Ireland Baldwin reveals the ‘posh’ name she chose for her daughter … and which actress inspired the nickname
Ireland Baldwin has revealed the name she plans to give her daughter and the actress who inspired the nickname.
Baldwin, who is expecting her first child with boyfriend RAC, revealed during an interview on GirlBoss Radio’s podcast that she plans to name her daughter Holland.
The 27-year-old model explained how her longtime crush on actress Holland Taylor, coupled with her desire to name her daughter after a country, led her to the selection.

“We call them Holland. I’m Ireland, so it’s a different country because we wanted to keep that consistent,” she explained.
“And then I love actress Holland Taylor. I’ve always loved this name since I was young, I just thought it was such a classic, beautiful name, so let’s go with Holland.”
Ireland announced her pregnancy on New Year’s Eve, releasing a photo of her sonogram and tagging her partner RAC née Andre Allen Anjos in the picture.
“Happy New Year,” she captioned the picture.

Baldwin and Anjos began seeing each other in 2021, and he first appeared on her Instagram in June.
Last year, RAC announced that he and Baldwin were opening a store called Good Times on the Oregon Coast. The two also have plans to open a coffee shop together.
Ireland slipped that she is expecting a daughter on Instagram before her mother Kim Basinger confirmed the news on her own account.

The model referred to her child as “she” as she began a virtual vent session about her pregnancy earlier this month.
“If another person asks me to send them a picture of my stomach, I’ll lose my mind. Because I do not have any. My kid is so embedded in it, and I’m tall, and there’s just a lot of room in there for them,” Ireland said in her videos.
It’s been a tumultuous few weeks for the Baldwin family after it was announced that Ireland’s superstar father Alec Baldwin has been officially charged with manslaughter for his role in the tragic Rust shooting of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins.
Prosecutors in Santa Fe, New Mexico, today officially filed charges against Baldwin.
Baldwin has vowed to fight the allegations. He says he never pulled the trigger and that it was a tragic accident.
If convicted, he faces up to five years in prison.
Armorer Hannah Gutierrez-Reed was also charged.
