Ileana D'Cruz reveals why she named her son Koa

During a recent interview with The Times of India, the Pagalpanti star shared insights about her son, Koa Phoenix Dolan. Initially, the actress had been convinced she would have a daughter, focusing solely on baby girl names. The idea of preparing boy names didn't even occur to her. However, she eventually realized she needed to consider alternatives as well, but her conviction remained strong that it would be a girl.

Explaining the origin of her son's unique name, D'Cruz expressed her desire for something distinctive, inspired by her own uncommon name. Koa caught her attention, and discussing it with Mike (Michael), they both found it endearing. As for Phoenix, it had been lingering in her mind for some time, resonating with the powerful symbolism of rising from adversity. Notably, she had a personal connection with the concept, having a phoenix tattoo since 2018, symbolizing profound personal significance.

Ultimately, Mike embraced the name, and D'Cruz hopes that Koa will appreciate its uniqueness as he grows older.
