Anyone surprised that it is a GIRL!!! And what was with the weird names that Rachel was giving? Isn't that Phoebe's job? I was a very tiny bit surprised because I thought that she was having TWIN GIRLS!!! From the promo from last week I could have sworn that she put an s at the end of girl. Which they totally gave away in the promo! Comments?

I just finished watching my taping of 813(i watched it back to back with the Friends that is on at 11pm...). I thought Joey was real cute tonight and once again the "gay" theme is brought to Friends. And always pointing to Chandler...hehe.

I just got the "baby Ruth" joke after reading XMusicFreak820's review. I'm slow....lol.

did anyone else notice that they are considering using Gellar as the baby's last name? Who knows if it will actually stick, but I thought it was great that they are actually considering it.

I didn't even read it that they are simply considering it. I know they didn't address it specifically, but when Ross said something about "little Ruthie Gellar," Rachel didn't blink. It struck me that it was just assumed the baby's last name will be Gellar. Maybe they will address it more specifically later. Scott

The only reason I said "considering" is because you never know if in a future episode all of a sudden it changes and they fight over it or they just don't mention it again and it turns out to be Green. I was basically trying to cover my butt on that one. it just made me remember the small little argument on here before about what tha baby's last name would be.

BTW, what is Ben's last name anyways?

Amy and DaveShell

I did a search and I only came up with Ben Gellar, so I am assuming that they named him Gellar after all.

Wonder what Ben will think about having a baby sister?

I've been thinking about that too as well as Jack and Judy Geller's reaction to the news that they're having a granddaugther courtesy of Ross and Rachel. As for Rachel's obnoxious and stubborn-to-the-core father, Leonard, he should accept the fact that his daugther's going to be a (single) mother wheather he likes it or not.

Why split hairs? It's going to be Ben's sister -- not a half of anything. My two sons don't have the same father, but they are just as close as two FULL brothers could be. There's never been any half whatever to it. ~~ Kathy

ITA. My sister is adopted (came home from the hospital to us). I certainly don't of her as "my adopted sister" and my brother as my "real brother"

A little enlightenment please.

It is his half-sister. And whats pedantic? Surely it doesn't mean "anal" because i am the most "un-anal" of all in the ng.

Biologically, it's his half sister....but, why do you want to focus on that aspect? Half brothers and sisters can be just as close as full brothers and sisters. The issue here is the baby being loved by all concerned and I feel quite sure Ross will refer to this new baby girl as Ben's SISTER, not half-sister or anything like that. It almost sounds like you would like to see Ben shun this baby because they aren't FULL siblings. That's not only anal but it's very shallow.

FYI -- Pedantic: finicky, nit-picking, hair splitting, dull ~~ Kathy

SofyaKathy

I didn't say anything about them not being just as close as full siblings. I said its his half-sister, that is all. Very un-anal.

I totally get you. You were just using it in its technical sense, like one might refer to someone as a cousin or neice, or friend, but that doesn't mean one can't be as close to them as one would to a 'full' sibling. [1] You made no aspersions as to how she would be treated by Ben.

[1] I didn't want to use "one" since it's all posh sounding, but "you" would've been confusing.

Have they even told Ben that he would be a big brother?

I don't know about twins, but this fits with history. Remember when Ross and Rachel were dating and they had the conversation about Ross thinking about thier future? Ross said he imagined they would have two children, one of each gender, but the first would be a girl so Ben wouldn't feel too competitive. Scott

Yes...and do you remember what the name he picked out for a girl was then??? EMILY...

Can't have that name now!

We may finally meet Rachel's other sister. She may want to actually see Rcahel's new baby (when she has it). I think that wiuld be great to finally see the whole Green family.
