How Many Children Does Mike Myers Have with His Wife?
In September 2011, the private couple welcomed their first child, a son, Spike Alan Myers. They did not reveal the arrival of their son until two weeks later when their representative confirmed the news.
Mike named his first son Spike because it was a common nickname in Liverpool for people whose names were Eric. He did this as a tribute to his father, Eric Myers, who died on November 22, 1991, after suffering from Alzheimer's.
It was also a tribute to some of the men he loved in the entertainment industry. The actor stated that he loved the comedian and writer Spike Milligan and the radio presenter, actor, and musician Spike Jones.

In October 2013, the couple confirmed they were expecting their second child but did not reveal their due date or the sex of the child. However, their publicist stated they were thrilled.
