It's on the web now so here is the electronic version New arrival ... Damien Leith and wife Eileen before the birth of Jagger Ramone. Photo: Edwina Pickles Rockin' name for Idol boy Christine Sams June 4, 2007 He is a newborn baby with a rock'n'roll name, courtesy of his Australian Idol dad. Damien Leith and his wife Eileen Stapleton have welcomed the arrival of their second son, Jagger Ramone. Jagger, who is a little brother for Jarvis (are we sensing a musical theme here?) was born in Sydney on Wednesday, with his parents proudly attributing two iconic bands - the Rolling Stones and the Ramones - for their son's distinctive name. The couple, who live in Sydney's inner west, were overjoyed at the healthy arrival of their baby boy, in what has been an extraordinary year for Leith and his family. The singer, who dominated the No.1 spot earlier this year with a compilation release from Australian Idol, plans to release his proper debut solo album on July 29. Final tracks have been selected for the album, which industry insiders are predicting will be one of the biggest releases of the year. The first single is titled 22 Steps and will be delivered to radio at the end of this month. Leith wrote several tracks himself and co-wrote others with Alex Lloyd. The pair have been working together for a number of months. Leith is settling into life with his newborn boy before beginning promotional duties for his solo release.

I wonder if this is an "official" release of the name given that Damien couldn't tell us on Friday night?

To be honest it's going to take a little getting use to for me, as I'm not a fan of either band! But that hardly matters!

Yes I agree Cousin Friday, it is a unique name and I think it will take a while for me to get used to it.

While on the subject of rockin' names, here's a treat for you. (Futile attempt to stay on topic!) It's a film clip from the other Jarvis - this is HILARIOUS Don't Let Him Waste Your Time
