Are Bec and Lleyton doing the right thing by asking fans to sign up to the text service?
"'The name of the new addition will be sent through Text a Star later in the week."
 
Following the announcement of the birth of their third child, Lleyton and Bec Hewitt are letting fans in on the name of their new baby girl, but it won't be free.

The pair are asking fans to sign up to a premium SMS service called "Text a Star" to find out the name of their third child at the cost of a $2 text message.

The service was designed to allow fans to get an insight into the career and life of their favourite sports star.

Lleyton used the service to announce the arrival of his third child saying: "Bec, Mia, Cruz and I welcomed a beautiful baby girl into our family last Tuesday. Mum and baby are great! Dad, big sister and brother elated."

"'The name of the new addition will be sent through Text a Star later in the week."

It is unclear how much the couple will profit from the service.

If you have looked into these peoples past & FAILED ventures, then it would come as NO surprize them trying to make a $ off their kids.
We I can save you all $2 and tell you they named her 'Ava Sydney"
How silly! I wont be spending my money on finding out the name of their baby. Couldnt care less. Good luck to them.
It obvious the name of the baby is "Youblewitt"
good on them for doing $2 a text its something different its no 1 elses business... i think bek and leyton would br gr8 parents we all get short on cash and with 3 children yer it would cost alot im a mother of 2 kids and there not cheap... GOOD ON THEM I HOPE IT ALL WORKS OUT
Remember bec its your husbands money that he has won during his tennis career your just happy spending it ...and as for the name of the baby who gives two bloody hoots what it is called !!!!!
Just an idea......... how about instead of people wasting $2 on these pair of losers......... give your $2 to a charity like Lifeline or the Cancer Council. Save it for McHappy Day......... Then you can feel proud to be not only doing something for yourself but for others and the community........ rather than time wasters.
Silly people charging $2- to find out the name. Should have charged $3.95 to vote for the favourite name, let people think they are involved and they will pay pay pay!!! Bec and Lleyton call me before you decide on your next money-making venture and i'll tell you how to get more money from the suckers.
it's Ava Sydney.
Who really cares what the name is...I can assure you I don't!!!
