Because Rocket Zot may sound a little odd but it has a beautiful meaning behind it.

The name of Lara Bingle’s newborn son began circulating yesterday, amid rumours that it may not actually be real.

The unusual nature of the name fuelled additional speculation that Bingle and her notoriously private husband, actor Sam Worthington might actually have gone with something else entirely.

But if this Facebook post uploaded by Lara herself is anything to go by, we’re happy to confirm it’s authentic.

Unfortunately, Lara has already had to come to the defence of his name because of a post that was written by an Australian journalist. It plays on the originality of her son’s middle name ‘Zot.’

The name is a nod to her late father.

Lara Bingle has also been seen (she’s real! She’s real!) for the first time since she gave birth, swimming in the ocean. The picture, which was uploaded to her instagram, shows the new mum looking completely at peace, but sadly for the paparazzi doesn’t include a shot of her new bub.
