In a brief podcast session on Wednesday, Paris Hilton revealed the rationale for her son’s name.
Paris Hilton is revealing her baby son to the world.
The new mom announced the name she’s given to her baby son on her iHeartRadio show This Is Paris – Phoenix Barron Hilton Reum.
Hilton, 42, stated that she came up with the moniker ten years ago when reading an extract from her upcoming memoir, Paris.
“If all goes well, by the time you read this, Carter and I will have a baby boy. We plan to name him Phoenix, a name that I decided on years ago when I was searching cities, countries and states on a map looking for something to go with Paris and London,” she read.
“Phoenix has a few good pop culture reference points, but more importantly it’s the bird that flames out and then rises from the ashes to fly again,” she continued. “I want my son to grow up knowing that disaster and triumph go around and come around throughout our lives. And that this should give us great hope for the future.”
Later, she clarified that the child’s second name honours her late grandpa, Barron Hilton.
“He was always my mentor. I looked up to my grandfather so much, and we were so close, and I miss him every day,” she explained. “So, I really wanted to honor him by having his name in my first son’s name. So there you go. My beautiful baby boy’s name is Phoenix Barron Hilton Reum.”
Hilton started the podcast by gushing over her new baby and how precious this time has been for her and her husband, who already has a daughter with former reality star Laura Bellizzi.
“As you all know, Carter and I have been blessed with the arrival of our baby boy. He is such a precious angel, and we’re over the moon, so in love with him. We’re just so excited to start our family, and we can’t wait for you to see him,” the new mom shared.
“But for now, we’ve just been keeping everything really private. Not even my mom, my sisters, my best friend knew until he was over a week old,” Hilton revealed. It was really nice to have that with Carter, be our own journey together. I just feel like my life has been so public, and I’ve never really had anything be just mine.”
Later, Hilton added, “From the moment I laid eyes on him, my heart felt so full. I feel like my life is so complete now. I always wanted to be a mom.”
“I’m so happy I found the perfect partner. Carter, he is such an angel and such an incredible father,” she continued. “It’s so cute seeing them together and I just love this baby so much. He’s laying on my chest and looking up into my eyes, my heart just melts.”
After receiving her newborn son in January, Hilton voiced her enthusiasm for her future chapters exclusively to PEOPLE.
“It’s always been my dream to be a mother and I’m so happy that Carter and I found each other,” she told PEOPLE at the time. “We are so excited to start our family together and our hearts are exploding with love for our baby boy.”
Hilton shared the happy news on Instagram, along with a close-up shot of the baby grasping her thumb. “You are already loved beyond words 💙,” she added.
