Nick Carter Revealed His New Baby’s Name
Nick Carter finally got around to announcing that his wife Lauren Kitt Carter had their second baby. For someone who practically has the press on speed-dial these days, Nick shocked the world by keeping the baby’s birth a secret for a whole week. And he didn’t even make the announcement through TMZ or Page Six or anything – he just threw up a picture on Instagram. AND! His new baby shares the same name as a multiple Oscar-nominated indie actress. Who is this Nick Carter, and why isn’t he posting, “Yeah boyeee, I straight-up just got another baby!” while eating wings from the hospital room on Snapchat?
After posting a picture of his new baby on Instagram three days ago, Nick posted another one with a caption thanking his wife Lauren, who had already been through one miscarriage in their attempt to give their 3-year-old son Odin a sibling. He also included a series of hashtags celebrating #freedom, #mommy, and #newbaby, as well as Baby’s First Official Hashtag, which tells us that Nick’s new baby is named Saoirse Reign Carter.
So clearly, Nick and Lauren were planning on naming their baby Saoirse, which they sadly lost, but came back to them (according to Nick). As for the name, Nick doesn’t explain how they settled on Saoirse. The most famous Saoirse, and I would argue the only Saoirse most of us know, is Saoirse Ronan.
Just to note, neither Nick or Lauren are from Ireland, and Saoirse is not a common name over here in North America. So the best of luck to little Saoirse Reign, who will spend a lot of time telling people that it’s not pronounced Say-oh-reese. But despite that lifelong headache, having a complicated name will work out in her favor. A tricky spelling means is like built-in identity theft protection. Because you just never know if Uncle Aaron Carter will get any shady, fraudulent ideas and try to take out a credit card in her name to pay for his next round of tattoo work.
