Rapper A$AP Rocky has teased the name of his and girlfriend Rihanna’s third baby — just days after the singer debuted her blossoming baby bump at the Met Gala.
During an appearance on the “Late Night With Seth Meyers” Wednesday, the “Sundress” hitmaker, 36, was quizzed on which moniker the couple — who have been dating since late 2019 — will land on for their third child.
“Your first two kids have ‘R’ names, obviously you and Rihanna have ‘R’ names,” host Seth Meyers told the rapper, whose real name is Rakim Mayers.
He asked, “Is this a lock that the third will have an ‘R’ name, do you think?”
“For sure” the “Kids Turned Out Fine” rapper said in response, confirming that the baby’s name will definitely begin with an “R.”
Rocky and Rihanna are already proud parents to sons RZA, who turns 3 on Tuesday, and Riot, 1.
The teaser may land the couple in hot water with Rocky’s lawyer Joe Tacopina, who led the rapper’s legal team toward triumph during the nearly four-week trial earlier this year.
The “Praise the Lord” rapper was found not guilty of two felony counts of assault with a semiautomatic firearm in a 2021 shooting incident.
Following the big legal victory, the lawyer revealed that the couple allegedly told him they would be naming their next baby after him.
“They grabbed me and they said, ‘Listen, our next baby A$AP Joe,’” Tacopina told “Extra” in February. “I said, ‘I’m gonna hold you to that!’”
Following the big baby reveal during fashion’s biggest night Monday, the rapper gushed over how “amazing” it was to share the exciting news with the world.
“We were tired of holding that, and it was time to show the people what we was cooking up,” he told reporters. “I’m glad everybody’s happy for us, because we’re definitely happy.”
Rihanna, for her part, opened up about how the third pregnancy has been treating her.
“I’m good, shockingly feeling OK, and not too overwhelmed at the moment. At first, I was kind of like — tired but I’m excited,” the 9-time Grammy winner, 37, told Entertainment Tonight.
When asked if the baby news will subsequently delay the much-awaited release of her ninth studio album, Rihanna had some comforting words for her fans.
“Maybe a couple videos,” she said, “but I can sing.”
