Welcome Knox Leon and Vivienne Marcheline!
Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie welcomed healthy twins on Saturday night at Fondation Lenval hospital in Nice, France–a boy named Knox Leon Jolie-Pitt and a girl named Vivienne Marcheline Jolie-Pitt.
Vivienne is the French form of Vivian, which reflects her place of birth. Her middle name was chosen as a nod to her late grandmother, Marcheline Bertrand (Angelina’s mother who lost a battle with ovarian cancer). Knox was the middle name of Brad’s maternal grandfather (His mom was James Etta Hillhouse, her father was Hal Knox Hillhouse). Leon is the name of Angelina’s great-great grandfather.
To add fuel to the fire, Brad and Angelina’s attorneys at law firm, Lavely & Singer, snatched up all domain name combinations of the twins’ names mere hours ago. Here are all of the ones taken so far:

Thanks Nike.
I kind of thought the hospital might have released a false date for the scheduled C-section (they said it would be this coming Tuesday) to throw the papzs off the track. Smart of them if they did.

NICE (AFP) - Hollywood star Angelina Jolie has given birth to healthy twins, a girl and a boy, in the French Riviera maternity clinic she has checked into, the Nice-Matin newspaper reported Sunday quoting her gynaecologist.
The twins, Knox Leon and Vivienne Marcheline, were born shortly before 8:00 pm (1800 GMT) on Saturday, the paper said quoting gynaecologist Michel Sussmann.
Jolie is fine after having a Caesarian section, it added.
Knox Leon was reported to weigh 2.27 kilogrammes (five pounds) and Vivienne Marcheline 2.28 kilogrammes (5.02 pounds).
The babies’ first photograph was sold to a US paper for 11 million dollars (6.9 million euros), Nice-Matin said, adding that the money would be given to a humanitarian cause.
A source close to the clinic had said earlier the birth was expected in mid-August.
The twins brought 33-year-old Jolie’s brood with partner Brad Pitt to six.

