During a Thursday night chat with Jimmy Fallon for the host's at-home Tonight Show edition, the LEGO Masters host opened up about his new baby boy Alexander Denison, whom he and girlfriend Alessandra Brawn welcomed on May 27.

"We call him Denny," said Arnett, 50. "I know what you're [gonna say] — not after the fast-food chain."

"Why not?!" asked Fallon, 45.

"Everybody who knows me knows that I'm a fan of the Grand Slam breakfast," replied his guest, joking with a wink of why he hasn't tied the baby boy's moniker to the famed diner, "The price hasn't been right … yet."
