For Brittany and Patrick Mahomes, their son ‘Bronze‘ is pure gold. As the acclaimed quarterback of the Kansas City Chiefs, Patrick Mahomes had already established himself as a formidable force in the football world. However, it was the unexpected influence of his younger brother, Jackson Mahomes, that would prove to be a catalyst, forever transforming the Mahomes family’s destiny. He did something unforgettable which changed the life of everyone.
Surprisingly, this transformation didn’t revolve around Patrick’s football career but was a deeply personal journey. It started during a time of joy and recognition, with Brittany Mahomes carrying their cherished daughter, Sterling, while Bronze had yet to be born. Little did they know that Jackson’s invaluable assistance in finding Bronze would become a pivotal moment in their lives, sparking a series of remarkable events that would shape their family’s story.

During an interview, QB Patrick Mahomes revealed the unique nickname given to his newborn son, Patrick Lavon Mahomes III, by his brother Jackson. He said, via Entertainment News, “My brother Jackson, whenever we were trying to find something that was a little unique and different, he said, ‘What about Bronze? It fits perfectly with Sterling…..So, we went with that.” Bronze was born on November 28th of the previous year, and Patrick expressed his delight in choosing the name, considering it a remarkable touchdown.
Not only does the moniker share a resemblance with his older sister Sterling, but it also provides his son with a distinct identity. Patrick enthusiastically added, “It works out well….He can have his own thing now where he’s not Patrick, he’s Bronze, even though he’s Patrick. And, Sterling and Bronze can have that connection moving forward.” Interestingly, Bronze wasn’t the only fortunate one when it came to name selection; their daughter Sterling’s name also emerged from a unique incident.
