Bennifer 2.0's Baby Name Revealed!

Filed under: Ben Affleck > Baby Blabber > Jennifer Garner

stll-love-u.jpg

Almost a week later, Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck have revealed the name of Violet's little sister.

CLICK HERE to find out! And yes, it involves a flower!

Their baby is named Seraphina Rose Elizabeth Affleck.

While no explanation for the name was given, Seraphina is "derived from the Biblical word 'seraphim,' which was Hebrew in origin and meant 'fiery ones.'"

That's quite a name to saddle a little one with!

They should have just called her Rose!

    sera…phina…ew



  2. 102

    Celebs and their fucking reDONKulous names. They should just move into a two family in Cambridge, MA and quit the Hollywood scene… both kids can go to BB&N and life can be normal for them. Hope the new one is a bit more "prettier" than V.



  3. 103

    I can't believe they stole my baby name!!! I had this one picked out for years. Damn it!!! Now I have to go back to looking. *grump*



  4. 104

    AWWWWW! I love Jen Garner and Violet and I wish them the best joys and happiness this life has to give. AWWWWW!



  5. 105

    My kids have the Barbie "Princess and the Pauper" movie, the cat's name is Seraphina! HAHA Maybe she stole it from Barbie! Hope this kid is cuter then Violet!



  6. 106

    i love the name Seraphina, its my conformation name! gorgeous



  7. 107

    I think Seraphina is the name of barbie in the Barbie ballet dvd. Maybe Violet had a hand in naming the new baby…hmmmm

  8. assie says – reply to this


    108

    no. unacceptable.



  9. 109

    That's cute, there was a seraphina in the golden compass lol she was a witch



  10. 110

    Re: BBBoricua loves Angels & Demons – No I wish I did .I live
    in shitty Md.



  11. 111

    Re: Mar-Mar9Mex – wtf? what would compel you to post a comment saying that you think a child is "so fugly"?? You are pathetic. Violet is adorable. End of story.



  12. 112

    Not that bad…they can call her Sera for short



  13. 113

    I love it! I loved the name Violet as well. They are both very pretty names.



  14. 114

    violet - cute.

    Seraphina - stupid.



  15. 115

    Cute but long… hopefully they'll give her a cute nickname like Phina, not Sera



  16. 116

    completely awesome name!



  17. 117

    They should have called her Lily or Rose….not a fan of the Seraphina vibe…but really people…to each their own. The real issue is another miracle has been born to 2 loving parents…so yay!



  18. 118

    what the…



  19. 119

    Well at least Violet has a normal name.



  20. 120

    Seraphina?? WTF? That sounds disgusting, I like Rose..that's my middle name.



  21. 121

    Re: the last star – Come on, is not that shitty! I drive by it on my way to visit my bro!!



  22. 122

    Whats the problem here? She should have named her Latrina or Shanaqua like some creatures do?



  23. 123

    dats WEAKSAUCE!!! WTF r these stars thinking! poor kids



  24. 124

    Eww that's just awful. Why not just Rose or Elizbeth?



  25. 125

    Seraphina is beautiful classic name… I like that they used it… and Violet is flipping adorable….



  26. 126

    awww, I like the name. At least they didn't name that child something stupid like most celebs do these days.



  27. 127

    Wasnt Sarafina the name of a play or some sort of movie at one time?



  28. 128

    Rose is boring, I think the name is cute :)



  29. 129

    Seraphina? God, please just call her Rose and call it a day… Good God.



  30. 130

    It's actually not a bad name, especially in comparison. I feel for her when she starts kindergarden and has to learn to write that mouthful.



  31. 131

    Well, at least I've never heard of this name before and it's orginal not like Queen Elizabeth and all the other stupid names.



  32. 132

    I like it! Although, it would have been adorable to name her Rose. Violet and Rose would have been adorable names for sisters!!!!!



  33. 133

    I think that Seraphina is a lovely name! It's something very different to all of the recent celeb baby names but in a nice way. It flows well with Violet too. Vi looks like the sweetest kid so I can't wait to see Bennifer 2.0!!



  34. 134

    i like ittt.



  35. 135

    wtf?

    I thought a seraphim was a form of angel…whatever - good luck in school as you are made fun of because of your name



  36. 136

    why is sexy ben affleck with fugly ass jennifer garner…? Please help me understand.

  37. Aggie says – reply to this


    137

    Seraphina is one of my middle names! I like it!



  38. 138

    Re: Mar-Mar9Mex – As long as she isn't as disgusting as you she'll be ok….



  39. 139

    Re: smitten Kitten – Ummmm…maybe because it isn'tthe rest of the worlds baby????? What a completely stupid post!



  40. 140

    it's better than APPLE



  41. 141

    Re: hopes z
    That'd be interesting…!



  42. 142

    Sounds like a stripper name, sorry:(
    I thought they would have picked something normal to go with VIOLET, (so pretty)

  43. Wrenn says – reply to this


    143

    Yuk…Violet is bad enough (makes me think of Violate…which sounds perverted). Serafina?? Gag…and Rose just makes me think of an old woman.



  44. 144

    original without being lame like "pilot inspektor" lmaoo



  45. 145

    rose is boring and done to death. seraphina is very pretty.



  46. 146

    Seraphina is actually quite a lovely name. Congrats once again to Jennifer.



  47. 147

    its unusual but not un heard of i know someone called seraphina



  48. 148

    cute…



  49. 149

    seraphine sounds horrible but rose is ok



  50. 150

    I actually like this name.



  51. 151

    awwww so presh



  52. 152

    Seraphina is a nice name.
    It's actually kinda old school.
    She might end up going with Sera or Rose later on in life. I know my name is odd and complicated (not to mention everyone pronounces it wrong) so I ended up making a nickname.



