Julia Roberts is said to be "thrilled" after giving birth to twins.

Her publicist revealed that she and cameraman husband Danny Moder had named the boy and girl Phinnaeus and Hazel.

Julia, 37, was desperate for children and had used IVF treatment to conceive reports The Sun.

But she was confined to bed last month after experiencing a series of early contractions. She was not due to give birth until early January.

Her spokeswoman in Los Angeles said: "Mother and babies are doing great." But she did not release the twins' weights or other details.

Julia, who won the best actress Oscar in 2001 for her role in Erin Brockovich, has previously told how twins run in her family.

The star has vowed to take five years off work to raise her children.

Phineas(sp)-poor kid!!!!!!!!!!

Hope she does take time off work-hate it when stars have kids then dump em on a nanny after a week or two.

Saw the full names on another story:

Hazel Patricia Moder and Phinnaeus Walter Moder.

You never know, she may start a trend for nurseries full of little Finnaeus's ......
or he can call himself Phil or Finn .....

Hope they are all doing well, anyway. My twin nephews were 10 weeks prem, and 16 yrs on they are both strapping lads.
