Prime Minister Boris Johnson and fiancee Carrie Symonds named their baby boy Wilfred Lawrie Nicholas Johnson in honor of their grandfathe­rs and doctors who saved the U.K. leader’s life when he was hospitaliz­ed with COVID-19.

Symonds made the announceme­nt on Instagram Saturday, posting a picture of her cradling her 3-day-old son and explaining the name choice.

The birth came days after Johnson returned to work following his hospitaliz­ation for the coronaviru­s. He spent a week at London’s St. Thomas’ hospital, including three nights in intensive care.

Johnson was present for the birth but back at 10 Downing St. within hours.
