Hugh Grant finally shared the unique names of his two youngest daughters.
The 64-year-old actor let his daughters’ monikers slip while discussing his own quirky middle name — Mungo — on “Jimmy Kimmel Live” Tuesday.
“I must ask you about your middle name because this is a little detail and I don’t know how it slipped past me the last time. But, Mungo is one of your middle names, yes?” Jimmy Kimmel asked.
“Yes,” the “Love Actually” star begrudgingly admitted, noting that his full name is Hugh John Mungo Grant.

Grant joked that he “had very unkind parents” and, as a result, gave his own children even “worse” names.
The actor shares daughter Tabitha Xiao Xi, 13, and son Felix Chang Hong, 11, with ex Tinglan Hong. He also shares son John Mungo, 12, with wife Anna Eberstein, whom he wed in 2018.
While he and Eberstein are also parents of an 8-year-old and 5-year-old daughter, they never disclosed their names — until now.
“I have a daughter who I named…I was in a bit of a panic with my wife on the day we named her and we thought it might be nice for her when she was older if she could say in bars that her middle name was Danger,” Grant explained.

“So her name is Lulu Danger Grant,” he said of his 8-year-old.
Later in the episode, Grant revealed his youngest daughter is named Blue Grant.
“[She was] named Blue because, again, I panicked about names with my wife so we asked her elder brother when she was on the way,” he shared.
“We said, ‘There’s a new baby coming along, what should we call her?’ And he said, ‘Kevin,’ because that was his favorite Minion,” he recalled, referencing the “Despicable Me” movies.

Although Hugh and his wife rejected John’s initial suggestion, they agreed on his second choice.
“And we did think about calling her Kevin but then we said, ‘You better think of something else.’ So he said Blue, because it was his favorite color.”

Despite being known for being a curmudgeon, Hugh told the Los Angeles Times in November 2020 that having kids made him a bit softer.
“When you say how have I changed as an actor, I strongly suspect that having these children has really helped,” he said. “Because suddenly, instead of being a half-atrophied, middle-aged golfer, I’m a man with a life full of love.”
He continued, “I love my wife, I love my children. They love me. And, suddenly — very unusual for an Englishman — I have all this access to emotion. Almost too much access. Sometimes it’s hard to keep it down.”
