LOS ANGELES — It's another boy for Colin Farrell.

A spokeswoman for the 33-year-old actor said Friday that Farrell and actress Alicja Bachleda welcomed son Henry Tadeusz Farrell on Oct. 7. The couple met while filming "Ondine."

Farrell has a 6-year-old son, James Padraig Farrell, with model Kim Bordenave. Farrell won a Golden Globe earlier this year for his role as a hit man in "In Bruges."

WDYT of his name choices?

Neither of the middle names are my style, but I just assume that they are legit names that are kind of out of the norm for where I live and he had reasons for picking them.

I don't care too much for James, I don't really dislike it either, but I like Henry a lot.

I do like these names a lot. I know that Padraig is legit, and I've never heard of Tadeusz (it sounds like a variation of Thaddeus to me, though), but I like it.

I'm pretty sure it's Polish. I had a Polish roommate and that was her dad's name, though he went by Ted since no one in the US could pronouce Tadeusz.

It is Polish, my husband's dad's middle name was Tadeusz (and he was Polish). His first name was Janek. In English he was John Thaddeus.

The middle names are weird, but his kids are James and Henry. It's nice to see something so normal on a celebrity child.

Henry and James are good, solid names and go well together but then again, I also immediately think of Henry James.

I like the middle names, but the dude gets major points for giving his sons really classy first names and saving the hard-to-spell/pronounce stuff for their middle names.

I love the name James! And my boyfriend's name is Padraig. :D I don't care for the name Henry and I don't know about Tadeusz.

Alicja Bachleda is Polish so Tadeusz is probably her choice. Her first big movie was called 'Pan Tadeusz'.
