Hollywood hunk Matthew McConaughey wants to name his unborn son after his favourite beer.

The Fool's Gold star - who is expecting his first baby with girlfriend Camila Alves - is planning to pay tribute to his beloved alcoholic beverage, just like his brother, Rooster McConaughey

A source close to the actor said: "Matthew's older brother Michael named his second son Miller Lyte because he loved the beer so much. And Matthew loved the name so much he really wants to name his son after his favourite beer. He is thinking of going for Bud after Budweiser beer."

However, Brazilian model Camila is less than impressed with his choice of name.

The source added: "Camila is pretty old-fashioned. She hates the name and won't let Matthew push her into this."

If he goes ahead with his peculiar plan, Matthew won't be the first star to give his child an unusual name.

Coldplay star Chris Martin and his wife Gwyneth Paltrow named their daughter Apple, Michael Jackson's sons are called Prince Michael I and Prince Michael II, while Red Hot Chilli Peppers frontman Anthony Kiedis called his son Everly Bear.
