As a way of paying tribute to the late actor, Glen Quinn, who played Mark on the original show, Gilbert chose to name her son after the original character.
The text conversation starts with Gilbert saying, "what do you think we named our baby boy. Oh maybe...Mark" To which Galecki responded, "Oh DEFINITELY Mark."
Quinn passed away in 2002 from a drug overdose in Los Angeles. The actor lives on through this lovely tribute in the 'Roseanne' reboot, airing Tuesday at 8pm PST on ABC.
