Cody confirmed to People that his son’s name was Paul Barrett “Bear” Walker. He was born on April 30 and is the third child that the star shares with his wife Felicia.

“This November will mark 10 years since we lost my brother, Paul, and I just felt now was the appropriate time,” he explained to the outlet. “My brother, Caleb, and I are both done having children. My brother, Paul, was Paul William Walker IV and that name goes back four generations.”

He continued, reflecting on his brother: “Within the family, he went by ‘little Paul’ or ‘Paul 4,’ even though he quickly outgrew our father in height. It was important to me to have that name carry on.”

Congratulations to the happy family!

Cody joined some other people who were close to Paul to celebrate his brother’s memory earlier this year.
