The name is also said to have been inspired by actress Eva's 2007 part in film We Own The Night, in which she played a character called Amada.

Not only have Ryan and Eva given their daughter an unusual name, but other US reports claim the new mum has an adorable nick name for her.

She is said to call her 'Preciosa', which means precious in Spanish.

Unsurprisingly the couple are 'besotted' with their little girl, and a source said: "Eva's in the deliriously tired but blissfully-in-love stage where she wants to do everything herself."
