“Tiny Tim, who trilled his way to fame with his high‐pitched rendition of “Tiptoe Through the Tulips,” has named his daughter, born last Monday, Tulip Victoria Khaury.”

“Neil and Clare are extremely happy to announce the safe arrival of their daughter Evangeline Tulip born Tuesday, June 2, 2009, at 10.04am, weighing 8lb. 2oz.”
