Singer and actor Judika Nalon Abadi Sihotang has said that he has picked out a name for the baby he is expecting with wife, presenter Duma Riris Silalahi, who is two month into her pregnancy.

Judika said that his wife came across the name Deofolante, a boy'€™s name, and that the she wanted to give the baby that name. The couple, however, has yet to find out whether they are expecting a boy or a girl.

'€œI was out of town when Duma told me that they had decided on Deofolante, which means '€œGod willing'€. I approved. From now on, I will call her Mama Deo,'€ said the 36-year-old singer, as quoted by kompas.com in Jakarta.

Judika, who rose to fame after finishing in second place in the second season of Indonesian Idol in 2005, said that if the baby turned out to be a girl, he would simply tweak the name.

'€œIf it is a girl then it will be Dea. But so far, Duma is convinced that she'€™s carrying a boy,'€ said Judika, who married Duma in August last year.
