Mark Zuckerberg is going on paternity leave after he and his wife, Priscilla Chan, welcomed their second daughter.

They named the new baby August, the Facebook Inc. chief executive officer wrote in a Facebook post on Monday, possibly in reference to the Roman emperor Augustus and the month of her birth. The couple’s older daughter is named Maxima, also evoking ancient Rome.
