Methodist Mansfield Medical Center in Mansfield, Texas, experienced a rare occurrence in their maternity ward yesterday when a baby born in the middle of a once-in-a-lifetime eclipse was given a truly epic moniker.

Sol Celeste Alvarez was born on Monday, April 8 at 1:04pm.

Sol is the Spanish word for sun, perfectly encapsulating the celestial spectacle.

The 6-pound, 7-ounce baby girl also has a 4-year-old sister named Luna.

Luna is the word for moon, creating a stellar pair with Sol.

The little one's due date was scheduled for next week; however, the baby decided to grace the world with her entrance on an equally iconic day.

Fox4 News reported that mother Alicia and baby Sol are said to be doing well.

North America also experienced its second total solar eclipse in seven years.

A total solar eclipse is when the moon completely blocks out the sun, creating a mesmerizing darkening of the sky along its path of totality.

The next total solar eclipse won't be visible again from the contiguous US until August 22, 2044, but totality will only occur over North Dakota and Montana, according to CNN.
