All baby name bets were off with Tuesday's arrival of Britney Spears' second child--a boy, not a girl.

对孩子的性别,“小甜甜”斯皮尔斯可能惊讶也可能不惊讶。但这一结果肯定让狗仔队大跌眼镜。
Reports leading up to the pop singer's labor day declared she was expecting a daughter to be named Jailynn--a tribute to her father, Jamie, her mother, Lynne, and her sister, Jamie Lynn, and the presumed palatable alternative to JamieLynneJamieLynn.
在这位流行歌星生产之前的所有新闻报道都宣称她一直期待一个女孩并准备取名为杰玲(Jailynn) 以表达她对自己的父母双亲Jamie和Lynne以及妹妹Jamie Lynn的敬意。据推测杰玲是JamieLynneJamieLynn的完美缩写。

However, the editor Street didn't think Spears would go the way of magician Penn Jillette, father of Moxie(9) Crimefighter and Zolten.
但是“名人之子姓名博客网站”编辑斯垂特说他不认为“小甜甜”会仿效魔术师Penn Jillette。这位父亲给孩子取名叫“与罪犯斗争者之勇气”和“佐婷” (电影“吸血鬼”中狗的名字)。
Street believed Britney, being the American icon(10), would go for(11) “a good, solid, traditional name".
