It took almost a week, but Jessa Duggar Seewald’s newborn son finally has a name.
Jessa and her husband, Ben Seewald, named their first child Spurgeon Elliot Seewald, according to their family website. The couple named Spurgeon after a British preacher named Charles Spurgeon.
“We want to give him a strong name, with a lot of meaning,” Jessa told People earlier this week. She added she likes names from the Christian faith.
"One guy that has really impacted my life is a great preacher of the past, Charles Haddon Spurgeon," Ben said. Jessa gave birth to baby Spurgeon on Nov. 5.
“So excited!!!!! Ben and Jessa have had their sweet new baby!,” the Duggar family Facebook page said. “A beautiful baby BOY!!!!! More details soon. Mom and baby are both doing great! Thanks for all your prayer! Congrats Ben and Jessa, we love you!”
Jessa revealed she was pregnant in April, and Spurgeon just became Jim Bob and Michelle’s sixth grandchild.
Jessa and Ben celebrated their first wedding anniversary on Nov. 1.
