He shared after her birth: ""Just minutes old… We feel so overwhelmed right now. So happy to welcome our beautiful girl to the family.

"Thing is…. She has no name yet. Help!"

After weeks of deliberation, singer and TV star Pete, 51, revealed that his wife Emily, 34, had the honour of the final say.

They welcomed the tot into the world on April 2nd, and he recently shared: "We’ve been trying out names that our friends and family have suggested, but then Emily and I don’t seem to agree on them.

"So I think it’s only fair that Emily decides – I hope she picks a good one."

Emily today announced their baby name news on Instagram alongside a new beautiful photoshoot, showing their precious bundle of joy sleeping in a blanket.

The mum captioned two professional photos: “It’s taken a while but after lots of deliberation we’ve finally decided. Arabella Rose Andréa.”

Comments poured in from delighted fans, with one writing: "Well that was worth the wait … what a beautiful name for a beautiful baby."

Another said: "It was definitely worth the wait. Beautiful."

The couple are also doting parents to 10-year-old Amelia, and seven-year-old Theo.

During Emily's third pregnancy, Pete said they found it hard to agree on baby name choices for their other children too.

Florence and Charlotte were in the running for a girl, and a name that Peter said was becoming "extinct" if they had a boy.

He said: "I really like Keanu. It's crazy to think names could be wiped out. Maybe this will give us some inspiration.

"But we have no idea what we’ll call the baby!"

He added that they wanted to call their older daughter Amelia 'Rose' when she was born ten years ago, but they changed their minds.

The star wrote in his column for new magazine: "Millie didn't get her name for the first six weeks of her life, as we started with Rose before settling on Millie."

Their newborn daughter's name has multiple meanings - including 'yielding to prayer' in Latin, 'eagle heroine' in German, and 'beautiful' in English.
