Willow and Jaden are named after their parents, but it seems many online users are just finding out about this, as fans keep commenting on their unique names and sharing their surprise after discovering the meaning behind them. “I thought this was common knowledge,” one person said on Twitter.

“They named their daughter after him and their son after her. I realised this shortly after Willow whipped her hair back and forth, but figured I was the last to the party. Guess not,” someone else added. “Sis, do not worry cause I [live] in the US, and you just helped me connect the dots,“ another online user responded.

But despite some online users already knowing the meaning of their names, several others continue to discover that the names are, in fact, variations of Will and Jada’s names.
