This week, Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon welcomed their brand new baby twins into the world, and we finally have a chance to know them by name -- Moroccan and Monroe.

According to CNN, their son Moroccan Scott Cannon -- Scott being Nick Cannon's middle name as well as his grandmother's maiden name -- has commandeered the top floor of the couple's Manhattan apartment, aptly named the Moroccan room, after its decor.

Their daughter Monroe Cannon is named after the infamous Marilyn Monroe. The newborn has no middle name just like her mother. Cindi Berger, Carey's representative told CNN, "It has been a long, emotional journey for this family, and I couldn't be happier for all of them."

The twins were born this past Saturday (April 30) in Los Angeles, Calif. Nick Cannon tweeted that day, "My wife just gave me the most incredible anniversary gift ever in life! I won't ever be able to top this!"
