Nara Smith considered names including Tink, Lemon, Plum and Pippin for her third child, but she and husband Lucky Blue Smith chose Whimsy Lou. The alternatives were names she liked but did not use—not the newborn’s name.
What names did Nara Smith consider?
In a TikTok posted April 17, 2024, Smith shared names she had liked but did not choose for her third child. A contemporaneous PerthNow report listed:
- Tink, with Bow floated as a possible middle name
- Lemon
- Plum
- Clementine
- Pippin, with Pip as a short form; Dottie and Dot were also mentioned
- Ivy
- Halo
- Dusk
- Dew
- Mercer
- Flick
Smith introduced the ideas as “a little out there” and “a little bit more controversial,” according to PerthNow. Those are her playful descriptions, not objective categories: the list ranges from food-associated names such as Lemon and Plum to nature- or word-inspired choices such as Ivy, Dusk and Dew.
What was the baby’s name?
Smith and Lucky Blue Smith named their third child Whimsy Lou. The baby was born April 11, 2024, according to PerthNow’s report. The People report syndicated by Yahoo Entertainment identifies the naming video as posted April 17 and notes the couple’s older children, Rumble Honey and Slim Easy.
#1 Best Overall
In that report, Smith described the names she shared as ones she “loved, but I didn’t use this time around.” So Tink, Bow, Lemon and the other listed ideas were backups she discussed, not names given to the newborn.

In 2025, while expecting the couple’s fourth child, Smith shared a separate set of names she had considered. The later baby was named Fawnie Golden, as reported by E! News and The Bump. Fawnie Golden belongs to that later story; it was not an alternative for Whimsy Lou in 2024.
