Baskets star Zach Galifianakis has never been a “normal” Hollywood star. During his entire rise to fame he’s played characters that have always been a little “off” and separate from the rest of the pack, or should I say “wolfpack?” Sorry, bad joke. But appears that Galifianakis, like his unorthodox characters, has a bit of the same tendencies in his real life. After becoming a father for the second time in November, Zach revealed the process for naming his baby to Jimmy Fallon.
“Being in L.A., I didn’t want to give them L.A. names,” the comedian began as we all braced for a punch line. “One of them’s name is Pinkberry. Pinkberry is the older one. The other one is named Jared Leno, which is a cross between Jared Leto and Jay Leno.”
The actor actually named his newborn Rufus Emmanuel Lundberg, according to People. The name of his older boy, who was born in 2013, remains a secret. While the actor keeps his lips sealed on baby names he’s equally as tight lipped about his day job.
“My kids don’t know anything,” he joked. “We don’t talk about what I do for a living…I don’t talk about what I do for a living with anybody except on talk shows.”
For some reason I have a feeling that Zach Galifianakis doesn’t stray too far from his character in real life. See the full clip below:
