Here's a happening Mark Wahlberg can be proud of.
E! News has confirmed the Oscar-nominated actor and fiancée Rhea Durham have settled on a name for their newborn son: Brendan Joseph.
While the couple has yet to officially comment on the birth, a source close to the clan confirmed the baby moniker.
The tyke, the couple's third child together, was born Sept. 16, weighing in at 7 pounds, 10 ounces.
He joins brother Michael, 2, and sister Ella, 4, in the Durham-Wahlberg brood.
Here's hoping that Ella, who, according to her dad, was "extremely disappointed when she found out that we were having a boy," can handle it.
"She already had all these plans of dressing a little sister up in clothes," Wahlberg told Us Weekly, which first reported the birthing news. "But I told her, 'Honey, that means you’ll be more spoiled than the boys.' She goes, 'Oh, daddy, I didn’t think of that!' "
As for the Departed star's plans to tie the knot, he has said that he and the mother of his kids are planning an intimate affair for the summer of 2009.
"She wants to wait until after the baby," Wahlberg, who hits theaters next in the video game-based action thriller Max Payne, told People in June. "We've been very fortunate. We've waited and worked hard to really strengthen our relationship. We want it right."
