Josh Holloway, my favorite bad boy from Lost, and his wife welcomed a baby girl on April 9th. Josh and Yessica had announced the pregnancy last year, and everyone on Lost was really excited to welcome an “island baby”. A source close to the actor confirmed to People Magazine that everyone was healthy and happy following the birth. Josh and Yessica named their first child Java Kumala Holloway.

Lost heartthrob Josh Holloway and wife Yessica welcomed a daughter on April 9 in Oahu, PEOPLE has exclusively confirmed. They named their baby girl Java Kumala Holloway.

“Dad and Mom are absolutely thrilled,” a source close to the actor, 39, tells PEOPLE. “Everyone’s happy and healthy.” This is the first child for the couple, who have been married since 2004.

Holloway’s Lost costar Daniel Dae Kim knew the actor would enjoy fatherhood. “He’ll be an incredible dad,” Kim told PEOPLE in February. “When you talk to him about his baby, his face completely lights up.”

I’m not sure about the name Java Kumala. It has the sound both of Hawaiian influences, and Yessica’s Asian roots. In any case, Java’s not the worst name… she won’t be picked on too badly, as far as celebrity baby names go.

Josh and Yessica have been together for years – she was with him when he was a struggling actor, taking odd-jobs on the side. I’ve seen him talk about his wife in interviews, and he just adores her. They’ll both make great parents, so congratulations to the happy family!
