Vogue Williams has revealed that the name chosen for her fourth baby is, in her own words, “a bit mad”.
The presenter is expecting her fourth child with husband Spencer Matthews. The couple already share three children: Theodore, seven, Gigi, five, and Otto, three.
Speaking on her My Therapist Ghosted Me podcast recently, Vogue said she and Spencer have already settled on a name. But she admitted it is so bold that her friend and podcast co-host Joanne McNally visibly reacted when she heard it.
Vogue Williams teases fourth baby name
Vogue said: “The name we’ve chosen is [bleep], it’s mad. Joanne flinched at the name and it made me go, ‘Oh?'”
Joanne agreed that the choice was a big one and said she had been surprised by it, especially given Vogue’s history of picking standout names.
Well it’s such a big first name that we’re going to do a normal middle name.
Joanne said: “Yes, I did. I mean, it’s a big name. Like, at the time, Theodore was a heavy hitter, and I know you like a crazy name.”
She added that while she enjoys naming shows, Vogue clearly enjoys naming babies, and admitted she had been taken aback by the latest choice.

Vogue explained that because the first name is so strong, they plan to pair it with a more traditional middle name so their child has options later on.
She said: “Well it’s such a big first name that we’re going to do a normal middle name, just in case, so the baby can choose.”
Vogue Williams and Spencer Matthews are already parents to three children: Theodore, Gigi and Otto.
- Theodore is the couple’s eldest child.
- Gigi was born in 2020.
- Otto arrived in April 2022.

Joanne joked that the child would need to be at least “an eight out of ten” to carry off the name, while Vogue teased her friend for still acting surprised whenever she sees her baby bump.
Vogue said: “Well Joanne hardly knows I’m pregnant, every time she sees my bump she goes, ‘Oh?'”
Joanne replied that after hearing the name, she would not be forgetting the pregnancy any time soon.
