Pregnancy Makes Ugly Betty's Ana Ortiz Psychic
Originally posted 04/28/2009 08:25AM
Since becoming pregnant with her first child – due the end of July – Ugly Betty star Ana Ortiz has gained something unexpected: psychic powers.
"Before I found out I was having a girl I dreamt that I was having a girl," Ortiz, 38, told PEOPLE at the Point Honors gala in New York City Monday. "I even dreamt what her name was, so I guess that name should be her real name."
While Ortiz remained mum on the baby's name – except for joking, "It's going to be Watermelon" – she did say, "We have a short list, but when we see her, hopefully, one of those names will fit. I'm hoping at least for a Latina flavor to it. But we'll see."

It's baby talk all the time now on the Ugly Betty set.
Mark Indelicato tells PEOPLE that everyone couldn't wait for a first look at costar Rebecca Romjin's 6-week-old twins with husband Jerry O'Connell.
"We got pictures of Dolly and Charlie," Indelicato says at the Cinema Society screening of He's Just Not That Into You. "They are beautiful. Charlie is literally bigger than Dolly. Charlie's face is round and shmushy."
Of course, Jerry and Rebecca's twins should prepare for some competition for attention since costar Ana Ortiz is expecting her own bundle of joy.
