Paris Hilton has finally thrown us all a bone and revealed the name of her baby son.
The former reality TV star turned international DJ and businesswoman welcomed a newborn with her partner Carter Reum via surrogate last month.
Paris uploaded the most precious photo to Instagram, which announced she was now a mother.
It took many of her fans by complete surprise because she had been seen at multiple events prior to the post and she had no form of baby bump.

She posted a blue heart emoji alongside a caption that read: "You are already loved beyond words."
Hilton eventually explained in an interview with People magazine that she and Carter decided to have a baby through a surrogate.
The couple initially went through IVF when the coronavirus pandemic kicked off.
"We started going and doing it like a few months in because the world was shut down," she said to the entertainment outlet.
"We knew we wanted to start a family, and I was like, 'This is perfect timing. Usually, I'm on a plane 250 days out of the year, and let's just get all of the eggs stocked and ready,' and we have tons of them just waiting."
However, they opted for surrogacy.
"It's always been my dream to be a mother and I'm so happy that Carter and I found each other," she said.
"We are so excited to start our family together and our hearts are exploding with love for our baby boy."
Everyone has been waiting since that day to know what name Paris and Carter decided to bestow this lucky baby boy.
Finally, we've been given that information.
*drum roll please*
The couple has named the boy Phoenix Barron Hilton Reum.
In a video on Instagram, Paris explained the meaning behind the name in an excerpt from her upcoming memoir.
"We plan to name him Phoenix, a name that I decided years ago," she said.
"When I was searching cities, countries and states on a map, looking for something to go with Paris and London.
"Phoenix has a few good pop culture reference points, but more importantly it’s a bird that flames out and then rises from the ashes to fly again.
"I want my son to grow up knowing that triumph and disaster go around and come around throughout our lives, and that this should give us great hope for the future.
"Carter and I are so proud to welcome him into the world."
Fans were very excited about the update and congratulated the happy couple.
