πΆ Trisha Paytas New Baby Name
π The name Aquaman Moses Paytas-Hacmon is a perfect reflection of Trisha’s unique approach to life and motherhood.
π¦ΈββοΈ Aquaman is a superhero name, a movie title, and a water-themed character. Moses is a traditional name honoring Trisha’s husband, Moses Hacmon, and it means “delivered from water” in Egyptian .
π Together, the name tells a story of pop culture, family, and waterβthree things that matter most to Trisha and Moses.
π¬ Why Did Trisha Paytas Name Her Baby?

π¦ΈββοΈ The name Aquaman wasn’t random. In fact, it was the result of two specific themes Trisha and Moses had been building for years: movie posters and water.
ποΈ The Movie Poster Theme
π Trisha and Moses named their first daughter Malibu Barbie, a direct nod to the Barbie movie. Their second daughter, Elvis, shared her name with the Elvis film .
π¬ On her Just Trish podcast, Trisha explained: “We have to have a movie poster because we had the Barbie poster and the Elvis poster. We have to have another iconic name poster up in our house!” .
π Aquaman completed the trilogy. It was a superhero movie, a recognizable title, and a name that could stand alongside Barbie and Elvis.
π Trisha also noted that Aquaman was a character she had dressed as at Comic Cons in the past. “I had a little Aquaman phase back in 2017, 2018,” she said .
π§ The Water Theme
π Water has always been central to Trisha’s husband, Moses. His “whole philosophy,” Trisha said, was “We’re just water” .
π Their son was also born a Cancer, which is a water zodiac sign. Trisha explained: “Cancer is a water sign. Moses loves water. So then we’re like, okay, we need to think of water themed” .
π¦ΈββοΈ Aquaman tied everything together: a water-themed superhero, a movie poster name, and a character Moses already had memorabilia for in his water museum .
π Trisha also revealed that when she first met Moses, she saw an Aquaman reference in his water museum. “It just made so much sense,” she said .
π¨ The Middle Name: Moses
π¨βπ¦ The middle name Moses honors Trisha’s husband, Moses Hacmon. It’s a traditional name with deep biblical roots, meaning “delivered from water” in Egyptian .
π Fittingly, the name Moses also connects to the water theme. In the Bible, Moses was rescued from the Nile River as a baby.
π By giving her son the middle name Moses, Trisha honored her husband while tying into the water symbolism that runs through the family.
π The Name That Almost Was: Water Snake
π Before settling on Aquaman, Trisha had a very different name in mind: Water Snake.
π On the July 22, 2025 episode of Just Trish, she revealed: “My number one that we were so close to naming the baby is not a movie poster, but I loved it so much. It’s Moses’ poem ‘Water Snake'” .
π₯ Moses had written the poem and shared it on YouTube back in 2017. Trisha explained why it meant so much: “I love ‘Water Snake,’ It’s the Year of the Snake, Moses is a snake. We love water. I loved (the movie) Water World. I loved the name Water” .
π However, Water Snake didn’t fit the “movie poster” theme. Therefore, they pivoted to Aquaman.
π Trisha admitted that Water Snake was “so close” to being the name. But ultimately, the movie poster theme won out .
π Other Names Trisha Paytas Considered
π Trisha has always been open about her naming process. Before Aquaman, she floated several other options:
- π§ Aladdin β A perfect movie poster fit, but Moses “vetoed” it quickly .
- π¨ Moses Jr. β A traditional option honoring her husband .
- π Waterworld β Inspired by the 1995 Kevin Costner film .
- π’ Titanic β Another water-themed movie they briefly considered .
π¬ Trisha explained that Aladdin was a strong contender because it fit the movie poster theme perfectly. But Moses wasn’t on board. “He vetoed Paper Man and Aladdin pretty quick,” she said .
