Media mogul Simon Cowell has nicknamed his unborn baby 'Tad' after deciding his son looked like a tadpole in the ultrasound scan of his child with Lauren Silverman.

The 53-year-old 'X Factor' boss is awaiting the birth of his first child with his socialite girlfriend, reported Contactmusic.

"It really is a miracle. The baby was kind of unexpected. I hadn't planned for that. Once I got used to it, I thought, it's actually not such a big deal. I called it 'Tad' because it was like a little tadpole - just, like, moving around," Cowell told Terri Seymour during an interview.
 

Cowell is good with kids but admitted that he has no idea how to hold a baby.

"Once you see the baby on the scan for the first time you're just amazed that you're seeing something alive. It's incredible. Maybe I will take him or her go-karting. I'm good with kids, and I like kids.

"Babies, I have a little problem with because I never know how to hold them. But I like the idea of having a little buddy," he added.
