Jimmy Kimmel’s Baby Name Game with Ginnifer Goodwin
The 37-year-old actress flashed her pearly whites and appeared to be in good spirits as she chatted with Jimmy Kimmel about her new movie, “Zootopia,” and her pregnancy. Jimmy even helped her come up with a name for baby number. 2!
With the help of his assistant, Guillermo, he brought out two bingo hoppers: the first had bird names written on the ping-pong balls, and the second had names of vegetables to represent the baby’s first and middle names, respectively.
Guillermo selected “Crane” for the first name, then “Eggplant” for the second name. Jimmy suggested they spin the middle name again to come up with something that sounds better, and they came up with “Rutabaga.”
