The former professional wrestler turned actor, known professionally as 'The Rock' and his long-term girlfriend Lauren Hashian welcomed their new baby on Wednesday (16.12.15).

According to RadarOnline.com, Dwayne and Lauren have decided on the 'Aladdin' inspired moniker for their little girl.

The couple had not been quite prepared for Jasmine's arrival as she was born a ''couple of weeks early'', a source told the outlet.

She weighed in at around 5lbs and both ''mother and daughter are doing great''.

The source added: ''Dwayne, Lauren and their families are over the moon. They can't wait to spend Christmas with their brand new daughter!''

Dwayne is already father to 14-year-old daughter Simone but this is his first child with Lauren.

The couple announced the pregnancy news in September, with Dwayne revealing last month they were expecting a girl.

He posted a picture of himself cradling Lauren's baby bump, and captioned the image: ''I was raised by and live with amazing and strong women, so the universe felt we needed one more... IT'S A BABY GIRL!! THANK YOU guys so much for the awesome support and love you've sent @laurenhashianofficial and myself from around the world. We're so grateful for this blessing and thrilled to share the news with y'all. (sic)''
