Gigi Hadid has finally unveiled the name of her daughter, four months after welcoming her into the world with boyfriend Zayn Malik.
The model, 25, revealed she had named her four-month-old girl ‘Khai’ after quietly changing her Instagram bio on Thursday.
‘Khai’s mom,’ the top of her bio now reads.
Khai’s name had been shrouded in secrecy ever since Gigi gave birth back in September, and at one point fans speculated the moniker had been revealed in a new Taylor Swift song.

The internet was lit up with speculation the newborn had been named Dorothea, after Taylor released a song of the same name back in December.
However, sources later told TMZ that was untrue.
The name does, however, bear a resemblance to Gigi’s sister Bella Hadid’s middle name, Khair.
Gigi chose to reveal her daughter’s name on the same day the youngster turned four months old.
