Natalie Portman Names Son “Alef”

Natalie Portman and fiancé Benjamin Millepied have picked a name for their new born son and reports say the name is another unique one for another Hollywood elite couple. According to reports the little guys name is Alef.

In the grand scheme of things it’s better than some names that have circulated, most notably Gwyneth Paltrow who named her daughter Apple.

There’s also meaning behind the name, according to those in the know they chose the name because it’s the first letter in the Hebrew language (most commonly spelled Aleph, but alternatively spelled Alef) and Natalie was born in Jerusalem.

At this time the couple’s reps are not confirming the child’s name which was first revealed on Good Evening with Guy Pines.

With the secrecy the couple are keeping around their child even just knowing the confirmed name would be a big win for gossip columns everywhere.
