Video · Dax Shepard Explains Why He Named His Daughter Delta, Reveals Wife Kristen Bell Was in Labor for 33 Hours!

Three weeks ago, Dax Shepard and Kristen Bell welcomed their second child, a daughter named Delta . Just how did the actors settle on that name? Shepard said on the Ellen DeGeneres Show Thursday, “It was a joke because our first daughter’s name is Lincoln, which is very masculine. So, a friend of mine teasingly texted me: ‘Oh, great! What’s this one gonna be? Navy Seal? Delta Force? Green Burette?'” He continued, “I was reading this text out loud to Kristen. And I said, ‘Oh, Louis Steve said what if we named her Delta?’ Delta! Delta Bell Sheppard! That’s it!’ And that’s it!” Shepard also says, Bell, who gave birth via C-section, was in labor for 33 hours adding, “And she got an epidural like hour 14, as you should, and I think dads need something. I deserve something because I was along for the ride. It’s still a car crash and I’m in the passenger seat.”
