Rihanna and A$AP Rocky's Newborn Baby Boy's Name Reportedly Revealed

The parents welcomed baby no. 2 over the summer.

It appears that the name of  Rihanna and A$AP Rocky’s newborn baby boy has been revealed.

In what reportedly is the birth certificate obtained by The Blast, the name of their newborn is Riot Rose Mayers. The document also cites the baby was born on August 1, 2023, at Cedars Sinai Hospital in Los Angeles at 7:41 a.m.

And if you’re thinking what we’re thinking, the little guy’s name appears to have a musical connection to his dad and a running theme with the letter R.

Last month, A$AP Rocky released his latest single, "Riot," though it has not been confirmed if there is any correlation between the baby's name and the song.

Additionally, the name of their first child also begins with the letter R. Little RZA Athelston Mayers’ moniker was given as a tribute to the founding member of the Wu-Tang Clan.

We became aware of the singer's second pregnancy during her February performance at the Super Bowl when she introduced the world to her growing baby bump. After her history-making set, a source opened up to PEOPLE on her motherhood journey and the joy she is experiencing while being pregnant again.

"Rihanna has so many things she is grateful for. She is ecstatic about how her show went. She felt great about performing again. She was also super excited to confirm her pregnancy.”

Rihanna went on to tell British Vogue, "We're best friends with a baby," she said. "We have to be on the same page, but we've always kind of had that in our relationship. Everything changes when you have a baby, but I wouldn't say it's done anything but made us closer."
