Meghan opened up about her baby's name ahead of his arrival in an interview with HELLO! in November.

Meghan and husband Daryl welcomed their first child in February
Before her son was born, the Lips Are Movin singer admitted to HELLO! that she and her husband were going "back and forth" on whether to share pictures of their son online.
"We are like 'we can't do that to him he doesn't have a say,' then we are like 'but it will be so cute we want to show everyone' so it is up in the air," she revealed.
Given the number of adorable snaps that Meghan has shared of her baby boy, it's safe to say the couple have opted to show him growing up.
