Pratt and Schwarzenegger married in 2019, and their first baby, daughter Lyla Schwarzenegger Pratt, was born in August 2020. He also shares a 9-year-old son, Jack, with his ex-wife Anna Faris.

When Lyla was yet to turn one, the 42-year-old actor teased that he was open to having "as many [kids] as the man upstairs will provide." The actor added, "We'll do it. I'll probably have to talk to Katherine about that but my plan is, let's go."

At the time, Pratt also spoke about being a father of two kids calling his experience "really beautiful" and admitting that he did not "roughhouse as much" and preferred to "cuddle" with his kids.

He said, "I think having a second child really emphasizes what was unique about your first child because when you have one kid, you just take for granted all their growth and development. You just assume all children are that way."

Meanwhile Schwarzenegger, the daughter of Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver, also hails from a large family, so having more kids is not out of the question for her.

The Name Is Giving Bridgerton Vibes

The proud parents posted this announcement with the caption, "We are so excited to announce the birth of our second daughter, Eloise Christina Schwarzenegger Pratt. Mama and baby are doing well. We feel beyond blessed and grateful. Love, Katherine, and Chris."

The name "Eloise" takes us straight back to Netflix's hit series, "Bridgerton" where she is the nerdish sister, almost spinster-ish in her avoidance of societal rules.

Fan comments soon followed, "Ahhh the most congratulations! Cutest name ever too, make sure to take her to the plaza ??"

"OMG!! Congrats!!! Eloise is such a beautiful name!! So happy for you guys. Can’t wait to meet her. ❤️"

"Congratulations!!! Eloise!!! I only pack by parachute !!! Eloise in Paris!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️"

"Congratulations!!!! What a special time and a beautiful name ❤️"

Fans are eagerly awaiting the pictures now...
