Justin and Hailey Bieber have officially become parents after welcoming their first child, much to the excitement of fans.
The couple had announced their pregnancy back in May this year, posting a sweet video and a series of photos, with Hailey, 27, dressed in white lace while Justin, 30, cradled her baby bump.
At the time, people were already trying to guess what sort of name they might go for, with many celebs renowned for thinking the wilder and whackier, the better.
"Please don't name the baby after a fruit," one begged - no doubt concerned the 'Peaches' singer might be inspired by his own material.

"Please don't, how would you like to be named like that. It's not cute when they grow up... oh what's your name... and then they say it. And well... just please think first you don't want your kid hating you for it."
But it seems no one needs to worry, as the couple have gone semi-traditional for their son's name, while also giving it a bit of a unique rock 'n' roll twist.
Justin broke the news on Instagram, sharing a close-up snap of the newborn with mum Hailey.

"WELCOME HOME, JACK BLUES BIEBER," he captioned the photo.
Many people were delighted by the heartwarming news, with one commenting: "Ohh yeaaah it's Baby Bieber."
Someone else wrote: "Omg my heart is melting, congrats."
The pair have previously spoken about their desire to become parents, with Justin previously telling Ellen DeGeneres in 2020: "I'm going to have as many as Hailey is wishing to push out.

“I'd love to have myself a little tribe, but it's her body and whatever she wants to do."
When asked when that time might be, Justin added: "There's not really an issue, but I think Hailey still has some things she wants to accomplish as a woman.
"And I think she just is not ready yet, and I think that's OK."

Hailey also discussed her thoughts on her pregnancy in an interview earlier this year with W Magazine.
When talking about how it won't just be the two of them anymore, she said: "In the beginning [of pregnancy], it was super emotional for me. Like, ‘I love this human so much.
"How can I possibly bring someone else into this?’
"I’m trying to soak in these days of it being Justin and me, just the two of us.”

The Rhode founder once expressed her desire to raise her family out of the spotlight – something her own parents, Stephen and Kennya Baldwin, did.
However, she’s accepted that the attention is ‘probably totally unavoidable’.
“That was before I was married,” she told GQ. “Didn’t know who I was going to be married to at the time, I’m sure.
“Maybe I liked the idea at 18 of not raising kids around certain things, but my life is so different now than it was when I was 18.
“It’s so hard to say what I’m going to do or not do when there isn’t even a child here yet. I don’t even know what it feels like to be a parent other than a dog parent yet.
"And that’s not the same thing, by any means.”
