Jurassic World actor Brian Tee has welcomed his first child with his wife, actress Mirelly Taylor.
The couple are proud parents to a baby girl, who weighed in at 6lbs 8oz and measured 19 inches long.
Naming their little bundle of joy Madelyn Skyler Tee, the pair admitted that they originally planned to name her Brielly – a hybrid of their two names:
“We were actually thinking of naming her Brielly from inception. We loved it! So typical coming from two actors.
“But we thought better, dreaming of the day when she’s 13 years old, coming at us with a, ‘Really guys? … Really?! You really hybrid-ed your names and named me Brielly?’ So Madelyn Skyler (MadSky) was born and is the magical miracle of our lives.”
The new parents said they chose Madelyn after learning the name stood for “elegance, grace, leadership, power, strength and beauty.”
Although they plan to nickname her Brielly affectionately, the couple said that they already see a funny similarity between daddy and daughter:
“First thing we noticed is Madelyn has Daddy’s eyebrows.”
Tee will star as Shreddar in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2, due to be released next year, while his wife has recently starred in three independent film projects.
