Travis Kelce Casually Drops Potential Future Baby Name Amid Taylor Swift Relationship

Entertainment gossip and news from Newsweek's network of contributors

Once again, Travis Kelce is sending Swifties into a tailspin by subtly hinting at the future direction of his relationship with Taylor Swift by dropping a potential baby name during the Wednesday, April 3, episode of New Heights with Jason and Travis Kelce.

During the most recent podcast episode, Travis and Jason had the privilege of interviewing Arnold Schwarzenegger. While delving into his favorite movies, Travis casually mentioned, "I might name my first kid Conan. I might." This remark is referencing the iconic 1982 film, Conan the Barbarian, in which Schwarzenegger portrays the titular character embarking on a quest for vengeance after his parents' tragic death.

Kelce's mention of future children isn't a one-off occurrence, particularly since his relationship with Swift began. During the March 20 episode of New Heights, he subtly expressed his anticipation for parenthood with a sly remark.

When the two NFL stars were talking about Victor Wembanyama's incredible build, Travis jokingly said the NBA player was "made in a lab." Following this conversation, he said under his breath, "Can't wait til I f****** make one," referring to his excitement to have his own kid.

Following that remark, the elder of the pair cautioned Travis about the potential consequences of such comments. "Don't do this," he teased. "Do not give any of these other conspiracy theorists anything else to latch onto, please."

Swift and Kelce are most certainly making strides in their relationship, as shown through his numerous comments about the future on his podcast. Additionally, the happy couple have recently been spotted vacationing in the Bahamas and enjoying lunch outings together.
