Ashley Iaconetti and Jared Haibon Reveal the Movie-Inspired Name of Their Baby Boy on the Way During an Amazon Live last month, the couple shared the sweet cinematic inspiration behind the name of their baby boy. The newborn's moniker is inspired by Leonard DiCaprio's Titanic character, Jack Dawson, "one of Ashley's loves," Haibon said, noting that Iaconetti even brought up the idea for the name when the couple was "just friends." "Naming a kid after a Leo character is very natural for us," Iaconetti added. As for their son's middle name, the couple said Demitri was simply a name they both liked. Iaconetti also opened up on Instagram earlier this month about her anxieties around giving birth, opening a business with Haibon and moving into a new home. "I haven't done a New Year's post until now because Jared and I were the crazy people who bought a house and opened a business the month I'm eight months pregnant," she began. "It's been an undertaking to say the least. I'm usually pretty nostalgic around New Year's, but this year I wasn't really. I think it's because I truly spent half of the year nauseous. 😂" Iaconetti also admitted she is "petrified of delivery" and has been "anxious to find out how I'll adjust to life as a parent." Iaconetti and Haibon first announced that were expecting their first baby together in July after previously sharing that they were actively trying to conceive earlier in the year.
