Ben Affleck forced to set the record straight about Jennifer Lopez’s baby name
In a surprising statement this week, Ben Affleck was forced to clear the air once and for all regarding the rumors about Jennifer Lopez’s baby name — a topic that has been heating up social media and entertainment blogs for weeks.
After ongoing speculation that the couple had chosen an unusual or “controversial” name for a supposed baby, Affleck spoke out publicly to put an end to the gossip.
“Let me be clear. We haven’t had a child together, and therefore, no name has been chosen,” he said firmly during an interview on Late Night Talk.
The rumors started after Lopez posted a mysterious photo on social media featuring a baby stroller, captioned: “Ready for the next chapter.” Fans quickly assumed it was a pregnancy announcement, sparking theories about baby names ranging from the sentimental to the bizarre.
Affleck added jokingly:
“The only thing we’ve named lately is our new dog — and believe it or not, his name is Batman.”
The actor’s clarification came after growing pressure from fans and media outlets demanding a direct answer. For now, both stars appear focused on their individual careers — Lopez with her music and fashion ventures, and Affleck with his next big directing project.
