I think the baby has been named after Simon's father.

[Prudie]

Maybe there'll be a revival, it's a name that has fallen right out of fashion.

[B00]

It was my grandad's name

[tonyav]

B00, now this baby Eric has a grandad called Eric.

[pixie373]

Think his brother is called Eric, too. Not keen on it, myself.

[tonyav]

Theres a few Eric Cowells now then.

[Fusion5]

Perhaps he will start a trend in new parents calling their babes Eric. (:0/

[Psybbo]

Well I like Eric Burdon

[roopower]

Not keen on it myself but it's so much better than Duvet or Tayberry, or whatever. I hope the baby brings his parents much joy, it's wonderful being a parent - and grand parent.

[tonyav]

Yeah, but he's an animal, Psybbo !.

[Psybbo]

Yes Tony, and I like animals often more than humans

[lardhelmet]

So will he be Eric Cowell of Eric whatever-his-mothers surname-is?

[Brinjal]

Had a horse called Eric.

Having no interest whatsoever in what celebrities get up – I don’t know what all the fuss is about.

However, I did enjoy a Private Eye front cover a few months back, featuring
Cowell and another (who I assume to be one of his squeezes) with speech bubbles:-

Cowell – ‘I think that there is a bastard involved.’

She – ‘Yes, it’s you.’

And my dad's name!

[grasscarp]

talking of jokes, when Simon and Lauren were pictured months ago arguing in the back of a vehicle, some wag said she was saying - "No. Sinitta is not going to be there for the birth."

[China Doll]

My cat is called Eric.

My dad had a (female) cat called Eric. One day Eric took a stray home and she stayed for 12 years. Parents called her Ernie.
