Paris Hilton wanted to keep her baby's name a secret, but television host Ellen DeGeneres beat her to the punch.
The hotel heiress, who welcomed her first child with husband Carter Reum in January, announced in Wednesday's episode of her "This is Paris" podcast that her son's "name is Phoenix Barron Hilton Reum."
"Phoenix has a few good pop culture reference points, but more important, it's the bird that flames out and rises from the ashes to fly again," Hilton said, reading an excerpt from her upcoming memoir. "I want my son to grow up knowing disaster and triumph go around and come around throughout our lives."
