Cody Walker honored his late brother Paul Walker following the birth of his third child in a touching nod to the actor to hold on the family name.
Paul, who was best known for his role as Brian O’Conner within the “Fast and Furious” franchise, died in a automobile crash in 2013. He was 40 years old.
Cody, 34, and his wife Felicia Knox named their third child Paul Barrett, or “Bear,” nearly a decade after the actor’s horrific accident.
‘This November will mark 10 years since we lost my brother, Paul, and I just felt now was the suitable time,” Cody told People.
“My brother, Caleb, and I are each done having children. My brother, Paul, was Paul William Walker IV and that name goes back 4 generations.”
“Throughout the family, he went by ‘little Paul’ or ‘Paul 4,’ though he quickly outgrew our father in height. It was vital to me to have that name carry on,” Cody added.
Cody, who stepped in to assist finish “Furious 7” filming after Paul’s death, welcomed his third child on April 30.
It took the couple lower than 24 hours to make a decision on a reputation for his or her newborn.
Cody already shares five-year-old daughter Remi Rogue and two-year-old son Colt with Knox, whom he wed in 2015.
It comes as Paul’s daughter Meadow Walker shared signs she receives from her late father nearly 10 years after his tragic death.
Meadow — Paul’s only child — was just 15 on the time of the tragic accident in 2013.
“For me, it’s numbers, 4 and 7 are my dad’s favorite numbers,” the 24-year-old model told E! News.
“And I swear each time I’m doubting anything or each time I’m in an argument with someone or anything, I start seeing 4 and 7 in all places. So I all the time know that it’s him.”
Meadow recently followed in her father’s footsteps as she made a cameo appearance within the tenth installment of the “Fast & Furious” franchise, “Fast X” — released last week.
“For me that is super exciting and he could be amazed that this is occurring,” she shared earlier this month.
