Adele has named her baby boy Angelo James Konecki.

Following speculation the 24-year-old singer and her fiance Simon Konecki - who have kept their child's name a secret since his birth in October - had called their little one Angelo after she was spotted wearing a gold necklace with the moniker on, insiders have confirmed their son's middle name is James.

A source told The Sun newspaper: 'They've called him Angelo James. What a lovely name.

'They wanted to keep their choice quiet until they were ready, and wearing the necklace suggests she now is. It is only a name.'

While the significance of the name Angelo is still not known, the couple were reportedly considering calling him John after the 'Skyfall' hitmaker's grandfather.

The source added: 'They were supposedly mulling over John, after Adele's grandfather, though.'

Earlier this month, Adele refused to reveal her child's moniker at the Golden Globes - where she made her first official public appearance since giving birth - because she was 'not ready', but admitted she refers to him as 'Little Peanut'.

When asked the name of her baby, she replied: 'It's too personal and intimate. I'm not ready.'

But she added: 'I just call him Little Peanut.'
