John Stamos Reveals His Baby's Name, Explains Why He Chose It

Yesterday, Khloe Kardashian made some big news by revealing that she had named her baby with Tristan Thompson True, but she wasn't the only celebrity to announce a baby name. John Stamos unveiled one as well, alongside a photo of his adorable newborn on Instagram. 

The 54-year-old Stamos and his wife, 37-year-old Vampire Diaries actress Caitlin McHugh, got marred in February after two years together and now, they are proud parents. The man famous for being an uncle on Full House tweeted out the first photo of his newborn and in the caption, he introduced the world to little Billy Stamos, whom he named after his father.  

The caption also read, "From now on, the best part of me will always be my wife and son." He hashtagged it #NotJustAnUncleAnymore and #Overjoyed.

Stamos previously told People that he "always wanted to be a dad." He had a pretty good role model too and it's not surprising that they named their child to honor John's father, who passed away in 1989 but who Stamos always looked up to. He told People, "You know how you put your father on a pedestal, and he's a superhero, and then as you grow older you go, 'Ah, he's just a man?' I never got to that point. Til the day he died, he was just bigger than life for me."

John previously posted a photo of his father with the caption, "I will certainly fall short of the father my pop was, but I'm going to give it my all."

Caitlin has no doubts about John's abilities. She said, "I greatly admire his originality, creativity, ambition, work ethic and humor - all qualities I'm sure he'll pass down to his child. He's always been wonderful with kids, and I’m sure he will be an amazing father."

No word on when the baby was born or how much he weighed, but keep your eye out for more photos of little Bill here
