Robbie Williams documented his wife Ayda Field's labour in a number of YouTube videos so it's not surprising the couple chose to announce their son's name in the same way.
The Candy hitmaker posted a humorous video to his official account, showing Ayda pushing him and their son in a wheelchair out of hospital and captioned it, 'Charlton Valentine Williams has left the building.'
The couple already have daughter Theodora 'Teddy' Rose Williams, two, together and welcomed Charlton on Monday, with the tot weighing eight pounds and two ounces.
The video shows Ayda pushing a wheelchair through the hospital, and when she turns the corner, Robbie can be seen sitting in it with Charlton in his lap.
Robbie shared clips of Ayda's labour on his official YouTube account and later spoke about his 'astonishing' wife.
He said: 'I've never been more in love, and I've never been more proud of my wife.
She's been absolutely astonishing.' Robbie added: 'The universe has presented itself to us again and it's been a very emotional, amazing few hours and we're really happy and honoured that you experienced the journey with us.'
The 40-year-old singer married Ayda in 2010. Robbie had been entertaining his fans with amusing videos from the hospital room, including a video which showed him doing a rendition of Let It Go from the hit movie, Frozen, whilst his wife appeared to be giving birth.
One picture showed her on a bed wearing high heels with the words: 'When Ayda goes into labour she comes correct,' the funnyman wrote as he helps his wife get through the experience.
He also published videos showing the pair of them dancing in their hospital room and another where he jokingly tells fans: 'It's quarter past seven, we've been here since ten o'clock last night and I know you're really concerned and worried and thinking about what's going on. I need you to know I'm doing great.'
Another video, called A River Runs Through It, appears to show a doctor preparing to break his actress wife's waters.
Williams broke the news on Twitter earlier this year that the couple, who live in Los Angeles with daughter Teddy, were expecting another baby.
The Stoke-born singer first hit the headlines in Take That but quit the group in 1995 and embarked on a hugely successful solo career.
He told The Sun on Sunday newspaper: 'I'm hooked on anything that takes my mind off me. 'It used to be food, drugs, sex, the internet, smoking or TV.
Now it's my daughter.' He said: 'I'm in a content stage of my life. That's because I'm married with a kid. I'm less reckless. I thought it was all about the cars and the clothes, the girls and the house. But none of that is for me. 'With a baby girl there's a point to it other than my own ego. I'm now tethered to the planet.'
