Ronnie Ortiz-Magro Reveals Details About His Brand-New Baby Girl

The Jersey Shore gang is a real family -- and there's a brand-new addition to the lovable clan. This calls for a toast with some Ron Ron Juice...


Ronnie Ortiz-Magro -- who is on MTV every Jerzday Thursday with his brothers/sisters from another mother -- welcomed his first child with girlfriend Jen Harley on April 3. The two had shared on Christmas Eve that they would soon have a petite guidette princess to call their own. The little lady's moniker: Ariana. Us Weekly was first to break the news.


"In the starting, as soon as me and my girlfriend were first hooking up, we would joke around and mention, 'Imagine if we had a kid,'" Ronnie revealed to MTV News. "I habitually knew that I was going to have a girl, so we came up with Ariana. And once we noticed out that [Jen] was pregnant, we mentioned that it was only right that we name [the baby] Ariana. It was faith," he mentioned, adding that she isn't named right after anyone.


Right now that Baby Ariana is here, how would Ron describe being a dad?


"Fatherhood has surprised me in several ways," he stated. "You love all of those people during your life, and then you finally have a baby and also you begin to realize what real love is. I look at her, and I'm like, 'I made that. That came from me.'"


And while we have wait to be able to see a glimpse of the MTV munchkin, Ron mentioned the peanut looks just like her daddy.


"She didn't get the good looks," he joked.
