Amy Schumer has been forced to change her infant son’s name as she thought it sounded like “genital,” she revealed.
The 38-year-old comic gave birth to son Gene on May 5 last year. Schumer and her husband, Chris Fischer, 40, gave him the middle name Attell in honor of fellow comic and close friend Dave Attell.
However, speaking on her podcast “3 Girls, 1 Keith,” Schumer told her co-hosts Rachel Feinstein, Bridget Everett and Keith Robinson: “Do you guys know that Gene, our baby’s name, is officially changed? It’s now Gene David Fischer. It was Gene Attell Fischer, but we realized that we, by accident, named our son ‘Genital.'”
Podcast guest Aussie actress Claudia O’Doherty — who appeared in Schumer’s first movie, “Trainwreck” — admitted: “My mum pointed that out to me, ‘Amy’s called her son “Genital,” and she was right!'”
Schumer said she and her husband talked to Attell — who played her homeless BFF Noah in “Trainwreck” — about the decision to drop the middle name.
She went on to say that her son is now named after both her friend and her father, Gordon Schumer, whose middle name is David, adding: “So, two stones.”
Baby Gene’s first name may be inspired by the late, great comedian Gene Wilder. When the comedian passed away in 2016, Amy — who found out via Chris Rock’s Instagram — appeared stunned by the news, writing: “Big death. Heavy moment.”
Meanwhile, amid the coronavirus pandemic, Schumer and her chef husband have signed up for a Food Network show called “Amy Schumer Learns to Cook.”

She should have named him after Bob and Toms favorite drink

Frivolous people. But I guess it takes all types.
Nothing against Trump, but I wouldn’t call a kid Barron because it sounds like barren. Those kinds of things occur to me. But I guess not everyone.
And being ‘comics’, I would’ve hoped they chose Gene after Gene Wilder. But there is a bit of irony naming a kid Gene during a genetic altering viral pandemic.
Mulva LOL.
I know someone of that name! If I were he I’d do that first initial plus middle name thing
Anyway, it goes something like this:
Meathead - Stanislaus Archibald Stivik.
Archie - Why not Archibald Stanislaus Stivik?
Meathead - You wouldn't want him to have those initials.
Why not a boy named Sue Trump?
Just name him King Knut. (Canute ) / Olde Englishe or something>
Clint Orris?
You’ve got to think these things through. I think they should have just added the David and kept Atell, since it was sweet to name him after their friend.
Genital makes sense
His mothers a “c**t” and his father’s probably a D***
I’d be more concerned with her vulgar act being an issue for the child. He will be ridiculed for that alone, I think.
Malcolm X was unavailable for comment.
I have a hrd time believing that greasy pig has a man to knock her up.
Well, now...it’ll be Genital for the rest of his life.
Poor kid.

Had to double-double check. Seemed like April1st fare. Or Babylon Bee.
So-o-o-o she has castrated her little boy? I mean she changed his genitals.
I think she had this suppressed wish to name him Adolph.
Not after that Austrian-German war criminal dude.
I mean that brand of Meat Tenderizer.
That was a great Seinfeld episode. Saw it again, yesterday.
Moe: Moe’s Tavern, Moe speaking.
Bart: Uh, yes, I’m looking for a Mrs. O’Problem. First name, Bea.
Moe: Uh, yeah, just a minute, I’ll check. [calls] Uh, Bea O’Problem? Bea O’Problem! Come on, guys, do I have a Bea O’Problem here?!
Barney: Ya sure do! [bar denizens laugh]
Moe: Oh... [to phone] It’s you, isn’t it?! [Bart laughs] Listen, you. When I get a hold of you, I’m going to use your head for a bucket and paint my house with your brains!
