Congratulations are in order!

Kelsey Grammer and wife Kayte Grammer welcomed a baby boy Monday, Nov. 14, E! News confirms. Auden James Ellis Grammer delivered weighing 7 pounds and was 21 inches long.

"The name was chosen to honor the great poet W.H. Auden and James is after another great poet and singer James Taylor—two of our favorites," the couple explained in a statement. Ellis was the Frasier alum's great grandfather's name on his mother's side. "He was a colorful character to say the least and we wanted to give the name a second chance."
