 23, 01:41 CET

Wonderful news! Congratulations to the happy family!

chazman | September 23, 01:43 CET

Good stuff, congratulations!

Simon | September 23, 01:43 CET

Congratulations! That's a lovely name.

People's coverage? Not so much:

Freddie Prinze Jr. will star on the upcoming season of 24. Sarah Michelle recently changed her last name from Gellar to Prinze.

Would it have killed them to mention The Wonderful Maladys?

ActualSize | September 23, 01:44 CET

Awww... Pretty name. :)

redeem147 | September 23, 01:47 CET

Actually, I also had the feeling Sarah was due to give birth. I knoew it was coming soon.
To ActualSize, I think "Maladys" is still in the pilot stage, but it would have been nice if they did mention it, and her upcoming movie.

impalergeneral | September 23, 01:51 CET

Congratulations!

Knuckleball | September 23, 01:55 CET

Congratulations!!!

Lovely name. :)

sunshineguinn | September 23, 01:56 CET

I was thinking another week myself since she was still out and about on Friday .

"Maladys" still hasn't been greenlit and VDTD to my knowledge doesn't have a USA distributor though it opened in Brazil on Aug 21st

garda39 | September 23, 02:02 CET

Does that make her SMP now? That will take some getting use to.

Congrats to the happy family!

BreathesStory | September 23, 02:04 CET

You guys she still goes by SMG, it's just in her personal life that she goes by Prinze. This all happened a few years ago lol.

holypotatoes | September 23, 02:10 CET

I would have named her "Pomegranate" or "Dweeb Unit" or, you know, "Trixie Doppelganger" - something that screams "I live in Hollywood and I want the world to know it!!"

Oh, allright, "Charlotte Grace" is good if you wanna be boring.

; >

It's a beautiful name. I'm sure she's beautiful.

Welcome, Charlotte Grace, to the world and your loving parents. Have a nice ride.

QuoterGal | September 23, 02:22 CET

"Conga Rats!", delivered by a line of dancing rodents, to everyone involved.

May young Charlotte be as strong and supple as a Willow, and have many happy Summers ahead of her.

Does that make her SMP now?

"Symmetric MultiProcessor" configuration? I think not.

MissKittysMom | September 23, 02:48 CET

"Maladys" still hasn't been greenlit and VDTD to my knowledge doesn't have a USA distributor though it opened in Brazil on Aug 21st

To clarify, it didn't have to be The Wonderful Maladys; it could have been any of her professional accomplishments. The juxtaposition of "he's starring in..."/"she changed her name" bothers me.

But I'm thrilled that the baby is here and everyone is well.

ActualSize | September 23, 02:50 CET

This is wonderful news. Congratulations Mom and Dad!!!!

whedon is GOD | September 23, 03:25 CET

Babeeeee! Congratulations to all three, and a beautiful name.

htom | September 23, 03:34 CET

Congratulations to the new parents! It couldn't happen to a nicer couple.

kmb99 | September 23, 03:49 CET

Congrats. I'm so happy for them, and they picked a lovely name.

FaithFan | September 23, 04:51 CET

Yay! Congrats! I'm so excited and happy for them! Wish them all the best!

Firefly Flanatic | September 23, 05:31 CET

Congratulations! That is one lucky baby!

Valentyn | September 23, 05:45 CET

Aww, sweet! Very nice name - Charlotte is the feminine diminutive of Charles, which means "full-grown, a man" and Grace is inspired by grace, from the Latin gratia (favor, thanks) - Grace means "eloquence or beauty of form, kindness, mercy, favor." So...an eloquent, beautiful woman. Perfect.

So, how's it go, now? Tony's girls are oldest, aren't they? What about James and David's? Then Charisma's, right? Aly, David's second child and now Sarah.

Hmm....

ShadowQuest | September 23, 05:56 CET

Congratulations to the happy couple. All the best in health and happiness for little Charlotte Grace.

Anne 5_by_5 | September 23, 06:22 CET

Congratulations to both of them :)

vampmogs | September 23, 06:46 CET

missb | September 23, 07:40 CET

Congratulations to the parents and welcome to the world Charlotte Grace!

silvius | September 23, 07:49 CET

Congratulations to them both!

Ameer | September 23, 08:07 CET

Charlotte is a lovely name.

Many congratulations to the family!

MonkeyInBlack | September 23, 08:31 CET

I thought she'd only been pregnant for like three months.o_0

Congrats to the family, though.

Gouki | September 23, 09:26 CET

Awww... I'm so happy for them. Congrats to them. :)

Allen Doyle | September 23, 09:40 CET

Lovely news. Congratulations to all three of them.

moley75 | September 23, 10:11 CET

Congratulations to the happy Mum and Dad and to little Charlotte, welcome to the world.

Lovely name too (my Granny's apropos of nothing at all). I like that, in a sense, SMG has spent the last nine months "Full of Grace" ;).

Saje | September 23, 10:34 CET

Congrats, so cool that they've gave her a normal name too.

Gota luv that Buffy | September 23, 11:03 CET

I'm chuffed for them. Welcome to the world Charlotte.

redders | September 23, 11:33 CET

Very beautiful name. Congratulations to Mum & Dad.

The Do That Girl | September 23, 11:35 CET

Congratulations!

marvelknight616 | September 23, 11:53 CET

Congrats to both Sarah and Freddie!

thegingerpire | September 23, 12:30 CET

YAY for a real name! And one I like to boot. Congrats!

Djungelurban | September 23, 14:40 CET

Congratulations Sarah and Freddie! Wonderful news, brought a big grin to my face (also love living in a family of Whedonphiles as both my mum and brother grinned when I told them as well).

QuoterGal said:

I would have named her "Pomegranate"

After Groo's mum?

Leaf | September 23, 14:51 CET

I love the name! I think I remember SMG saying one of her favorite children's books is Charlotte's Web. Yay =)

luv4whedon | September 23, 16:55 CET

Congratulations Sarah and Freddie!
Charlotte is a lovely name (happens to be my middle name)

Welcome Charlotte Grace Prinze :)

Shep | September 23, 17:06 CET

Congratulations! Wishing much happiness in life for Charlotte Grace and her family.

NightOwl | September 23, 19:07 CET

Welcome Welcome Welcome baby Charlotte Prinze!

Jayme | September 23, 19:13 CET

ShadowQuest: Not sure if James's son is older or younger than Kristine's. And there's also Amy and her husband have two, and Liz, Clare, and Iyari one each. As someone pointed out to me a while ago, these people are in their 30s and up, it's more likely they'd have children by now than not. The ones without children are, with some excpetions, the youngest cast members (Mercedes, Eliza, and Michelle, all stil in their 20s) and also those who are (like Mary tyler Moore's husband) more career-oriented rather than family-oriented.

FPJ & SMG & CGP ; has a nice rhythym to it.

DaddyCatALSO | September 23, 19:39 CET

I love that this, as everything the Gellar/Prinze family does, has been kept free of press until their choosing. A warm, hearty congrats to them!

And as far as celebrity kid-naming goes, 'Charlotte Grace' is a simple and lovely choice.

Jav | September 24, 03:57 CET

Aly just Tweeted her congrats a few hours ago. :)
