Josh Holloway Is Officially A Dad

APR 14, 2009 AT 07:51 AM

Josh Holloway has officially become a father.
The ‘Lost’ actor and his wife Yessica Kumala welcomed a daughter into the world on April 9 in Oahu, Hawaii.
Their child is named Java Kumala Holloway. How sweet!

"Dad and mom are absolutely thrilled. Everyone is happy and healthy."

No further details about the birth have been released as of yet.

Josh’s ‘Lost’ co-star Daniel Dae Kim recently said he was certain Josh would love being a father.

"He will be an incredible dad. When you talk to him about his baby, his face completely lights up."

Josh and Yessica have been married since 2004 and live in Hawaii where Lost is filmed.

What do you think about the name Java? It's one we haven't heard of yet in Hollywood.

I think Java is a beautiful name and just in america will people think Java as in coffee because nowhere in europe does anyone associate Java with coffee. So if Josh and his beautiful family will have problems in the future because of that name they can move to europe

Kumala is her maiden name, too, If I remember correctly. So Even though it's a bit odd, I like the meaning behind the name.

Two previous posters have got it -

Java as in the island, Kumala as in Yessica's last name. She is a native of Jakarta [on the island of Java], Indonesia, and Kumala is a fairly common name there.
