From the second the duo announced they were expecting, fans joked that there was only one name they could possibly choose: Taylor. The couple shared a snap of their baby girl, born on September 16, to Instagram and confirmed her name was indeed inspired by her parents… sort of. ‘One week loving our sweet little Lenny🤍,’ penned Taylor, 34, and Tay, 29, adding that her full name was Lennon Taylor Lautner. The tot was wearing a light pink onesie, with her face not in frame, lying beside an embroidered image of a teddy bear and her name. The post was flooded with congratulations from friends and fans, including fellow Twilight stars such as Jackson Rathbone, who wrote: ‘Yes!!!! Congrats ya’ll.’ The couple named her Lennon Taylor Lautner (Picture: Cover Images) Nikki Reed, aka Rosalee Cullen, said: ‘😭🥹❤️ oh be still my heart. Congratulations to you both, I’m so so happy for you. Baby Lenny, Auntie Nik is ready to give you all the snuggles 🥰.’ The official Twilight page and Christina Perri, whose hit song A Thousand Years was written for the saga, also commented congratulations to the couple. Mackenzie Foy, who played Renesmee in Breaking Dawn Part 2, added: ‘Congratulations guys!!💜💜.’ Disney star Bradley Perry and his wife Natasha called Lennon ‘perfect’ and ‘angel baby’ while Daniella Monet said ‘Congrats mama.’ Taylor’s sister Makena Lautner Moore proudly said ‘my NIECE’ and dubbed the little one the ‘most perfect angel ever!!’ Last month on the Call Her Daddy podcast, Tay joked that fans might ‘cancel’ her if they didn’t include the name. The couple tied the knot in 2022 after being introduced by his sister (Picture: Chelsea Lauren/Shutterstock) They revealed they were expecting a baby girl in July (Picture: Tay Lautner/Instagram) The Lautners revealed they were expecting in an Instagram post in March, which was captioned: ‘What’s better than two Taylor Lautners?’ They posed in a grassy field, with Tay holding up sonograms and Taylor kissing her baby bump. Makena had introduced the couple, as she and Tay are best friends and had even told her brother that she had ‘found his future wife’ after meeting her. On the Kelly Clarkson Show, the Valentine’s Day actor shared: ‘It’s just me and my sister so we’re super close, and she always said that she was gonna introduce me to my future wife, and I was like, “Sure.” ‘I love game nights. She’s like, “Throw a game night, invite me and some of my friends over, and I’ll bring Tay. She’ll just be one of them, and you guys can just meet.” We hit it off, and the rest is history.’ The Lautners tied the knot in November 2022 at a winery outside of Paso Robles, California, with just 90 guests in attendance.
