Taylor Lautner baby girl Lennon Taylor has arrived, with the Twilight actor and wife Tay celebrating their first child together.
LOS ANGELES: Taylor Lautner baby girl Lennon Taylor has arrived, making the Twilight actor and his wife Tay Lautner parents for the first time. The couple announced the happy news on September 23, 2026, revealing that their daughter was born a week earlier on September 16.
What did Taylor and Tay Lautner name their daughter?
The couple named their daughter Lennon Taylor Lautner and revealed that they are already calling her “Lenny”. The name has attracted attention because both parents are named Taylor Lautner, with Tay using a shortened version of her first name. Their daughter’s middle name continues the unusual family connection.
Taylor and Tay announced the birth through a joint Instagram post featuring their newborn in a pink outfit beside a personalised needlepoint displaying her name. They wrote that they had spent one week loving their “sweet little Lenny” before revealing her full name and birth date.
The Taylor Lautner baby girl announcement quickly attracted congratulatory messages, including from some of the actor’s former Twilight co-stars. Nikki Reed and Jackson Rathbone were among those celebrating the couple’s new arrival.
Couple previously joked about another Taylor
The Lautners had playfully teased the possibility of adding another Taylor to their family while Tay was pregnant.
When announcing the pregnancy in March 2026, the couple joked about what could be better than having two Taylor Lautners. Their choice of Lennon as their daughter’s first name ultimately avoided having three family members with exactly the same name, while Taylor as her middle name maintained the connection.
The couple later revealed in June that they were expecting a girl. Lautner, who became internationally known for playing Jacob Black in the Twilight film franchise, had also spoken publicly about his excitement at becoming a father to a daughter.
Taylor and Tay’s journey to parenthood
Lautner and Tay began dating in 2018 after being introduced through the actor’s younger sister, Makena Moore. They became engaged in 2021 and married in November 2022.
Tay, a registered nurse, has also spoken openly about her pregnancy experience through the couple’s podcast, The Squeeze.
With the arrival of Taylor Lautner baby girl Lennon, the couple now begins a new chapter as a family of three, while their daughter’s distinctive middle name keeps one of their best-known family jokes alive.
Impact to expect
The announcement is likely to generate continued interest among Twilight fans and celebrity audiences, particularly because Lennon’s name carries a personal connection to both parents.
