Flight of the Conchords Kiwi comedy star Jemaine Clement and his new wife are celebrating the birth of their first child together. Clement's wife, Wellington actress and playwright Miranda Manasiadis, gave birth to their son, Sophocles Iraia Manasiadis Clement, in New York last month. Clement was in the middle of filming the second season of the hit comedy show in New York.

Sophocles was named after one of Manasiadis's Greek grandfathers. Iraia is understood to be the name of one of Clement's grandparents.

Sophocles has been described as magnificently cute, with his father's lips.
