Serena Williams and her husband Alexis Ohanian are set to welcome their second child into the family soon. At the glitzy Met Gala, the couple recently revealed that they are expecting their second-born this year. Following the happy announcement, the 41-year-old tennis player, recently, listed a few names she’s been considering for her second child.
Being a Jehovah’s Witness herself, the 23-time Grand Slam champion chose the name Olympia for her first child as a nod to Greek mythology. However, this time, the former tennis player wants to delve into the magical universe of make-believe to fish out an appropriate name for her second child.

Just like a lot of people in the US, the American tennis legend also believes in conservative Christian values. However, recently, the former tennis player took to her TikTok account to share a video in which she was talking about different names for her second-born. But instead of going for any mythological or religious name, the 41-year-old tennis player decided that this time she would like to name her baby after her favorite Disney characters.
In the video, she said, “I was thinking about… I don’t know the gender, I don’t know if we’re having a girl or a boy. So, I’m thinking about some names and I was like maybe I should do something with my favorite Disney characters because I love Disney, and as you know, I’m like their biggest fan. So, if it’s a girl, it could be like Maleficent, that’s how you say it?”
She also listed some Disney characters’ names like Scar, Gaston, Ursula, and Lady Gothel.
Moreover, being a proud Jehovah’s Witness, did you know that the tennis player has never celebrated her daughter’s birthday?
