NEW YORK (AP) -- Comedian/magician Penn Jillette's latest stunt did not involve his usual sidekick, Teller: He became the father of a baby girl.

Jillette, 50, and his wife Emily, 39, welcomed Moxie CrimeFighter Jillette on Friday, according to publicist Glenn Schwartz. It was the first child for the couple, who married last year.

"We chose her middle name because when she's pulled over for speeding she can say, `But officer, we're on the same side,'" Jillette explained. "`My middle name is CrimeFighter.'"

The typically mute Teller had no comment on the new arrival.

Penn & Teller currently star in their own series on Showtime, and headline nightly in Las Vegas at the Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino.

Man, all of these celebs are having kids when they're like 50+. That really sucks.

Man, all of these celebs are having kids when they're like 50+. That really sucks.

I think they just want to have a career before they have kids, which I can kinda-sorta understand. If you take care of yourself you've got a good 30-40 years after 50 so I don't think it's that big of a deal. Me, I want my kids out of the house before I'm 50. Got two kids and stopping there, so it'll happen when I'm 48.

That said, the kid will probably snap and kill him at age 16 for that name, so it doesn't really matter.
