Nearly two months after Kailyn Lowry finally picked a name for her third son, Lux Russell, the Teen Mom 2 star, 25, is explaining why she took so long to name her baby boy! She’s also revealing the inspiration behind her son’s unique name. Click through for all the details on how Kail came up with Lux’s name!
“It took me so long to name the baby because I was trying to work with baby daddy Chris Lopez to agree on the name,” Kail told TheAshleysRealityRoundUp.com. “But we just couldn’t agree.”
“Until we ended things between us for good and I decided I would just pick something I loved, and he agreed to the first name we picked prior to me deciding it would be the name for sure,” Kail explained.
“I finally decided on a name because it felt like I was going nowhere with Chris trying to decide,” she continued. Kail was also nearing Delaware’s deadline to give a child a name — she only had 30 of the 90 allotted days left!
