Elton John and David Furnish announced the birth of their second son on the singer's website Wednesday.
"Elton and David are very pleased to announce the birth of their child Elijah Joseph Daniel Furnish-John on Friday, January 11."
Hello! magazine had the rest of the scoop.
Elijah, brother to 2-year-old Zachary Jackson Levon Furnish-John, weighed in at 8 pounds 4 ounces, was born in L.A. and came via the same surrogate the couple used for Zachary's birth, the magazine said.
"The birth of our second son completes our family in a most precious and perfect way," said the parents, who joined in a civil union in 2005.
As with their first son, Elijah's full name contains a reference to one of John's most famous songs.
