MEXICO CITY (AP) — It's a boy for Mexican actor Gael Garcia Bernal and Argentine actress Dolores Fonzi.

Garcia Bernal's spokeswoman Icunacury Acosta says the baby is named Lazaro. He was born Thursday in Madrid, Spain.

Acosta said in a statement Monday that the new parents and baby are "very happy, tired and in excellent health."

Garcia Bernal became an international star with the movie "Amores Perros." He also appeared in "The Motorcycle Diaries" and "Babel."

He may soon be arranging play dates with his lifelong friend, Mexican actor Diego Luna. Luna became a dad in August when his wife, Camila Sodi, gave birth to a boy.

Garcia Bernal and Luna appear together in the movies "Y Tu Mama Tambien" and "Rudo y Cursi."

Congrats to them! So, WDYT about the name? I've never heard of it before... Btw, Diego Luna's son is called Jerónimo :>)

Lazaro is a great name...

It's a rather common name in Spanish and Portuguese speaking countries.
I think it's... bah humbug.

Lazaro is a fairly typical name; I know a couple of guys in HS called Lazaro. Usually Laz for short, which... kinda sounds dumb, imho. Sorry, guys.
