Killers frontman Brandon Flowers and his wife, Tana, welcomed their second child into the world last week.

The baby boy is named Gunner and joins older brother Ammon.

Speaking on the new baby name, Flowers explained, "[Gunner] is a tough name. I had to have something that combats against the Flowers."

A rep for the Killers said, "Both baby and parents are healthy and happy."

I don't really like either of the names, they're definitely not my style, but they're not really that bad either. I'm almost convinced that he can do no wrong, so they're both solid.

Makes me think Gun and Ammo/Ammunition.

ETA: Brandon Flowers is the lead singer of The Killers. Their songs include "Somebody Told Me" and "Mr. Brightside"

Gunner is okay when you think of it with a U like in 'put', but when I saw the name Anmmon I couldn't help but think of Ammo, which also kinda ruins the name Gunner. o_O

I don't mind Gunnar (a real name...) but Gunner looks stupid.

I've always been fond of Gunnar, Gunner, Ganner, etc. for whatever reason.
