Cande Molfese Changes Baby Name From Otto to Pier

She says the switch followed a period of deliberation after a friend chose Otto, with the name Pier giving the couple a ‘very magical’ feeling.

Overview

  • Molfese announced on Wednesday that her first child will be named Pier Laviaguerre Molfese after she and partner Joaquín Laviaguerre reconsidered their earlier choice of Otto.
  • She said the change was not sudden but the result of a process of discussion and reflection, and that Pier was not originally on their list of names.
  • Molfese credited learning that a close friend had also picked Otto as a factor that pushed them to choose a different name.
  • The actress, who previously said she did not want children, has described how her partner helped awaken her desire for motherhood and has been sharing pregnancy updates on Instagram.
  • Followers responded with supportive messages and stories of last‑minute name changes, and Molfese said she will share more details in an upcoming video.
