Victoria gave birth to the 7 lbs., 10 oz. baby early Sunday morning at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles. The couple named their child Harper Seven.

Harper is an old English name Victoria has always been fond of, and seven is considered a lucky spiritual number, according to People. The number seven was certainly significant in the birth of Harper... she weighed 7 lbs (10 oz.) in the seventh hour, in the seventh month, on the seventh day of the week! David had also worn a number seven shirt when he played soccer for Manchester United.

The parents of three sons -- Brooklyn, 12, Romeo, 8, and Cruz, 6 -- announced they were expecting a girl in March.

"Brooklyn, Romeo and Cruz are excited to welcome their new baby sister to the family," a Beckham spokesperson told "Extra."

David recently talked with "Extra" about how protective he will be with his baby girl. He responded, "I don't know. I'm pretty protective over my sons, but she's going to obviously have three boys to look after her, so she's going to be well protected."