  53. 153

    Yay. Thats lovely. Im sure she will be as precious as Violet.



  54. 154

    Blarg, hate it.



  55. 155

    [re=3307974]Re: Rose

  56. leo32 says – reply to this


    156

    I'm hoping they'll call her Fi (as in Fiona) - or Sera (as in Sarah)
    Because Seraphina is an atrocity. Gosh I really had my hopes up that they'd choose something normal. I actually think Elizabeth or Rose is MUCH better. Well, my parents changed my name when I was three months old so maybe there is still hope if they get all this kind of feedback!!!



  57. 157

    Woohoo so guessed the Rose part….or Daisy, but definitely not Hyacinth! lol ;) Maybe they watch "Keeping Up Appearances" too. hahaha

  58. lolli says – reply to this


    158

    lol, I agre, why not just Rose. sheesh.



  59. 159

    I actually don't think it's a bad name. it's different enough without being stupid like other celebrity baby names.. example: Sunday Rose… wtf is that?



  60. 160

    i actually worked with someone named serafina and we all called her sera..it's not an uncommon name..c'mon don't give jen and ben that much credit they're not that creative..that name has obviously been out there..plus i think it's prettier than just naming her sarah



  61. 161

    I think it's lovely to see kids these days going back to the names that were popular when I was a little girl.



  62. 162

    i know a couple girls named serefina/serafina/seraphina. most go by serry/seri/serrie… it's a cute name.



  63. 163

    I woulda named her Snapdragon Affleck



  64. 164

    i don't like the seraphina part, it sounds really stupid
    but the other part is kinda nice



  65. 165

    Agreed - why add the Seraphina? It's like there is a comp to see which celebrity can come up with the worst name post Moon-Unit… !

  66. amys says – reply to this


    166

    Seraphina is the name of the cat in Barbie's Princess and the Pauper.



  67. 167

    gag.



  68. 168

    wtfffffffffffff

    ugly as usual :S
    and i knew it would be rose.

    psychic's ftw -___-

    predictable!!



  69. 169

    That's a loborious name. Violet will have an infiority complex now…that her name is simpler, but I'd say…sweeter.



  70. 170

    How can you say that!!?? Violet is adorable!!!!



  71. 171

    hey, my name's syarafina, and it's pronounced almost exactly like "seraphina"!



  72. 172

    Whoever said Violet is ugly, you are terrible. I think she is adorable!! She reminds me a lot of my toddler. I know several normal people with long names. Most people don't even know that their names are long and complicated. Usually one of the names will stick and that is what they go by. I think traditional every day names are so cliche'. I mean who wants to have 4 of you in your 1st grade class. I grew up with a very common name and I for one did not like it. I'm a Jennifer. I don't remember having a class in grade school or working some place as an adult where I was the only Jen, Jenny, Jennifer…. Some times there are so many you have to go by your last name, not cool. To the point I think the name is great.



  73. 173

    Mar-Mar9Mex, to say that about a child just shows you are a purebred ass hole.



  74. 174

    Lol not even a week born and her parents already hate her… ironically this one will be better looking than "I can't walk by myself" Violet…



  75. 175

    Re: ItalianBella08 – I did and I still think that Violet is fugly… next???

  76. zoey says – reply to this


    176

    Re: BabyLuv

    You are hilarious ! LOL



  77. 177

    YEAH, I BET YOUR ONE HOT PIECE OF ASS, RIGHT?? THAT'S WHY YOU GOT A FUCKIN' FLAG AS YOUR DEFAULT, YOUR THE FUCKIN' UGLY ONE ASSHOLE! THIS IS A BEAUTIFUL LITTLE GIRL, AND YOU ARE JUST JEALOUS BECAUSE YOU WISH YOU LOOKED THAT CUTE AS A KID OR EVEN AS AN ADULT! HAHAHAHA…DIRTBAG!!



  78. 178

    Re: PinkMartinii – Because she keeps on popping fugly babies… i know hard to understand but reality bites…



  79. 179

    What's up with people giving their kids 2-3 middle names?



  80. 180

    bella! Italiano! BUENO!



  81. 181

    She sure looks like her mommy.



  82. 182

    I like the name… could've named her lilly or just rose tho.



  83. 183

    I'd drop the "Seraphina". Rose Elizabeth is a beautiful name.



  84. 184

    To celebrate the name Seraphina I recommend reading Dean Koontz: From the Corner Of His Eye.
    Lovely story. Great characters. Never can get enough of quantum physics mind scramble. Must read

  85. Paty says – reply to this


    185

    Seraphina is awful!!!! :P



  86. 186

    Eh,thats not to odd



  87. 187

    when i read yes it involves a flower rose was the first name that came to mind.

  88. AMO says – reply to this


    188

    Obviously Ben has no say in what their kid's names are. I hope not anyway…



  89. 189

    nice ring



  90. 190

    I love that name!



  91. 191

    Seraphina is a beautiful name!
    Hopefully she's as cute as her older sister :]



  92. 192

    i really like the name seraphina because it's just so angelic



  93. 193

    Yeah its too much.

  94. Kll01 says – reply to this


    194

    it could have been worse….what ever happened to normal names like….jennifer and ben….????



  95. 195

    serafina is italian forr sarahh..



  96. 196

    Awww, 2 little flowers:Violet and Rose



  97. 197

    WHY??? I mean.. i was just accepting Violet's name..UGH! Peole can be so weird..they name their kids like they name they're pets..



  98. 198

    violet is not ugly she is really pretty and a real cutie unlike FAMEWHORE suri AND HER PARENTS. Violet is not an alien either.



  99. 199

    i feel sorry for celebrity children :(

    they're gonna get asses kicked in school for those names.



  100. 200

    I like it - children have to be given special names - but not stupid ones!
