Fantasia Barrino's Christmas just got all the merrier.

The Grammy-winning singer welcomed a son today, her second child, at Presbyterian Hospital in North Carolina, Barrino's rep confirms to E! News.

And we've got a name for you...

Dallas Xavier Barrino arrived at 5:14 p.m. ET, weighing 7 pounds, 9 ounces, and measuring 21 inches long.

Guess we've all had Dallas on the brain lately!

"I feel so blessed that my son Dallas Xavier was born healthy, and is a wonderful new addition to our family," Barrino tells E! News. "I thank all my fans for their well wishes and continued support."

Barrino hasn't commented recently on whether she and baby daddy Antwaun Cook, who was married when he started seeing the American Idol winner, are still together.

"I'm really not focusing on that today," the Grammy winner, who was on bed rest, told Wendy Williams over the phone in October. "My name is all I have and my word is my bond."

Barrino also has a 10-year-old daughter named Zion.
