From AJC online:
[NEW YORK — Grammy-winning singer Erykah Badu gave birth to a daughter, Puma, earlier this month at her home in Dallas, with friends and family present, People magazine reported Thursday.
The baby was born on July 5, Badu's publicist confirmed to the magazine. Badu, 33, has declined to name the father. "She is a big baby," Badu's representative was quoted as saying.
Puma joins brother, Seven, 6, whose father is Andre Benjamin (Andre 3000 of the hip-hop group OutKast).
Badu's publicist told People that Puma isn't named for the athletic shoe: "Erykah is more down to earth than that. It's more likely that the name has meaning, that it's something natural."
The singer's latest album, "Worldwide Underground," was released in 2003]
Is it me, but Im really not feeling the name Puma, and I thought that the baby daddy was that west coast rapper the DOC.
Okay I though that the baby daddy was Common but that shows how far out the loop I am. Any ways Puma is a name that needed some thought before being used really. But hey Erika badu will realize when her daughter is in counseling or something like that
Didnd't even know she was having another one. Why can't she name her kids anything NORMAL.... bout like Toni Branxton naming hers Denim. Seven and his baby sister Puma...roll call in school is going to be HELL for them.
