Red Hot Chili Peppers frontman Anthony Kiedis has revealed that he has named his newborn son Everly Bear.

The singer's girlfriend Heather Christie gave birth to their first child on October 2 and christened him with the quirky name.

Kiedis told People magazine: "We had a long list of names, but I suppose it came to me by way of the Everly Brothers, which is one of my favourite bands.

"The mama came up with Bear. That made sense to me because he's from me and I feel like I'm part of the bear clan, and I think it's nice to have a little bit of earth in your name."
