Matthew McConaughey Names Son Levi

Matthew McConaughey and his girlfriend Camila Alves have revealed the name of their baby boy to OK! magazine: Levi Alves McConaughey.

Matthew named the baby after himself, in a way, telling OK!, "Levi was another name for the apostle Matthew in the Bible. They were, in fact, two names for the same person."

"Our son was born at 6:22 pm," Matthew goes on to say, "and this particular time represents my favorite verse in the book of Matthew in the Bible: 'If thy eye be single, thy whole body will be full of light.'"

The proud new parents, who welcomed little Levi on Monday, also released this statement to OK!: "We welcome Levi Alves McConaughey into this wonderful life and look forward to living in it with him. In the mean time and all times, just keep livin'."
