Paul Walker’s brother Cody Walker has named his newborn son after the late actor.

Cody says he was devastated when Paul – best known for his role as Brian O’Conner in the Fast and Furious franchise, died in a fiery car crash aged 40 a decade ago this year.

He also says he just felt now was the appropriate time.

When Paul died, he had not finished filming his role in Furious 7, which was released after a series of rewrites and stand-ins – who included Cody and his brother Caleb.

Paul’s daughter, Meadow, who was 15 when her dad died, runs the Paul Walker Foundation in his memory and last year adds she watches his films for comfort.

Meadow adds they always say the first thing you forget about someone is their voice, so she is fortunate enough to have his voice in many movies.
