Limbless Christian evangelist Nick Vujicic and his wife Kanae are expecting their second child, and now the couple has decided on a name for their new son.

On his Facebook page, Vujicic shared, "We have landed on a name for our second boy....Dejan Levi Vujicic (pronounced Deyan). We are between ten and eleven weeks away from his arrival. Thank you for your love and prayers."

It was also on Facebook that the happy couple made the announcement of their pregnancy. Vujicic shared two photos of him, his wife, and son Kiyoshi playing around the house with huge smiles on their faces. What's more, Kiyoshi even had on a "MOST AWESOME BIG BROTHER" long-sleeved shirt.

Vujicic wrote, "What's that on Kiyoshi's shirt?? Indeed Kiyoshi will be the MOST AWESOME BIG BROTHER!!! We (are) roughly twelve weeks pregnant!! Thank You Lord for this precious and amazing gift and blessing!! Thank you all for your love, prayers and support!"

Vujicic is an Australian Christian who was born with tetra-amelia syndrome, a rare disorder that leaves a person limbless. Because of this, Vujicic grew up different from his peers. He struggled not only physically, but also mentally and emotionally, and it was only because of his deep-rooted faith in God that the limbless evangelist managed to turn his disability into a blessing.

At the age of 17, he started his own non-profit organization called Life Without Limbs, and he now goes around worldwide as a motivational speaker, sharing with others how he managed to find hope and meaning in life despite his disability.

"I have been extremely humbled by the continuous opportunities that the Lord has given me to share my testimony. My greatest joy in this life is to introduce Jesus to those I meet and tell them of His great desire to get to know them personally by allowing Him to become their Lord and Savior. That's what Life Without Limbs is all about," Vujicic said.
