Lisa Marie Presley names twins

Lisa Marie Presley has named her newborn twin daughters Finley and Harper.

The 40-year-old singer – who welcomed the babies into the world, weighing 5 lbs 15 oz and 5 lbs 2 oz, after having a caesarean section last Tuesday (07.10.08) – chose the names with husband Michael Lockwood, her spokesperson Cindy Guagenti has confirmed.

After revealing Lisa had given birth, Cindy added: "The babies and mom are happy and healthy and resting at home."

The twins are Lisa Marie's first children with husband Michael Lockwood, 47. She also has two children, 19-year-old daughter Riley and 15-year-old son Benjamin, with ex-husband musician Danny Keough.

Lisa Marie's mother Priscilla revealed the pregnancy following speculation about her daughter's weight gain. She said: "She wanted it really to be kept a secret for a long time, and I think women should, because they should be able to announce what they're having and when it's time to make the announcement."
