But Aldean couldn’t help raving about welcoming a new addition. “It’s gonna be kind of crazy around my house. Three daughters and a son,” he enthused. “We’re simply outnumbered. Me and Memphis are definitely outnumbered. It’s gonna be fun, man. We’re excited.”
“I love being a dad,” he continued. “I think that’s probably the coolestthing you can be is a parent andraise kids and see what they turn into.”
Having a big family is meaningful to Aldean because he grew up without many nuclear relatives. “My mom’s an only child, and I had one half-sister who was seven years younger than me that was from my dad’s second marriage. We didn’t grow up in the same house,” he explained.
“Forme to have a big family like this, this growing family, it’s pretty cool,” Aldean added.
Navyis getting a unique monikerdue in part to Aldean’s childhood grievances.
“My name was so common growing up. There were always five Jasons in my class, which I thought was so annoying,” he said. “So I just wanted [my kids] to have names that weren’t super weird but they were just different enough.”
“We created a list and both were throwing names in there throughout the past few months and Navy happened to be the one we liked the most,” Brittanytold PEOPLE earlier this month. “I chose Rome because I really wanted to name our son Roman but Jason wasn’t a fan so this was my way of sliding that in there!”
