Overview
- The couple disclosed the name Mariah in an Instagram Story on Thursday when Neymar shared a handwritten family note signed by Bruna and the children.
- The note, decorated with hand- and footprints, read that the family loves Neymar and included the signature line naming Mariah alongside Mavie and Mel.
- The pregnancy was first announced in June on Bruna Biancardi's YouTube channel and outlets report the new baby is expected in December.
- The choice continues the couple's pattern of daughters' names beginning with the letter M and was published as a show of family support after Neymar's recent Copa do Brasil injury.
- Brazil's 2022 census records about 24,000 people named Mariah, and the coverage also reminded readers of Neymar's wider family, including his older children Davi Lucca and Helena.
