"What&amp;apos;s in a name? A lot, for Harvey Weinstein&amp;apos;s newborn son. The tot&amp;apos;s moniker -- Dashiell, as the famed film exec confirmed during an appearance on CBS This Morning on Tuesday, April 23 -- is an ode not just to author Dashiell Hammett but also to Weinstein&amp;apos;s romantic history with wife Georgina Chapman.\r\nThe Oscar-winning producer revealed the inspiration behind his baby boy&amp;apos;s nomenclature to CBS This Morning hosts Charlie Rose, Norah O&amp;apos;Donnell, and Gayle King. According to him, the name Dashiell is a nod back to his very first date with the Marchesa designer.\r\n\r\n&amp;quot;What happened was...she walks into the restaurant and she trips and falls, just right on her butt,&amp;quot; he explained. &amp;quot;And I go, first, there is a God because that evened the playing field right away. And secondly, I said to her, &amp;apos;That was the opening scene when Myrna Loy walked into William Powell in The Thin Man.&amp;apos;&amp;quot;\r\nWeinstein proceeded to explain the scene from the 1934 comedy-mystery film, about retired private detective Nick Charles (Powell) and his wife Nora (Loy). The movie was based on the novel of the same name by Hammett.\r\n\r\n&amp;quot;I said, &amp;apos;Georgina, meet Dashiell Hammett,&amp;apos;&amp;quot; he recalled. Chapman later read The Thin Man, so the couple decided to pay tribute to the author when they welcomed their son on April 11.\r\nDashiell is Weinstein&amp;apos;s fifth child and only boy. The Weinstein Company co-chairman is also dad to daughters Lily, 17, Emma, 14, and Ruth, 10, with ex-wife Eve Chilton; and daughter India Pearl, 2, with Chapman.\r\n\r\n&amp;quot;If it was the major leagues, I&amp;apos;d be batting .200,&amp;quot; he quipped of his mostly female brood. &amp;quot;One for five.&amp;quot;\r\n&amp;quot;I am so tired of going to Forever 21 and Abercrombie,&amp;quot; he joked. &amp;quot;Sundays I wake up and I go, &amp;apos;The game&amp;apos;s on!&amp;apos; and [my daughters say], &amp;apos;At the mall, you&amp;apos;re driving us. Then they say, &amp;apos;Dad, park three miles [away], we don&amp;apos;t want to be seen with you. Meet us at the pizza store four miles over here because we&amp;apos;re embarrassed of you and you&amp;apos;re annoying.&amp;apos;&amp;quot;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
