Justin Bieber and Hailey Baldwin-Bieber have welcomed their first child. They welcomed baby boy Jack Blues Bieber on Friday. Thoughts on the name? Growing up, I didn’t know any Jacks, but that’s changed over time. People name their sons “John” and call him Jack, or they just flat-out make their son’s legal name Jack or Jackson or Jax or whatever. It feels super-common these days and I’m sure Jack Bieber will have several classmates named Jack or Jackson. People Mag says there’s an important thing happening with the initials too:
Justin and Hailey Bieber are keeping their family name alive! On Friday, Aug. 23, the couple announced the arrival of their baby boy, Jack Blues Bieber — continuing a sweet Bieber family tradition of naming him with the initials ‘JB.’
“WELCOME HOME JACK BLUES BIEBER,” Juston, 30, wrote in a post on Instagram while sharing a close-up shot of the baby’s foot. Hailey, 27, reshared the post on her Instagram Stories as she added a bear and blue heart emoji.
The family tradition of naming their son with the initials ‘JB’ is one that has continued in Justin’s side of the family for a couple of generations now, as the singer has the same initials, along with his dad, Jeremy Bieber, and some of his siblings.
Justin’s half-sister Jazmyn Bieber, 16, and half-brother, Jaxon Bieber, 14, also have the same initials. Both siblings are the children of Jeremy and his ex Erin Wagner.
The singer also named his son Jack after his father’s middle name in another sentimental tribute.
Justin’s dad Jeremy and mom Pattie Mallette, split a few months before he was born in 1994.
Thoughts on the father giving every child his initials? The Duggars do that. Jim-Bob Duggar’s children all have J-names. If you’re stuck on choosing a J-name, why not Jacob, Julian or Jasper? I don’t know. Anyway, I’m happy for Hailey and Justin. I hope the delivery went well and mother and baby are okay. I hope Justin commits himself to being a hands-on father and a supportive husband too. I also hope he doesn’t pressure her to have another baby right away.

Congratulations to the couple. Health & happiness to the baby & to the little family.
Aww happy for these two! And personally, i quite like the fact that a celebrity couple chose a normal name for their baby.
Jack is a great name.
It is short, chippy and cheerful yet big enough for it to grow from boy to man.
Better that than naming him after the satellite of a long lost planet or something.
Had completely forgotten she was pregnant. Congratulations!
Congratulations to them!
I love the name Jack. It’s traditional and classic but still fun and cute.
She seems like a caretaker personality and I wish her all the joy in the world with her sweet baby. Justin seems like a needy child so I hope he’s not going to be jealous or demanding. Goddess save us all from maladjusted child-men.
I think even the best of guys feel some jealousy when they are a distant second in the early days of parenting. It’s challenging for both moms and dads. But they have the resources to get help when they need it.
Sending positive thoughts their way and wishing them and Baby Jack all the best!
Cute name, cute toes! I’m sure she’ll be a good mom. Had lots of practice with Justin (ha ha).
Permit me to be a little bitchy? Those nails are ugh both because of the dirt and germs that gets under long nails, and also because of the risk of poking the poor babe. When my son was tiny, I accidentally scratched his forehead with my fingernail and he still has a tiny scar. I feel guilty every time I look at it!
Congrats to them.
I don’t care what anyone says – I’m rooting for this family.
Congrats to them. I like Jack, it’s traditional and modern.
Many authors name their tough male characters Jack. Especially with a cop /military type story. It’s short and strong I guess is why. I’ve never really worked out why Jack especially gets that treatment.
Welcome little one! 💕
I never used to like Justin but he seems to be a nice husband to her and hope he’ll be a good dad as well. They seem like a nice couple.
Jack is a great name. Who cares what they name their kid anyway? At least he has a real name and not something like pilot inspektor
I always found it odd that Kylie Jenner didn’t name her son Jacques ‘Jack’. Travis Scott’s real name is Jacques Webster II.
