M.I.A.'s baby-naming book might have been, well, M.I.A. the day her son was born.
The British-born Sri Lankan rapper has, according to Latina, revealed the name of her three-week-old son, and it was definitely worth the wait: The "Paper Planes" singer has named her firstborn Ickitt.
(Fingers crossed the 31-year-old and her indie rocker beau, The Exit frontman Benjamin Bronfman, use the nickname "Kitt," not "Icky.")
M.I.A., whose real name is Mathangi "Maya" Arulpragasam, welcomed the tyke just days after performing at the Grammys.
Little Ickitt now jumps to the head of the moniker-challenged star kid pack, joining the unforgettable Pilot Inspektor (papa Jason Lee), Audio Science (mama Shannyn Sossamon), Moxie CrimeFighter (papa Penn Jillette), Kal-El Coppola (Superman-loving papa Nicolas Cage), and Bronx Mowgli (Disney-buff 'rents Pete Wentz and Ashlee Simpson-Wentz).
