    What's In a Name?

    The latest Rahm family baby name reveal is here, and it's another unique gem

    October 01, 2024

    Last Tuesday, Jon Rahm and Kelley Cahill welcomed their third child into the world. Rahm whisked off to Madrid shortly after, where he had a whirlwind weekend in his return to the DP World Tour, falling short to Angel Hidalgo in a playoff.

    Rahm will tee it up at the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship later this week, but on Tuesday he found a rare quiet moment to share the news with the golf world, introducing us all to Alaia Cahill Rahm. Say hi, everyone.

    The photos are adorable and we’re glad Alaia arrived happy and healthy, but don’t let that distract you from the Cahill-Rahm’s ongoing mission to give their kids the most unique names on earth. After the addition of their first daughter last week, the Cahill-Rahm roll call is now Kepa, Eneko and Alaia, each of which pay tribute to Rahm's proud Basque heritage.

    OK, it’s an old meme, but you get the idea. Jon and Kelley have pretty average names, spelling eccentricities aside, but clearly they wanted something different for their kids. As someone with a unique name themself, I know it can make attendance, applications and emails an interesting adventure, but as long as Kepa, Eneko and Alaia's last names remain “Rahm,” something tells us they’ll be just fine.