Pitt was seen entering Nice’s Santa Maria clinic, part of the Lanval hospital on the seafront Promenade des Anglais, on July 2 with at least two of their children.
A spokesperson for Lanval could not immediately be reached Sunday morning to confirm the report.
Jolie and Pitt, 44, have been the subject of celebrity gossip fascination since they met on the set of their 2005 film “Mr and Mrs Smith.”
Dubbed “Brangelina,” they have adopted three children: Maddox, six, born in Cambodia; four-year-old Pax, born in Vietnam; and Zahara, three, born in Ethiopia.
They also had a biological child, Shiloh, born in Namibia, in May 2006.
The pair, who frequently top magazine lists of the world’s most beautiful people or couple, set up home in May in a chateau they rented from an American acquaintaince in France’s Provence region.
Pitt was previously married to “Friends” star Jennifer Aniston, while Jolie has been married twice before.
wow. there’s a “festive” feeling in the air :)
wow. there’s a “festive” feeling in the air :)
Neither Angelina nor Brad have a publicist at the time.
They both have managers.
Anyone waiting for confirmation from a publicist will be waiting forever as that is impossible.
This seems true to me. Family names and a boy and a girl.
Welcome to the world little ones.
bla blah @ 07/13/2008 at 1:18 am
Is this from the hospital’s website??
*********************************************
No. This is from the Sunday (today) edition of Nice-Matin.
Ok even though People hasn’t confirmed it. I think its true since non tabloids are reporting it.
i’m dancing in excitement.
Congrats, Angelina and Brad! I wish you all the happiness in the world!
I do believe these reports are true.
I am so happy for Brad and Angelina.
May God bless them always.
Goodnight!
If the birth news is true this time, congratulations is in order for Angie & Brad. I hope everything is all right with Angie & the twins. Regarding the choice of names, i think they are NICE SOUNDING names plus the fact they are RARELY used. I like UNIQUE names & have POSITIVE EQUIVALENT MEANINGS. NOT CHEESY OR NOT “HOLLYWOODish” sound names. Angie is not known for giving names to her children that has no significant meaning/ relation to their lives. Thus, the names KNOX LEON & VIVIENNE MARCHELINE are just appropriate to them.
Tijen @ 07/13/2008 at 1:45 am I do believe these reports are true.
I am so happy for Brad and Angelina.
May God bless them always.
Goodnight!
===========================
I believe too !!!
Congratulations, Brad ,Angie , and the newborn babies. The Jolie-Pitts will always be in my prayers.
BRINGING OVER FROM THE PREVIOUS THREAD:
Magnolia @ 07/12/2008 at 3:55 pm #718
I don’t think I have enjoyed a movie that much since well Mr and Mrs Smith, it was hot, with a great message.
I love this woman, the director said that Angelina cut alot of her lines.
She explained later that she just felt the character worked better with less being said.
When I frist read that I was kinda bummed, like she cut her lines?
You mean less Jolie?? I wasn’t really okay with her playing secound fiddle to James Mcvoy altho I think is an incredible talent.
After watching the movie tho I totally understand why she did it. Less is definently more with this character(fox) and she delivered and incredible preformance.
I loved how she was supposed to be a bad azz with very little emotion but Angie’s sweetness showed thru and she gave the character a almost vernable quality.
Alot of actors would be all about working with alot of lines and mabey even a little pissed off had they been given less then expected but Angelina jolie is such a unselfish artist that she is constantly thinking whats best for the film not what will get me that Oscar.
she looked at the film as a whole and decided the film was best with less of her.
I also remember in one of the premier to Jesse James Brad told a reporter that she ( Angie ) had helped edit it. Angie quickly said Oh I really didn’t do that much, like humbel person she is.
oh and I also remember in the out takes of Mr and Mrs Smith, Angie was giving ideas of what should be done to one of the directors and the director said okay so you think that is one way it could be done and she said confidently , I think its the only way it should be done, and in the end it was done that .
All that to say its amazing what this girl has accomplished and the respect she has from her coworkers because they know this woman does know what she is tallking about.
============================
Just like you Magnolia, i enjoyed “Wanted” since Mr. & Mrs. Smith, in terms of dark comedy & of course just the mere presence of Angelina Jolie. I like Wanted so much that I already watched it 4 TIMES. I wonder how many times i would be watching it over & over again when its DVD is released. In Mr.& Mrs.Smith, I already lost count the number of times i saw it, though I watched it twice in the theaters.
i agree with you when you stated that she knows what she is talking about, when she gives suggestions to her directors pertaining to the scenes of her movies. It is because she has some knowledge in directing & screen writing, (New York University), aside from the fact that she was trained in the prestigious Lee Strasberg (theater acting) at an early age.
In the Mr. & Mrs. Smith out takes, I was very proud of her when she discussed with her director & Brad about the gun fight scenes inside their home. She was making a point to them that the more noise she heard from Brad’ character, the more she could easily shot him, so for Angie, every scene must make sense, not just for the heck of making it. She’s not afraid to discuss with the director if she has some questions or doubts on a certain scene. So, it didn’t come as a surprise to me when I first heard from Wanted’s director about cutting her lines. For Angie, it is always what’s good for the movie.
I hate the name knox leon! but im happy they have a boy and a girl!

vickiefromtexas–I hope it’s true too–and I also hope they get that little boy that you’ve wanted for them!
I thought I check in one more time before bed. This is very short from the AP.

PARIS (AP) — Angelina Jolie’s doctor says she gave birth to a boy and a girl.
So I’m guessing the ladies will be waiting for Knox aka Brad 2.0 to turn 18.
Does anyone think x will congratulate B&A on the birth of their twins?
I certainly hope she will, and it’s necessary if she wants to tell her fans that she doesn’t need them to keep attacking the JPs, that she is totally okay with things and happy with her new life.
After all, her fans claim that she dumped him, not the other way around, so they really have no reason to be bitter.
I believe the news is true. I am very happy for their family and pray they will continue to be blessed. I am sure tomorrow more news outlets will have the story and it will be plastered everywhere.
Okay fans. I am signing off. My heart is happy, my eyes are tired. Peace
Makes to confirm with a NICE paper
i wish we had confirmation.
