Celine Dion Reveals Twins Names: Eddy and Nelson

Days after giving birth to fraternal twin boys,
Celine Dion has announced their names -- Eddy and Nelson,
PEOPLE reports.
Both names are significant for the singer and her husband, Rene Angelil. Eddy is named after Eddy Mornay, the producer who worked on Dion's first five albums.
Mornay was like a father to Dion. "Eddy is a major influence in both Celine and Rene's lives," her rep explained.
Meanwhile, Nelson Mandela was the inspiration for their other son's name. "Rene said that in just the few minutes they were able to spend with him, they were impressed by the human being he is," the rep continued.
"Celine and Rene want their children to be inspired by their names, because they were so inspired by these men," the rep added.
Dion's new sons were born prematurely at 5 lbs., 10 oz., and 5 lbs., 4 oz., respectively, but are healthy. They will reportedly spend a few days in neonatal intensive care, a common procedure for newborn twins, who often arrive before their due date.
At a press conference outside St. Mary's Medical Center, Dion's longtime obstetrician talked about the successful delivery -- and what the babies look like.
Dr. Ronald Ackerman -- whose son, Dr. Joshua Ackerman, also assisted in the delivery -- explained that the surgery to deliver the babies went as expected, with the first boy born at 11:11AM and the second born at 11:12AM. He also said that both babies were born with a "good amount" of hair.

If she has twin daughters, she can name the McDonald and Jennett.
I like it when people name their children something that means something to them. So many people saddle their children with stupid trendy names that will not travel well with them to adulthood. Take Apple for example....

Nelson Eddy? What an azzhole.

You're the azzhole, for thinking that two people are azzholes just because they gave their children names with significance and personal meaning to them. Something that means something close to their heart. You're an idiot and you have no clue whatsoever. So in other words, naming you're child after someone you love and respect makes you an azzhole. You need to be in an institution. Yeah, you're right, name your child "Apple" like Gwyneth Paltrow did or "Moxy CrimeFighter" like Penn from "Penn and Teller" did or "Pilot Inspektor" like the Actor Jason Lee did. That sounds like real meaning there, you moron.
Oh dear! Will the next one, if a girl, be named Jeanette?

I was thinking the same thing! When I'm calling YOOOOOOOOO...
Giovinezza: Whats wrong with the name Jeannette? It just so happens that it was my mothers name. It was on her birth certificate and although she didn't want to be called Jeannette, all her friends and family called her Jeanne. It is a beautiful name and my mother was a gorgeous woman.
thank goodness the names are more or less normal... sick of hearing celebs naming their children atrocious names.... congrats Rene and Celine.

LOL!!! Nelson Eddy (June 29, 1901 - March 6, 1967) was an American singer and movie star who appeared in 19 musical films during the 1930s and 1940s, as well as in opera and on the concert stage, radio, television, and in nightclubs-Wikipedia

Well done, punkin-- I can see Star Trek's "Data" reaching into his memory bank to retrieve that bio just like you did! Most people that had the pleasure of listening to nelson Eddy (AND Jeanette McDonald) are gone, but many of us that remember "real" music (before rock) are still around. I see a few singers are singing ballads now and then, but few sing pure notes (without stylizing). Most anything that can't be "danced" to, or has no guitars or drums whatsoever, are ignored nowadays, and that's a shame. Ever notice how many OTHER kinds of instruments exist--I wonder why?
Well done there old man...problem is that is not the source of the names that they chose. Perhaps some more info on the men that they named the babies after would be more in line????????

This headline is pretty straightforward:
"Celine Dion Reveals Twins Names"
So why are you on here b*tch*ng about "Who cares?"
You could have so easily, after seeing the headline, ignored the story and instead spent your precious time curing cancer or writing a Pulitzer Prize-winning novel.
