Jessica Simpson Gives Birth to Baby Boy Ace Knute Johnson
Maxwell's baby brother has arrived! Jessica Simpson and fiance Eric Johnson have welcomed their second child, a baby boy named Ace Knute Johnson, her rep tells Us Weekly exclusively. Little Ace was born in Los Angeles via scheduled C-section on Sunday, June 30, the rep adds.
"Ace Knute (pronounced Ka-nute) Johnson has arrived! Mom and baby are doing great," her rep tells Us. "Jessica, Eric and Maxwell are thrilled to welcome the new addition to their family."
The singer, 32, and Johnson, 33, are already parents to daughter Maxwell, nearly 14 months. Us exclusively revealed in November 2012 that Simpson was pregnant again just seven months after Maxwell's birth; Us also broke news in February that Simpson planned on naming her child "Ace." (Ace's middle name honors dad Eric's Swedish paternal grandfather, Knute Johnson.)
In true Jessica fashion, the Fashion Star mentor accidentally confirmed the sex of her second baby-to-be to back in March. "The crazy thing is I never knew a wiener could make me nauseous," she joked of her morning sickness. After realizing her mistake, Simpson added, "Well, I guess I just told the world that I'm having a boy!"
And gender wasn't the only difference for pregnancy number two. In an interview with Ellen DeGeneres on March 7, Simpson shared that "this pregnancy is the complete opposite. Like with Maxwell, I felt amazing. Like I could do everything, eat everything. Do whatever I wanted. I had a lot of energy," she recalled. "This time around . . . I'm like exhausted. Eating Tums. That's my snack of choice."
After about six months of dating, Simpson and Johnson, a Yale grad and former NFL player, got engaged in fall 2010, but were forced to postpone their nuptials twice due to her unexpected, back-to-back pregnancies. But a source recently told Us they're hoping to (finally!) tie the knot soon.
At the Weight Watchers spokeswoman's April 14 baby shower, she "was telling friends she wanted to get married a few months after the baby is born," the source told Us. "Jessica said, 'Let's have this wedding already before I get pregnant with another one!'"

What the hell is Ka-nute? They are ka-nuts.
eta- I didn't know he was named after someone. I thought they made it up. I take that back. I still don't like it at all though.

How bad is it that her daughter's name sounds more masculine than her son's

I don't think they are nuts at all. The baby was named after his great grandfather.

Ok, I didn't know this. I thought they made it up. I take that back after reading he was named after a grandpa. I still don't like it at all though.

Not my choice for boy's names, but at least it's better than North! Congratulations to her.

There was a soccer player decades ago named Knute Rockne, but he pronounced his name "Noot" - silent k, like in "know". Never heard it pronounced any other way. Congrats to them!

Exactly lol. I think now whenever we hear a name that's "eh", we're going to end up saying, "well, at least it's not named North West!"

Knute...first thing that popped into my head was the famous Notre Dame football coach, Knute Rockne.

I actually like the name Ace... and hey Knute is a family name, I can't judge. But I agree, Maxwell sounds more masculine by far.

Re: Jessica Simpson Gives Birth to Baby Boy Ace Knute Johnson
I worked with a man name Ace, and everyone always asked him if that was his real name or a nickname. I imagine that gets old!
Also, Ace Johnson kinda sound like a porn star. 
The only other Knute I am familiar with is Knute Rockne--I had to do a book report on his biography in elementary school because I was out of the class when they picked & that was all that was left.
