Paris read an excerpt from her forthcoming memoir as she revealed her son’s name and described the meaning behind it.
“If all goes well, by the time you read this, Carter and I are having a baby,” she began. “We planned to call it Phoenix, a name I decided on years ago when I was looking up cities, countries and states on a map, looking for something to go with Paris and London. Phoenix has some good pop culture reference points, but the most important thing is the birth of flames and then rising from the ashes to fly again.
“I want my son to grow up knowing that disaster and triumph come and go throughout our lives and that this should give us great hope for the future. Even when the past is painful and the present seems to have turned to shit, it’s strange how two ideas that are so different, so completely opposite, can coexist like this. But they do. Freedom and suffering, joy and sadness, love and loss. So his name is Phoenix Barron Hilton Reum.
“And his middle name is Barron after my grandfather Barron Hilton, he was always my mentor and I admired my grandfather so much and we were very close and I miss him every day so I really wanted to honor him by having his name in my first name. son. So there you have it, my beautiful baby’s name is Phoenix Barron Hilton Reum and Carter and I are very proud to welcome her into the world.’
The heiress announced her name on her self-titled podcast, This Is Paris, where she shared the meaning behind the name and discussed raising a child with her husband.
“So there you have it, my beautiful baby girl’s name is Phoenix Barron Hilton Reum and Carter and I are very proud to welcome her into the world,” she said.
