It was recently revealed that Gretchen Mol and her husband, director Tod Williams, have been parents of a son since this September.
The interesting thing is his name - Ptolemy. The name is derived from the Ancient Greek name Ptolemaios, which means ‘warlike’.
* Claudius Ptolemaeus (Ptolemy in English) - 86 - 101AD - A Greek mathematician, geographer, astronomer and astrologer from Alexandria in Ancient Egypt.
* Ptolemy I Soter - 367 - 283BC - A Macedonian general under the rule of Alexander the Great, who later came to rule Ancient Egypt.
So the name, with a masculine meaning and strong historical relevance, doesn’t seem like such bad choice after all!
