NASCAR driver Marcos Ambrose recently decided to skip his Nextel Cup debut and instead, welcomed home a baby girl. Marcos' wife, Sonja, gave birth Sunday afternoon to Adelaide Elizabeth.

Why Adelaide? Marcos is a proud member of Team Australia and we can only assume he and his wife took into account the city of Adelaide, Australia when naming the new baby girl. Adelaide, growing in popularity, means "noble type" and is fittingly paired with Elizabeth, born by the Queen of England (who, incidentally, rules over Australia as well). A very regal name for the newborn. Congratulations to the Ambrose family.
