As we reported, Isabel and Jacob quietly welcomed their baby to the world in early December. When he was a week old, they shared their exciting news on social media and announced his name. They did not, however, share a full photo of the baby. They have been very vocal about keeping their son’s life private.

Prior to his birth, fans thought that Isabel and Jacob might choose a name that is connected to her late brother. Others speculated that the couple would use a nature-themed name. In their social media posts, they revealed that they had named him Mateo Tomás. So, some fans were correct when they mentioned Isabel’s brother’s name, Tomás.

Isabel Roloff receives a special gift.

On social media, Isabel shared a snap of a personalized ornament hanging on their family’s tree. It is a sparkly green ornament with Mateo’s full name written on it in gold script. His name is surrounded by an illustrated wreath. In the caption of her post, Isabel reveals that a friend made and brought over the special ornament recently.

What is the meaning behind Mateo’s name?

Also in the post about the special ornament gifted to them, Isabel explains why they chose to name their son Mateo Tomás.

She began, “Truthfully, I just fell in love with the name Mateo many years ago. I always liked how it flows no matter who is pronouncing it. One day, I told Jacob I loved the name for a future son, and he said he loved it, too.
It also happens to honor Jacob’s dad, since it is the Spanish version of the name Matthew.”

She also explained that the baby’s name means “God’s gift,” which she says is “incredibly fitting.”

Then, Isabel talks about her baby’s middle name. She writes, “His middle name, Tomás, is a Chilean family name. It is my cousin, my dad’s and my late brother’s name. We thought it would be a beautiful way of honoring my brother and also my Chilean roots. We can’t wait to tell him all about his tio and the glorious life he lived. ❤️”
