Celine Dion recently gave birth to twin boys. She and her husband announced the birth of their sons, but did not initially release their names. Well, they have finally done so. The boys names are Eddy and Nelson. Both names have meanings special to their parents.
Eddy was named after a gentleman by the name of Eddy Mornay. He is a producer that has worked closely with Celine over the course of her career. In fact, he helped produce her first five albums which is pretty impressive considering how successful Dion’s career has been, especially early on.
Nelson, was named in honor of Nelson Mandela. Both Renee (Celine Dion’s husband) and Celine have been quite impressed with Mandela’s life.
Nelson and Eddy were both born early. Each weighed a little more than 5 pounds which is pretty good considering that the boys were twins and born early.
The boys were forced to spend some time in the neonatal intensive care unit. Though this sounds bad, its perfectly normal for these types of births.
