What’s New
Tiffany Trump will probably stick to a “fancy, lavish and ornate” theme when naming her baby, according to Emily Kim, an influencer who goes by emdoodlesandstuff on TikTok and specializes in baby name predictions.
Why It Matters
President-elect Donald Trump announced along the campaign trail that Tiffany, 31, his youngest daughter, is pregnant. Last week, she posted photos to her Instagram with the caption “before the baby bump.” Kim looked at Tiffany’s Instagram account for inspiration when predicting the baby’s name.
“Even though they’ve been married since 2022, Tiffany is still showcasing images from their wedding,” Kim said. “It’s eye-catching and a great indicator of Tiffany’s style: fancy, lavish, and ornate. I expect that her baby name will be something that can be described in similar terms.”
Multiple outlets have reported that Tiffany was named after Tiffany & Company, which has its flagship store down the road from Trump Tower on Fifth Avenue in New York City.
For a girl, Kim is predicting names like Coco, Farrah, Francesca, Isabella and Alexandria.
For a boy, Tiffany may go more toward Alexander, Sebastian, Locke and Malcolm, according to Kim.
“The baby’s name may be fusion of American and Lebanese, in the same way Tiffany’s ornate wedding dress fit her lavish American lifestyle, yet it was created by a Lebanese designer,” Kim said. “I could see a traditional Lebanese name for the middle name.”
Coming from a large, blended family, Kim says, could add more “complex dynamics” when choosing a name for a baby, “especially if there’s a desire to use an honorific name of a relative.”
“I think it’s possible Tiffany’s strong public support of her father’s politics could lead to “Trump” being a secondary middle name for Baby Buolos [sic],” Kim said.
Kim more often predicts baby names for internet influencers than for celebrities, but she did correctly predict the third baby of former Philadelphia Eagles star Jason Kelce and his wife Kylie.
What To Know
Tiffany is Donald Trump’s second-born daughter and fourth child, the only one he shares with ex-wife Marla Maples. They divorced in 1999. Maples, a model, was the president-elect’s second wife, following Ivana Trump, and preceding his current wife, incoming first lady Melania Trump.
Tiffany had a relatively private childhood being raised by Maples in California, according to People magazine. Tiffany told People in 2016 that she would visit her father during school breaks. There have been rumors that Tiffany and her father have had a strained relationship, but she told People in 2017, “I really have an emotional bond with [Donald Trump], and he was always just the funniest, most loving father.”
She has mostly stayed out of the spotlight during her father’s political career since he first ran for president in 2016. During the ’16 cycle, she appeared at events and delivered speeches.
Tiffany did give a speech at the Republican National Convention in 2020.
Her husband, Michael Boulos, from Nigeria, was named associate director of SOCA Nigeria, according to BBC News, and he is also the billionaire scion of the family’s business. The two reportedly met in Mykonos, Greece, where they were partying at Lindsay Lohan’s club in summer 2018. Later that year, Tiffany made the relationship public when she invited Boulos to her family’s Thanksgiving at Mar-a-Lago.
He was invited to the Trumps’ Christmas Eve at the White House in 2019 and to the State of the Union in 2020. Boulos proposed to Tiffany at the White House in 2021.
Boulos’ father, Massad Boulos, was leading efforts to help win over Arab American voters for the president-elect over the summer.
What People Are Saying
Donald Trump, in October at a rally: “She’s an exceptional young woman. And she’s going to have a baby. So that’s nice.”
People on Tiffany’s most recent Instagram post were wishing her a “healthy pregnancy and Merry Christmas on the slopes,” as well as calling her “mama.”
What Happens Next
It’s not fully clear when Tiffany is due, but her father made the announcement in October, suggesting she could have the baby in late winter or early spring.
