LOS ANGELES, Calif. --

Now that Jennifer Lopez has finally confirmed she and Marc Anthony are expecting their first child together, putting an end to Hollywood’s worst kept secret, it’s time to fill in the rest of the details.

Should the gift be blue or pink?

Will the child be a Capricorn or a Gemini?

And what will the happy couple name their little bundle of joy?

The odds makers at the online gaming site Bodog.com seem to think they have a pretty good idea about all of those questions, and now, they’re giving everyone else the chance to put their money where their mouth is, offering odds on their best baby guesses.

When it comes to the sex of the baby, Bodog suggests it’s slightly more likely to be a girl than a boy for J.Lo and Marc. Meanwhile, according to the odds posted on their site, the baby is most likely to be born in April (2:1 odds), with May (2.5:1) a close second.

A baby born before March or after July would provide the biggest payday to the respective gambler, offering 5:1 odds for either pick.

When it comes to naming the little tyke, Bodog offers odds on a slew of names. However, they have dubbed Marco (4:1 odds) and Maria (5:1 odds) as the favorites.

Also on the list of possible wagers are Antonio (5.5:1), Rosario (7:1), Felipe (8:1), Selena (9:1) and Enrique (10:1).

Or perhaps, they’ll keep it in the family naming the child after J.Lo’s mom Guadalupe (9:1) or Marc’s mom, Guillermina (10:1).

For those who prefer the long shots, the name Ben is listed at 15:1 odds and Sean is listed at 20:1 odds.

But sorry to all the high rollers out there – Bodog won’t accept any wager larger than $50 on any of these bets.

The couple confirmed months of rumors on November 7, when they announced the baby news during a concert in Miami.
