Rihanna and A$AP Rocky did not come up with their youngest son’s name all on their own.
Pharrell Williams had suggested they name their second child Riot Rose Mayers, now 18 months, the “Diamonds” singer has revealed. Pharrell and Rocky had collaborated on the 2023 track “RIOT (Rowdy Pipe’n).”
“He gave us this name thinking it was going to be a girl,” Rihanna told Harper’s Bazaar in an interview published Feb. 22, “because he had seen something online.”
The “Work” singer said Pharrell “is very deep,” adding, “He’s not surface. He will never say anything and just leave it there with a full stop. He will have the entire history: the energy, the time, the month that it is.”
Rihanna—who famously revealed her pregnancy with Riot while performing in the 2023 Super Bowl Halftime Show—also shared insight into the personality of her and Rocky’s second son.
“Riot, he’s just hilarious,” she said. “When he wakes up, he starts to squeal, scream. Not in a crying way. He just wants to sing. And I’m like, ‘Okay, here we go!’ He’s my alarm in the morning! He’s not taking no for an answer from anyone.”
