Josh Holloway, my favorite bad boy from Lost, and his wife welcomed a baby girl on April 9th. Josh and Yessica had announced the pregnancy last year, and everyone on Lost was really excited to welcome an “island baby”. A source close to the actor confirmed to People Magazine that everyone was healthy and happy following the birth. Josh and Yessica named their first child Java Kumala Holloway.
Lost heartthrob Josh Holloway and wife Yessica welcomed a daughter on April 9 in Oahu, PEOPLE has exclusively confirmed. They named their baby girl Java Kumala Holloway.
“Dad and Mom are absolutely thrilled,” a source close to the actor, 39, tells PEOPLE. “Everyone’s happy and healthy.” This is the first child for the couple, who have been married since 2004.
Holloway’s Lost costar Daniel Dae Kim knew the actor would enjoy fatherhood. “He’ll be an incredible dad,” Kim told PEOPLE in February. “When you talk to him about his baby, his face completely lights up.”

I’m not sure about the name Java Kumala. It has the sound both of Hawaiian influences, and Yessica’s Asian roots. In any case, Java’s not the worst name… she won’t be picked on too badly, as far as celebrity baby names go.
Josh and Yessica have been together for years – she was with him when he was a struggling actor, taking odd-jobs on the side. I’ve seen him talk about his wife in interviews, and he just adores her. They’ll both make great parents, so congratulations to the happy family!
Here’s Josh and Yessica at the “We Are Marshall” premiere in 2006. Images thanks to WENN.com .

He’s so frickin cute! It almost makes me want to start watching LOST again. It’s too bad that show is just unwatchable at this point.

Actually, in this particular instance, I think Java is a lovely name for the little girl (I’m going to assume that Kumala has a significance for one of the parents and they didn’t land her with it because it sounded “pretty”)
(Gistine! The child should be honoured to be named after the Most Reverend Dr. TuTu! Cheeky mare!!

New Rule: Give your kid a stupid name (obscure minority traditions notwithstanding) kid goes to family services until you grow the f up.

Um. I’m pretty sure that Kumala is Yessica’s last name, so it’s not just a tacked-on middle name… though it’s quite pretty.
The first name Java, though, I see can be a bit questionable. Though I think it’s cute!

Java coffe got “Java” from an island in Indonesia which grows a lot of coffee beans. So, they could named her after an island.

with tv, you have the remote, or you can just switch discovery/national geo, or a news channel and watch for hours.this is exactly the problem with internet video, for example youtube. On computer we dont have a remote, i cant switch/surf videos or i cant even queue [big limitation] some of the videos which will play one after the other.these are some limitations due to which i prefer watching Tv on prime time rather than internet videos or youtube, am sure many would agree with it,
