Hunger Games actress Jena Malone welcomes her first baby
And wait till you hear the (rather unusual) baby name...
Lovely news for Hunger Games actress Jena Malone and her musician boyfriend Ethan DeLorenzo, who've just welcomed their first child together! The actress, who plays Johanna Mason in the hit films, couldn't wait to share the happy news of her baby's arrival, and announced their rather unusual choice of name in a sweet Instagram snap.

The black and white pic, which shows the new parents looking lovingly at their newborn, appears alongside a caption from the actress:
'The best weekend of our lives!!! What an incredible blessing to be chosen by this amazing , kind , gentle and beautiful soul to be his parents. Humbled and in complete awe that we get to experience the most ancient and transcendent love that exists.
Thank you Ode Mountain DeLorenzo Malone.'
Jena, 31, is no stranger to sharing a bump pic or two on her Instagram account, including this one that she posted just five weeks ago, at Yosemite.
In fact it was on Instagram that she and boyfriend Ethan, who was a member of Chris Brown's band from 2010 until 2012, first announced that they were expecting.
