The Name Game: What John Travolta and Kelly Preston Want to Call the New Baby
Back in May, 'Old Dogs' star John Travolta and his wife of 19 years, Kelly Preston, revealed the happy news that they were expecting a baby this fall.
Over the summer, the couple announced that the new addition to their family, joining 10-year-old big sister Ella, would be a boy.
Now, Star magazine is reporting that the actor -- who is visiting Sydney, Australia, this week -- has revealed even more baby news.
Travolta, 56, and Preston, 48, have decided what they plan to call their newborn son when he arrives.
According to Travolta, the name will be Benjamin.
In the new interview, he says his wife is due to give birth in three weeks. Hopefully she won't go into labor early, as Travolta is down under celebrating the 90th anniversary of Qantas airline. The movie star and avid pilot reportedly flew his personal Boeing jet to Sydney for the occasion.
Before all the headlines about their baby-to-be, Travolta and Preston grieved privately following the shocking 2009 death of their 16-year-old son Jett due to a fatal seizure.
Preston did make a rare appearance at the Toronto film festival in September, telling People.com about the pregnancy, "It's been very easy and so wonderful. I've had no morning sickness and [the pregnancy] has gone by so quickly. I feel terrific."
