Amy Schumer shockingly discovered that her 11-month-old son’s name resembled genital – prompting her to change his name.
The I Feel Pretty actress confirmed the news on her podcast, Amy Schumer Presents 3 Girls, 1 Keith.
Amy and husband Chris Fisher named their son after Amy’s pal and fellow comedian, Dave Attel.
Speaking to pal Claudia O’Doherty, the 38-year-old revealed her son’s new name, Gene David Fischer after realising his name was somewhat unusual.
The comedian said: “So do you guys know that Gene, our baby’s name is officially changed? It’s now Gene David Fischer.
“It was Gene Attell Fischer but we realised that we by accident named our son, ‘genital.'”

Claudia, 36, added that her mum had already figured out Amy’s mistake.
She went on to say: “My mom pointed that out to me actually. My mom was like, ‘Amy’s called her son genital.’
“And I was like, ‘What are you talking about?’ And then, she was right.”

It’s believed that Gene’s first name is also a tribute to the late Gene Wilder.
Amy and Chris welcomed Gene into their family after getting hitched in 2018.
She has previously opened up about her struggle with IVF as she hopes to give Gene a sibling.

“My number is in my bio.”
“We are freezing my eggs and figuring out what to do to give Gene a sibling.
