Scott Stapp's New Edition

E! Online, Jan 8, 2007 6:58 am PST
His arms were wide open anyway, so Scott Stapp must have figured he was ready to wrap 'em around a new baby. 

The former Creed frontman and his wife, Jaclyn, welcomed their first child together Thursday afternoon in Miami, a girl they've named Milán Hayat Stapp. 

A statement issued by the proud pop's record company said, "Milán has been chosen from Scott's Cherokee heritage for its definition, which is 'to have the creativity of God.' Hayat is from Jaclyn's Jordanian upbringing and is simply 'to give life.' " 

The baby was born at approximately 1 p.m., weighing in at 6 pounds, 7 ounces and measuring 20 inches long. 

Stapp and Jaclyn Nesheiwat tied the knot last February at the waterfront Vizcaya Museum and Gardens on Miami's Biscayne Bay.  

Nesheiwat, who was crowned Miss New York USA in 2004, walked down the aisle in a Vera Wang stunner. Stapp's son from his first marriage, eight-year-old Jagger, served as best man.  

The Grammy-winning rocker divorced Hillaree Burns in 1999 after 16 months as husband and wife. 

After splitting with Creed in 2004, Stapp released a solo album, The Great Divide, the following year. According to his rep, the 33-year-old Florida native has already penned a song for his newborn daughter, which will be featured on his second solo effort.
