Comedian Eddie Perfect, and his wife, Lucy Cochran, welcomed their second daughter on February 21. Her name is Lottie Lux, and she was born at 3 pm in Melbourne, weighing 3.94 kg (8 pounds 11 ounces). Lottie joins big sister Kitty, aged 18 months. Eddie jokes that as a father of only daughters, he will soon come to resemble Mr Bennett from Pride and Prejudice.
Eddie is a comedian and musician who has appeared on television for many years, as well as in his stage shows. He has written a satirical musical about cricketer Shane Warne which won multiple awards, and was named Best Entertainer in the Bulletin‘s 100 Brightest Australians for his caustic lyrics, impeccable timing and boy-next-door looks. He currently plays Mick Holland on the Channel 10 series Offspring; Eddie’s fellow cast member Kat Stewart welcomed her own baby, Archie, last month.
Lucy is a strategic planner with advertising firm Saatchi & Saatchi. She and Eddie met in 2006, and were married last year.
Lottie Perfect’s middle name seems a definite nod to her mother, and as we had a celebrity baby called Lux Edward last year, the name Lux seems to be in unisex territory.
(In case you were wondering, Perfect is Eddie’s real name and not a stage name).

I met Eddie when he was more into his band and we exchanged stories about funny names. He pulled out his driver’s licence to prove it to me…. now I think he may have pulled out an 18+ card – does Eddie even have a licence? I had a great time talking to him before he was famous and he was very down to earth. Just have to get to one of his shows some day.
I think of Lottie as a nickname for Charlotte and Kitty a nickname for Katherine
Aah! Lottie Lux is infinitely cool, and Kitty is fantastic too. They’re a bit matchy together but still a super cute sibset. Is Perfect Eddie’s real last name?
Yes, it actually says so in the last line!
I, too, love the combination of Lottie Lux – slightly unexpected combination of names but rather sweet when put together.
Lottie Lux is wonderful. Kitty Marie is sweet too.
Lottie Lux is cute. What is Kitty’s middle name?
She is named Kitty Marie. 🙂
Cute!
