Jamie and Jools Oliver Reveal Their Baby Boy’s Name

Jools Oliver has kept the name of her fifth child with husband Jamie Oliver tightly under wraps, but on Monday (Aug. 22) the proud mom couldn’t contain her excitement anymore – and the moniker is one that Hello! predicted just hours earlier.

“Such a gorgeous name, and big congrats!” “So original and attractive”, wrote one, with another adding: “Beautiful and unique!”

Jools Oliver revealed the baby’s hippie-sounding name on Instagram in a post featuring a piece of nursery wall art with the text “Dream Big River”. Over the weekend, Jamie had posted an adorable image of mother and baby taking a nap peacefully.

The pair have named their fifth child River Rocket Oliver.

It’s not the first unusual name for the Oliver clan.

The little boy joins siblings Poppy Honey Rosie, 14, Daisy Boo Pamela, 12, Petal Blossom Rainbow, six, and five-year-old son Buddy Bear Maurice. I’m not sure where Petal Rainbow came from – apparently it’s a My Little Pony!

At the time of the new arrival’s birth both Jamie and Jools, 41, said that they didn’t yet have a name for the tot but Jamie had previously hinted in an interview in July that they’d continue with the natural theme. “I wanted to call her Rainbow but Jamie told me to calm down!” “There for every nappy change!”

‘I’ll pretend to have a say in the name, but I really have no say’.

Many commented on the snap asking ‘is this the name of the little one?’ With others congratulating the couple on their name choice. “Whatever you call your baby is your decision”, said Jools.
