Flight of the Conchords comedian Jemaine Clement has become a father.
Clement's wife, Wellington actress and playwright Miranda Manasiadis, gave birth to a son, Sophocles Iraia Manasiadis Clement, last month in New York.
Clement was filming the second season of the hit Conchords series in New York at
the time.
Sophocles is believed to have been named after one of Manasiadis's Greek grandfathers. While Iraria is the name of one of Clement's grandparents.
The couple married in Los Angeles earlier this year.
