According to the critical apparatus in N/A 27, the modification which
appears in a few MSS is not the _omission_ of GNNWMENON but the _addition_
of EK SOU

Moule's view [ Moule, C.F.D. An Idiom Book of N.T Greek. Cambridge: C.U.P,
1984.] at p.107 this is " a distinctly irregular usage " As against this
treatment of hAGION as a substantative, the commnetators prefer the
predicate use, either in a verbless clause " will be holy" " will be called
Son of God " or as the predicate of KLHQHSETAI
i.e as you quote:
>and

>Son of God".
The NAB also renders it as:
>>Therefore the child to be born will be called holy, the Son of God.<<
