LAS VEGAS - After naming their first-born girl Moxie CrimeFighter last June, comedian Penn Jillette and wife came up with something a bit more mainstream for their new son - Zolten Penn, who was born Monday.
"Zolten is a common Hungarian name, it's my wife's maiden name and most importantly, it's the name of Dracula's dog," Jillette, the 51-year-old larger half of the comedy-and-magic duo Penn & Teller, said in a statement.
Jillette left in the middle of his daily radio show on the CBS/Free FM network to be with his wife, 40-year-old Emily, in a Las Vegas hospital Monday afternoon, publicist Glenn Alai said.
Zolten Penn Jillette weighed 8 pounds, 13 ounces.

Don't you know a Zoltan?
Of course. Zoltan from Planet UB313 in the Beta Pictoris Solar System.
That's what that name makes me think of--something from outerspace:)
Joined by his trusty sidekick, Moxie CrimeFighter.
Sheesh, everyone knows that Moxie Crimefighter is a boy's name.
Sorry to hear that this pompous horse's a$$ had another child.
Good luck to Zolten, however.
"What kinda radio show does he do?", I said, trying to sound like I didn't already know.
What's wrong,was "Moon Unit" too middle-America for them?
Yes we do. And his family is of Hungarian descent. I thought it was a strange name when we got the announcement but my hubby said it was a family name. Guess he was correct, darn!
