Who names their kid Sweetheart? Movie star Tobey Maguire, that’s who!
In this interview with US Weekly, Tobey and his fiancée Jennifer Meyer explain why they gave their baby girl such an unconventional name:
Why the name Ruby Sweetheart?
“Jen’s grandmother, who passed away recently, would always call her ‘Sweetheart,’” Maguire explained to Jay Leno. “We named her that to honor her grandmother.” As for Ruby? "We just like the name.”What’s Tobey like as a dad?
“He’s having the best time with Jen, taking care of the baby,” says a friend. And Sam Raimi, director of Spider-Man 3 (out May 4), tells Us, “I know Tobey to be a perfectionist, and very in touch with his emotions. He’ll be the most sensitive, loving father.”What did Tobey think of the birthing process?
“Nobody really coached me on it,” Maguire told Leno. “They say, ‘OK, catch her!’ I’m like, ‘What do I do?’ I ended up just kind of putting my hand on her while the doctor put her on Mom’s belly.”What do their friends say?
“They’re the coolest parents,” a Maguire pal tells Us. “They’re the first of all their friends to have a baby, and the friends are eating it up.”Will they marry soon?
Engaged since April, the pair actually “wanted to get married before the baby was born,” says a family friend. “But they couldn’t get it together in time.”Nuptials in 2007? Stay tuned!
