“I am literally the happiest I’ve ever been in my entire life at this moment,” Duff gushed to the outlet, adding that the baby has “sleeping a little” and “eating a bunch.”
Duff and Johnna, who have been married since 2019, are also parents to 5-year-old daughter Josephine.
“I think that I’m most excited about, you know, getting a shot at just raising a real good little man,” Duff said of raising first son.
Duff also said that Josephine has been “so excited” about becoming a big sister.
“Leading up to Sam being born, she was, like, making piles of all her stuffies that she wanted to give him and drawing him little pictures to hang in his room,” Duff shared. “I was, like, building the crib and she wanted to put stuff in there and she wants to put books on this bookshelf.”
As for the inspiration behind Samurai Jack‘s name, Duff said the baby isn’t named after the TV character fans might assume.
“We didn’t name our son after Samurai Jack, the cartoon,” Duff insisted, adding that he’s a “huge fan” of the series’ creator, Genndy Tartakovsky.
“It just kind of worked out that way,” he explained. “When I was a kid, the coolest dude that we knew when I was younger, his name was Sam. He was the first one to build a skateboard ramp of all of our friends. He was the best skater. He was the best surfer. He always threw the biggest tricks.”
“And I was like, ‘I’m gonna name my son Sam, because Sam’s a cool name,’” Duff added. “And I was like, ‘What if instead of, like, Samuel, or Sam, his actual name on his birth certificate was Samurai?”
