The 55-year-old "The Gunman" actor thought of naming his son "Steak," reported E! online.
"My dad wanted to name me Steak, the food, because he loves it so much. But my mom was never going to go for it. What they told me is that I hopped in her stomach, I didn't kick, so they went with that," Hopper said.
Hopper was born to Penn and actress Robin Wright in August 1993.
