Patrick Mahomes, the superstar quarterback of the Kansas City Chiefs, has once again captured the attention of fans, but this time it’s not about his on-field performance. After leading the Chiefs to clinch the AFC’s No. 1 seed with a Christmas Day victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers, Mahomes ignited speculation about the name of his soon-to-arrive third child.
During a heartfelt postgame interview, Mahomes shared his joy with his wife, Brittany, saying, “I told my wife I was gonna get her the No. 1 seed so we can go have that baby.” With their third child, a girl, expected any day now, fans are buzzing with guesses about what name the couple might choose.
The Mahomes family has established a distinct metallic theme in their names. Their daughter, Sterling Skye Mahomes, and son, Patrick “Bronze” Lavon Mahomes, both embrace this shimmering trend. Even the family dogs, Silver and Steele, follow suit. Now, with the possibility of a “Platinum Mahomes” on the horizon, fans are eagerly speculating about whether the couple will continue their unique naming legacy.
NFL analysts Ian Eagle, J.J. Watt, and Nate Burleson added fuel to the fire during a live Netflix broadcast, playfully suggesting “Platinum Mahomes” as a potential name. Social media quickly erupted, with fans praising the creativity and cohesion of the Mahomes’ metallic theme. Some even joked that Mahomes might have started a new naming trend for sports royalty.
As the Chiefs prepare for the playoffs with the No. 1 seed secured, Mahomes may have some time during Week 18 to rest and focus on his growing family. Balancing the demands of a high-pressure career with personal life is no small task, but Mahomes continues to excel both on and off the field.
While the official name announcement is still under wraps, one thing is certain: the Mahomes family knows how to keep fans engaged and entertained. Whether it’s their football triumphs or their unique family traditions, the Mahomes continue to shine brightly in the public eye.
