Sonequa Martin-Green, star of 'Star Trek: Discovery' and 'The Walking Dead', and her husband, fellow 'TWD' star Kenric Green, are currently expecting their second child together after 5-year-old son Kenric Justin II. On an episode of 'Friday Night In With The Morgans', hosted by Jeffrey Dean Morgan and Hilarie Burton Morgan, they revealed the adorable name that their son wanted to give his baby sister.

The Greens first announced the pregnancy in March 2020 with an Instagram post showing Green and Kenric with their hands placed on Martin-Green’s baby bump, visible underneath a red T-shirt. "Adding another passenger to the Green train!" they captioned the post. "All aboard little lady, this train is fueled by Love and we’re already overflowing with it for you." On 'Friday Night In', the couple spoke about how little Kenric has been wanting a baby sister for a long time and revealed that they periodically ask him what he thinks the new child's name should be. And apparently, one of his first picks was 'Cute Strawberry' Green."

The fans have been going crazy on Twitter, showering the couple with congratulations and talking about how adorable that name is. One fan, for example, tweeted, "Baby Cute Strawberry Green." Another wrote, "#FridayNightInWithTheMorgans congratulations to @SonequaMG and @KenricJG." Another fan chimed in, "IT'S A GIRLLLLLLLLLLLL #FridayNightInWithTheMorgans."

The Morgans for their part seemed very happy to hear the news and Jeffrey was quick to tell Kenric Sr that he's "so screwed" now that he's about to have a baby girl. Jeffrey and Hilarie also shared their own adorable story of how their son Gus Morgan wanted to name his baby sister George "Limousine Morgan". "I love how excited @JDMorgan is for the new Green baby #FridayNightInWithTheMorgans," a fan wrote on Twitter. 

For those who don't know, 'Friday Night In With The Morgans' is a weekly talk show airing on AMC where Jeffrey and Hilarie Burton connect with their friends over video chat for a half-hour of unwinding and talking about all the things they're up to during this quarantine period. It's a freewheeling conversation that's a great way to relax at the end of a stressful week and we're hoping they keep it going even after the end of the pandemic.

'Friday Night In With The Morgans' airs Friday nights at 10 pm ET on AMC.
