The couple shared an adorable photo of her little feet and revealed her name as well: Dua Padukone Singh. In their heartfelt Instagram post, they explained the significance of her name: “‘Dua’: meaning a Prayer. Because she is the Answer to our Prayers. Our hearts are filled with Love & Gratitude.”
Take a look:
Here’s how the internet reacted to this awe-so-adorable revelation.
While Deepika and Ranveer shared the meaning behind their daughter’s name, fans quickly noted how it honours her mother’s legacy. Some suggested that “Dua” is an amalgamation of the initials from Deepika, her mother-in-law Anju Bhavnani, and her mother Ujjwala. Additionally, one fan pointed out that the “A” could also represent her sister, Anisha.
Ranveer and Deepika tied the knot on November 14, 2018, in the picturesque setting of Lake Como, Italy. They welcomed their daughter, Dua, on September 8, 2024.
While fans have made some wild guesses about the name, its beauty and significance, as revealed by the new parents, stand out. Now can’t wait to see more cutesy pictures of Dua and the happy fam.
