"We love the country and love the name," the Avengers star said when he confirmed the news to USA Today. India Rose was born on Friday. She is the first child for both 28-year-old Chris and 35-year-old Elsa.
Chris is also starring in Snow White and the Huntman (man, this is an exciting time for him!) alongside Charlize Theron and Kristen Stewart. He remarked that he hopes the film will be inspiring to India one day, because of the strong female characters.

"Comign from a family of three boys, my mother was very much a feminist," he said. "When we would call each other 'girls,' she would say, 'What is wrong with a girl?' Girls can be strong, and you have to respect that. And we should encourage more strong female leads in films."
