It's unlike musical genius and future US president Kanye West to do anything remotely OTT. This week though, he and Kim Kardashian announced - via Twitter, obviously - that their new baby boy is called Saint. It's only a matter of time before he begins writing his own songs and becoming Pope, probably.
Yeezy has been teasing his new album, once called So Help Me God, now named Swish (did he get a trainer deal with Nike?), for some time now. It seems likely, with the birth of Saint, that it won't be materialising any time soon.
As well as asking the important questions, the most pressing being whether it's pronounced in the English or French (Yves Saint Laurent, for example) way, Twitter's reaction to Saint's name ranged from bemused to perplexed to impressed.
