sorry for the double post but here are more articles *** from entertainmentwise.com Westlife singer Nicky Byrne is celebrating after becoming the father of twin sons yesterday. The 28-year-old had to rush from his band’s gig in Dublin on Thursday night to the city’s Holles Street hospital to be with wife Georgina as she went into labour. However, after witnessing Georgina – daughter of Irish Premier Bertie Ahern - give birth of Rocco and Jay yesterday morning at 9.55am by caesarian section he was back performing with the boys last night. *** from breakingexaminer.ie Taoiseach's daughter gives birth to twins 20/04/2007 - 16:19:28 The Taoiseach's daughter Georgina Ahern has given birth to twin boys. A spokesperson for Georgina's PR company says mother and babies are both doing well, and that a press statement will be issued shortly. The twins are the first grandchildren for Bertie Ahern, who is officially opening a laboratory in Co Kildare this afternoon. Georgina married Westlife star Nicky Byrne at a lavish ceremony in France in July 2003. *** and here's a link where the baby names ''rocco'' and ''jay'' are being talked about www.babynames.com/iboards/index.php?showtopic=543958*** err... well what do the names mean anyway? according to babynamenetwork.com: JAY is an old English/Sanskrit name which means "A bird", and is "Also used as a nickname for Jacob, James and many names" while ROCCO is a Teutonic name which means "to rest" kinda strange for both names, but...oh well... *** now that's a lotta rambling bout the birth of the twins!
