Taylor Lautner and his wife, Tay Lautner, may soon add another Taylor to their family.
The Twilight star and his wife are expecting their first child together, a baby girl, and the couple has revealed that the name Taylor has not been ruled out.
The possibility came up when Tay, 29, appeared on a recent episode of the Call Her Daddy podcast with host Alex Cooper. During the conversation, she discussed her pregnancy, the pressure of choosing a name and the couple’s list of possible options.
Given that both parents are already named Taylor Lautner, the question was inevitable: could their daughter also be named Taylor?
According to Tay, the answer is not a definite no.
“It may be in the mix,” she said. “We will find out when the baby comes.”
Could There Soon Be Three Taylor Lautners?
Taylor and Tay’s relationship has long attracted attention because they share the same first and last names.
Now, as they prepare to welcome their first child, fans are wondering whether the couple might continue the unusual naming tradition.
Tay admitted that naming a child has brought more pressure than she expected.
She said she felt “so much pressure naming a human” and jokingly suggested that the internet might “cancel” her if she and Taylor decided not to name their daughter Taylor.
At the same time, Tay questioned whether fans would actually want the couple to make that decision.
“But I’m like, guys, are you really gonna want that name?” she said.
For now, the name remains one of several possibilities rather than a confirmed choice.
The Couple Has Several Names to Consider
Taylor and Tay have reportedly narrowed down their options but have not made their final decision.
According to Tay, the parents-to-be currently have around three to five names under consideration.
That means Taylor is not the only possibility for their daughter.
The couple is expected to make the final decision when their baby arrives.
Until then, fans will have to wait to see whether the Lautners decide to create what would surely be one of Hollywood’s most unusual family naming situations.
Taylor Was Also a Possible Name for a Baby Boy
The name Taylor has apparently been part of the couple’s parenting conversations for some time.
Tay revealed that if they had been expecting a boy, the couple would probably have considered naming him Taylor as well.
However, they had already discussed a way to avoid complete confusion.
The child would have been nicknamed TJ.
That plan changed after the couple revealed in June that they are expecting a baby girl.
Even so, the possibility of naming their daughter Taylor has remained part of the conversation.
From Dating to Marriage and Parenthood
Taylor Lautner and Tay Lautner first met and began dating in 2018.
Their relationship progressed quickly, with the couple becoming engaged in 2021 before getting married in November 2022.
Following their wedding, Tay took her husband’s surname, meaning the couple now share both the same first and last names.
Their friends reportedly developed an easy solution to avoid confusion.
According to the couple, people close to them refer to Taylor Lautner as “Boy Tay” and Tay Lautner as “Girl Tay.”
The nicknames have become part of the couple’s public story and have helped distinguish between the two when their identical names might otherwise create confusion.
The arrival of their first child could add another amusing chapter to that story.
Taylor Lautner’s Family Is Growing
Taylor Lautner, best known for playing Jacob Black in the Twilight franchise, and Tay are now preparing for one of the biggest milestones of their lives.
The couple confirmed their pregnancy earlier this year and later announced that they are expecting a daughter.
Their baby’s name, however, remains a closely guarded secret.
The fact that Taylor is “in the mix” has already sparked considerable interest among fans.
A family of three Taylor Lautners would certainly be memorable, although the couple appears to be giving serious consideration to several other names as well.
The Pressure of Choosing a Name
Tay’s comments also highlight something many new parents can relate to: choosing a name for a child can feel like a major responsibility.
For the Lautners, the decision comes with an additional layer of public attention because their own names have become one of the most recognisable details about their relationship.
The couple may joke about the internet’s expectations, but the final decision will ultimately be theirs.
Tay’s comments suggest that she and Taylor are keeping an open mind and are prepared to wait until their daughter is born before confirming her name.
Will Their Baby Girl Be Named Taylor?
At this point, the answer remains unknown.
Taylor Lautner and Tay Lautner have confirmed only that the name is still being considered.
They also have several other options, and their final choice may not be revealed until their daughter arrives.
For now, the couple’s fans can continue speculating about whether Boy Tay and Girl Tay could soon welcome Baby Tay.
Whatever they decide, Taylor and Tay are entering an exciting new stage of their relationship as they prepare to become parents for the first time.
And if they do ultimately choose the name Taylor, the Lautners may become one of the most uniquely named families in Hollywood.
