Charlize Theron and Seth MacFarlane have spent a lot of time together recently, during the film shoot for their upcoming comic western, “A Million Ways to Die in the West.” During that time, Theron had her young son on the set, and apparently the two-year old made quite an impression on MacFarlane, as he gave the tyke a nickname.

“Seth calls him ‘The Little Republican,” Theron said on Wednesday’s episode of “The Ellen Degeneres Show.” Even MacFarlane had forgotten the reason why he came up with the nickname.
“‘Cause he’s just always saying, ‘No,’” Theron explained. “Everything’s, ‘No.’ … He’s a little slow on the speech, but he’s hitting the ‘No’ really well.”
