London (ANI): Soon-to-be dad Usher knows exactly what he"s going to name his child if wife Tameka Foster gives birth to a baby boy. The 28-year old R and B singer revealed to Ellen Degeneres on her show that if his first child is a boy, he will be following in his dad"s footsteps – at least in the name department. "If it's a boy, I'm going to name him Usher," the Mirror quoted the singer, as saying.

"I'm hoping to name him that. I've been playing with a few names. I'm Usher Raymond IV. I just want to pass the name on. Maybe I'll change the middle name," he added. In June this year, Usher announced that he and his then-fiancee Tameka Foster were expecting a baby in the fall of 2007.
