celebrity namesakes laura ling

While in captivity in North Korea, Current TV reporter Laura Ling thought she would never be able to start the family she always wanted. Thanks to the efforts of many, including Bill Clinton, who escorted her back to the land of the free, her dream came true when she welcomed daughter Li Jefferson Clayton into the world. Her first name, Li, is in honor of Laura's sister—Lisa Ling. Awwww. And Jefferson? Well, that's because she is so grateful for Bill Clinton's help—Jefferson is Clinton's middle name. (And Clayton sure sounds similar to Clinton.) A baby named after Bill Clinton? Sweet, but kind of weird, right? [People]
