On an episode of her podcast, This Is Paris, that was released this Wednesday, Hilton also shared their son’s unusual name: Phoenix Barron Hilton Reum. She noted that the name was partly inspired by the Arizona city, and that she planned to keep the theme going with any future children, having already earmarked the name London for a future daughter. “I’ve been planning my children’s names for years and years,” she added, also explaining that she was compelled to choose the name Phoenix for its meaning of “hope, rebirth, and transformation.”

Barron, on the other hand, was intended to serve as a tribute to Hilton’s late grandfather of the same name. “He was always my mentor, and I looked up to my grandfather so much, and we were so close, and I miss him every day, so I really wanted to honor him by having his name in my first son’s name,” she said on the podcast.
