Devin Dawson And Wife Leah Expecting First Baby

Devin Dawson and his wife Leah had a big snow day announcement on Monday (1/15). The couple shared the news via Instagram that they are expecting their first child together, a baby girl, due in July of 2024.

Dawson and Leah's post flooded with comments from friends and fellow country stars, including Shay Mooney saying, "BRO!!!!!! Congrats man." Craig Campbell wrote "Come on #FamilyMan." Adam Doleac said "Daddyyyyy Devvvvvv!" Brandon Ratcliff responded, "Coupla girl dads! Congratulations y'all So happy for you!"

Now that the couple's big secret is finally out, we have to say, their relationship has been special from the very start. According to People, the Dawsons tied the knot in October of 2019 in Franklin, Tennessee after two and a half years of dating and while both attending Belmont University.

When Dawson proposed to Sykes in March 2019, she revealed to her followers with a post that she had called her dad about him after nine days of knowing him and that "there has never been a doubt in my mind."

The Nashville songwriter's most recent credits include Cody Johnson's "People In The Back," Restless Road's "10 Things" and "That Town and You," and three songs on Dustin Lynch's latest album Killed The Cowboy, the title track, "Lone Star," and "Only Girl In Town."

In 2022, Dawson revealed to his fans that he was in the process of "dealing with Dysphonia and learning how to sing again." Dysphonia is a muscle condition that affects how people talk and sing and it was "severely affecting Dawson's speaking voice and singing voice and the time he released the statement.

Dawson released his debut studio album titled Dark Horse in 2018, featuring the lead singles "All On Me" and "Asking For A Friend." He released a follow-up EP in 2021 called The Pink Slip, which you can check out here.

Selecting a baby name can be tough, especially with thousands of options available. Some parents stress over the lasting influence of their child's name, wanting to ensure a prosperous future. Trends in naming kids mirror shifting cultural norms and evolving ambitions for children.

Getting baby names right has taken on a new level of importance for expecting parents. In fact, TikTok has become a platform where creators gather substantial followings by discussing baby name trends and highlighting names to avoid due to their trendiness. They openly share names they considered but didn't use, along with names they'd rather not encounter again. TikTok's baby name inspiration videos now focus on various themes, including "old money" names such as Caroline, Elizabeth, and Charlotte, "main character" names like Blaze, Arrow, and Falcon, and "aesthetic" names like Rowan, Wren, and Atlas.

Celebrities are accustomed to unconventional names. Elon Musk, Tesla's CEO, and musician Grimes named their first child X Æ A-12, often called "X." Their second child is Exa Dark Sideræl. They also affectionately refer to their daughter as Sailor Mars, inspired by the "Sailor Moon" manga series.

Occasionally, parents opt to invent a name, a decision that carries some level of uncertainty. While they might create something distinctive and appealing, there's also a chance of the child being given a name perceived as peculiar by others. This situation arose for a baby, drawing significant attention on Reddit. The name of the child came to light through a thread titled, "The Most Unusual Name I've Encountered in Real Life."

It reads, "So my mother just told me the name of her ex’s child and my GOD is it a doozy. He and his wife named their daughter: Audtom. Because his name is Tom and her name is Audrey. I could not f---ing believe my ears."

Commenters had strong opinions, with many criticizing the name choice. Others suggested more seamless ways to combine the parents' names, including one person who wrote, "Assuming this is pronounced 'Autumn' and not 'Odd-Tom,' would it have killed them to just spell it Autom?"

Another person suggested, "Not me thinking 'Tomrey' would be better," and another joked, "They missed an opportunity: 'Tawdry.'”

Redditors even came up with baby names that they considered to be the worst. Take a look at some of these names below.

"When I was a kid I stayed at a bed & breakfast with family photos on the walls," one user wrote. "There was a sister named Gridget. I actually think about this a lot." It's kind of like a spin on the name Bridget. This Redditor seems really stuck on the name they found.

This unique name caught this person off guard. They even tried to figure it out by mixing it with other names. "I once saw a baby announcement where the mom was named Shannon, the dad was Daniel, and they named the baby Shanniel," they wrote.

Sometimes people just go with the flow when picking a name for their kid. Maybe it felt right at the time, and they didn't even realize it's also the name of a condition. While working at a gas station, this Reddit user observed a mother who let her child run around wild. They wrote "One small girl was pushing on a display stand and the mother screamed: ‘DYSLEXIA GET YO A-- OVER HERE!"

Back in school on the playground, this person probably had a rough time. This is particularly true because their name coincidentally rhymes with a sexually transmitted disease. Nevertheless, a user pointed out that it's a clever fusion of two names. "Donnaria. A combination of her Mom's name (Donna) and Grandma's name (Gloria)," they wrote.

Bacardi, Hennessy, Tanqueray, Alizé – the names keep coming. It turns out a Redditor, who happened to work in children and family services, encountered kids with names inspired by alcoholic beverages almost every day. "You don't know how bad it really gets. Lots of kids named after alcoholic beverages."
