Benedict Cumberbatch has the coolest name ever, and now, he has a son! With a last name like Cumberbatch, anything he and wife Sophie Hunter decide to name their kid is sure to be gold. Quentin Cumberbatch? Gold. Phineas Cumberbatch? Gold. Coffee Table Cumberbatch? GOLD. Really, you can’t possibly go wrong. As of now, a name has yet to be released, but here’s what his rep revealed, via Us:
Benedict Cumberbatch and Sophie Hunter are delighted to announce the arrival of their beautiful son. We would kindly ask everyone to respect the family’s privacy during these next few precious weeks.
And the “Cumberbitches” go wailing to Tumblr once more. You know, I personally never got the appeal of Benedict Cumberbatch until I actually sat down and watched Sherlock, and now, I totally get it. He’s weirdly sexy.
I wish the couple all my best, and hope that they do justice to the Cumberbatch name by picking something awesome for their child. What do YOU think is the best name for the boy? Winner gets bragging rights.
Lucian: English meaning Lucian Light
Lucius: English, meaning Light
Okay, now that I got that out of the way (though Lucian would be SO SO cool)
Silas: Latin meaning Man of the Forest
(more if his name does not come out soon!!!)

Yep, he’s weirdly hot. I think half of it is that voice.
