Baby Halpert – The First Pics & How She Got Her Name
March 5, 2010 by Kath Skerry
Welcome to the world little Cecilia Marie Halpert!Check out the first pics of the newest Dunder Mifflinite with her Mommy & Daddy. How adorable!
But just how did the name Cecilia Marie come to be? Seems Jenna Fischer made the call on that one. Check out what she told People.com.
“The same week that we were shooting the episode where Pam’s baby is born, I was becoming the aunt for the very first time,” says Fischer, who spoke with PEOPLE about Thursday’s hour-long episode of The Office, in which her character Pam gave birth to a girl, named Cecelia Marie Halpert.
“Literally the day we shot Pam’s going to the hospital, my sister was going to the hospital, and the same day we shot me coming home from the hospital, my sister came home from the hospital. It was crazy! And so my dad [Jim] had one daughter going through it for real and another faking it.”
And thanks to Fischer, both babies have the same name.
“I got to name my baby!” says Fischer, who successfully lobbied The Office writers to use the name Cecelia. “I said I would really love to name the baby after my niece, so I did.”

AWWWW SO CUTE
I’m slightly mad it’s a girl, because I lost a two year bet on this.
These photos are “awww!’-inducing. Love it! And it’s great that Jenna named baby Halpert after her niece.
Will Cecelia Marie become the new Emma Grace?
