Matt Damon and Luciana have welcomed their third daughter together! Lucy gave birth on Wednesday (!) and they just released the birth announcement on Saturday. Damn, Matt really keeps his life private, doesn’t he? There were no reports, to my knowledge, about the two of them even entering a hospital. Anyway, as previously reported (when Matt acknowledged it on the red carpet), it was another girl, their third together, although they have a fourth daughter who Matt is a step-father to, and who he treats as his own flesh-and-blood. Lucy and Matt named their baby girl Stella, and Stella joins big sisters Alexa, Isabella and Gia. Lots of “ends in -a” names, correct?

Matt Damon and his wife Luciana have their hands full.

The couple, already raising three children, welcomed a girl, Stella Zavala Damon, who was born on Wednesday in New York.

“Mom and baby are both healthy,” Damon’s rep tells PEOPLE. “The whole family is thrilled.”

Damon, who turned 40 earlier this month, and Luciana, 35, wed in 2005 and have two children together – Isabella, 4, and Gia, 2. Luciana also has a daughter, Alexa, from a previous marriage.

Damon currently stars in Hereafter, which opened wide on Friday.

My name ends in “a” (my REAL name), so I have some love for that system. It does seem a little strange that they would use that system for every single girl though. What about an Elizabeth? A Harper? A Karen? Even mix it up with the middle names. But no, every little girl deserves a name straight out of a Harlequin romance. Stella especially is over-played in Hollywood circles, because of famed acting coach Stella Adler. And because Stella means “star” – which seems a little on the nose. Anyway, enough bitching. Congratulations to Matt and Lucy, and the whole gang of women. This is Matt’s last time around with a newborn!
