'I
asked President Obama if he liked one of our name choices and he said
he did,' she said while appearing on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.
'John
isn't sold on the name, so I figured if [the president] liked it, then
John would be sold on it. He says it's too "Hollywood".'
Before
welcoming her first child, Chrissy celebrated with two baby showers:
one in New York City and a second in Los Angeles, which was hosted by
her friend Kim Kardashian.
While
Chrissy did not reveal her due date ahead of the birth, she dropped a
big hint that she would welcome her daughter in April when she moved the
release of her cookbook Cravings forward to February.
