"They are shooting around it," Ortiz said. "It's been an interesting journey."

As for the upcoming blessed event, Ortiz says she and husband Noah Lebenzon are perusing possible names. She told Latina.com whatever they settle on will reflect her heritage.

"It has to be Spanish," she said in an e-mail. "But something non-speakers can pronounce without mauling."
