Internet personality Trisha Paytas reveals superhero-inspired name for newborn son

Internet personality Trisha Paytas has revealed that she and husband Moses Hacmon have named their newborn son Aquaman.

The couple’s third child— whose full name is Aquaman Moses Paytas-Hacmon — follows the arrivals of girls Malibu Barbie, 2, and Elvis, 14 months.

Sharing images from her son’s birth to Instagram, which took place on July 12, the YouTube star beamed as she and Moses cradled the newborn who matched in aqua-themed garb.

Other photos depicted the couple’s older children becoming familiar with their newest sibling.

“💙AQUAMAN MOSES PAYTAS-HACMON💙 Born 07.12.25 @ 12:40 am 🙏,” Paytas captioned the post.

The YouTube star had previously explained on her Just Trish podcast the inspiration behind Aquaman, suggesting they needed a “movie poster” name to match those of Elvis and Barbie.

Paytas also noted the baby’s star sign of Cancer is a water sign, and that she’s had an affection for Aquaman, played in film by Jason Momoa, for several years.

The internet star has been flooded with well-wishes as fans revelled in the superhero connection.

“Yayayyyyy welcome to the world baby Aquaman!!!” one person commented.

“The Birthday parties are about to be off the unCHARTed waters 💦😍,” another said.

Corners of the internet have noted the bizarre trend of Paytas’ newborns being oddly timed with celebrity deaths, with some conspiracists believing her kids are the reincarnations of fallen stars.

“Ozzy, that you?” one fan posited, in reference to the Tuesday death of iconic Black Sabbath frontman Ozzy Osborne.

In 2022, Paytas had advised followers she’d gone into labour with Malibu shortly before the Royal Palace had announced the death of Queen Elizabeth II.

While the timing didn’t quite align with her second child’s birth, some sleuths drew a long bow when connecting the April 2025 death of Pope Francis with Paytas’ May 2024 birth of Elvis.

“Is it just like any influential person that dies gets to come reincarnate as my baby?” she said on her Just Trish podcast at the time.

“I don’t understand why my womb is carrying all these souls.”

Despite sharing her baby photos ostensibly in coordination with the death of Osborne, the 37-year-old confirmed Aquaman’s birth took place weeks earlier.

“He came early,” Trisha told fans on her recent podcast.

“The original due date was July 29. Our scheduled c-section was July 18.”

She continued to reveal the chaos of the “traumatising” premature birth, saying she was forced to wait for three other c-sections to be completed at the hospital before she could be seen.

“I actually thought I was going to die—I was like, ‘I don’t know if I can handle this,” Paytas recalled.

However, once delivery began, the YouTuber said she was introduced to her son in just 10 minutes.
