Ex-Blur bass player Alex James has revealed that his wife Claire is pregnant with their fourth child.

James, who has three sons - Geronimo, four, and two-year-old twins Artemis and Galileo - told OK! that he is having a daughter.

Speaking to the magazine, the musician admitted that he wants to continue his tradition of giving his children odd names.

He said: "I think you've got to have a look at them before you decide what they will be called. We quite like Sophie, although I don't think we will get that past the board of censors - especially Geronimo!"

James added: "There's a shortlist now. I quite like Boudica."
