  • Ashley Olsen is a new mother.

  • TMZ reports that Olsen and her husband Louis Eisner welcomed their first child, a baby boy they named Otto, in New York “a few months ago."

  • Eisner and Olsen got married in December 2022.


TMZ reports that Olsen and her husband Louis Eisner welcomed their first child, a baby boy they named Otto, in New York “a few months ago,” per sources close to the couple. The sources did not specify exact birth date but did tell TMZ that the couple is “ecstatic” about their baby boy.

Eisner and Olsen got married in December 2022, months after first sparking marriage rumors. There’s no official statement from the couple though, as Olsen’s rep has not yet commented, and Olsen does not have social media.

Both Olsen and her twin sister Mary-Kate live very private lives despite their child star fame.

In the case of Olsen and her husband Eisner, the two never announced their marriage themselves either. While they have been photographed together from time to time, they also choose not to discuss their relationship in interviews.

Kate Winslet's two older kids, Mia and Joe, inspired her third child's fierce name, the actress revealed on The Ellen Degeneres Show. "The whole pregnancy is about 'What are we going to call the baby?' So it was really lovely, actually; they were very much included, and we settled on Bear quite early on. A friend of mine when I was younger was nicknamed Bear, and I just had always really loved it," she said.

Blaze is a nod to how Winslet and husband Edward Abel Smith met—in a house fire.

A lifelong fan of comic books and superheroes, Nicolas Cage named his son with then-wife Alice Kim after Superman. "Kal-El was [Superman]'s original name on Krypton," Nicolas explained after his son's birth in 2005. "So I wanted a name that stood for something good, was unique and American and that’s all three. I just thought it was a beautiful name and it had kind of a magical ring to it."

Fun fact: The Oscar-winning actor (born Nicolas Coppola) got his stage name from a comic book hero, too—Marvel's Luke Cage.

Four months after giving birth, Gigi Hadid let the world know her daughter's name by updating her Instagram bio to "khai's mom." Khai translates to "crowned" in Arabic, which goes perfectly with her last name, Malik, which translates to "king." A name fit for Hollywood royalty!

Forest Whitaker and Keisha Nash Whitaker welcomed Sonnet in 1996, adding to their already-interesting list of kids names: The couple also has a second daughter named True, and two children from previous relationships, Ocean and Autumn.

Fall Out Boy's Pete Wentz chose not to explain the name he and then-wife Ashlee Simpson gave their son when he was born in 2008. "We'd been throwing ['Bronx'] back and forth a while ago," Pete said. "I feel weird because all these people have all these ideas on what it means... It's kind of cool to leave the narrative what it is." Mowgli, on the other hand, is a direct reference to The Jungle Book.

Ashlee and Pete split in 2011, but both kept up with the unique names: Ashlee went on to welcome daughter Jagger Snow with husband Evan Ross, while Pete and girlfriend Meagan Camper are also parents to son Saint Lazslo and daughter Marvel Jane.

In 2005, the My Name Is Earl star told Entertainment Weekly: "The opening track, 'He's Simple, He's Dumb, He's the Pilot,' absolutely blew my mind when I first heard it."

The Good Wife actress Jess Weixler and husband Hamish Brocklebank welcomed daughter Beatrice Danger in 2019. That's a name that screams "future superhero."

But they have been together for a while: They were reported to have started dating after being friends for years in 2017. News of their relationship didn’t surface publicly until 2019, two years after they began seeing each other.

In July 2021, Olsen made a very rare appearance on Eisner’s Instagram Story, and the couple posed together at a September 2021 event.

In June 2021, the Olsen twins gave a rare interview where they addressed their preference to be more low-key (“We were raised to be discreet people,” Mary-Kate said), and why they decided not to be public faces for their line, The Row.

“We really didn’t want to be in front of it,” Ashley Olsen said. “We didn’t necessarily even want to let people know it was us, in a way. I mean, it was one of those things where it was really about the product, to the point where we’re like, ‘Who could we get to kind of front this so we don’t have to?’ I think, to this day, you’ll see we really put the product first.”
