Celebrity baby name: Ever Gabo

Actress Milla Jovovitch, 31, and her fiancé, filmmaker Paul Anderson, 42, welcomed their first child — a baby girl — two days ago. They named their daughter Ever Gabo.

According to Milla’s blog:

the name Ever is a scottish boy’s name, Paul has scottish blood in him (not to mention two tartans in his family!) so we wanted to give her a name that reflected her “celtic” roots, while her middle name Gabo -pronounced “Gabeau”- is a mixture of my parents names! the first two letters are after my mom’s first name, Galina and the last two letters are after my dad’s first name Bogie!
