The couple is already parents to son Yrie.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;Our youngest son, Ydris Morrison Alcindor Cline, came bursting into the world on January 29, 2026. At birth, we weighed 7 lbs., 9 oz. and [measured] 19\u00be inches long,&#8221; Alcindor tells PEOPLE. &#8220;Ydris is pronounced &#8216;Idris&#8217; like Idris Elba, the actor.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;My husband Nate loved the name Idris, and I agreed that it was a great choice,&#8221; she continues. &#8220;The Y at the beginning of his name honors my grandmother, who named all three of her children with Y names, including my mom Yanick. Ydris&#8217; middle name honors my favorite writer, Toni Morrison, the Pulitzer Prize-winning author.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><strong>Never miss a story \u2014 sign up for <\/strong><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/people.com\/people-news-daily-newsletter-sign-up-8692701\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:PEOPLE's free daily newsletter;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \"><strong>PEOPLE&#8217;s free daily newsletter<\/strong><\/a><strong> to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer\u200b\u200b, from celebrity news to compelling human interest stories. \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<figure class=\"relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"relative\"><button aria-label=\"View larger image\" class=\"group absolute bottom-0 size-full\" data-ylk=\"elm:expand;itc:1;sec:image-lightbox;slk:lightbox-open;\"><span class=\"absolute bottom-3 right-3 rounded-full bg-white p-3 opacity-100 shadow-elevation-3 transition-opacity duration-300 group-hover:block group-hover:opacity-100 md:p-[17px] lg:bottom-6 lg:right-6 lg:bg-white\/90 lg:p-5 lg:opacity-0 lg:shadow-none\"><svg viewbox=\"0 0 22 22\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"size-4 lg:size-6\" width=\"22\" height=\"22\"><path d=\"M12.372.92c0-.506.41-.916.915-.916L21 0l-.004 7.712a.917.917 0 0 1-1.832 0V3.183l-6.827 6.828-1.349-1.348 6.828-6.828h-4.529a.915.915 0 0 1-.915-.915M1.835 17.816l6.828-6.828 1.349 1.349-6.829 6.827h4.529a.915.915 0 0 1 0 1.831L0 21l.004-7.713a.916.916 0 0 1 1.831 0z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><dialog aria-label=\"Modal Dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\" class=\"fixed bottom-0 left-0 right-0 top-0 z-4 size-full max-h-none max-w-none bg-white hidden\"\/><\/div><figcaption class=\"relative text-sm mt-1 pr-2.5\">\n<p><i>Yamiche Alcindor and her baby.<br \/>Credit: Mary Bosotu Photography<\/i><\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Alcindor says her son was born right after the major snow and ice storms on the East Coast at the end of January.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;Luckily, my husband Nate was able to clear half of the driveway while the snow was soft, so my mom, him and I were able to leave the house at the crack of dawn on January 29th to make it to the hospital in time,&#8221; explains Alcindor. &#8220;Ydris&#8217; birth was a beautiful moment as he immediately gave us a healthy amount of screaming.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;And Nate, a passionate fan of the Philadelphia Eagles, immediately sang the Eagles&#8217; fight song to him in the hospital room just seconds after his birth.
