Nick Jonas and Priyanka Chopra *Finally* Confirmed Their Daughter’s Name

Ever since Nick Jonas and Priyanka Chopra welcomed their first baby via surrogate earlier this year, they have chosen to keep her identity private. But now, the married couple is finally revealing their baby girl’s name to the world.

E! News confirmed the pair named their daughter (drum roll, please) Malti Marie Chopra Jonas. Back in January, the Quantico actress announced the baby's arrival in a post on her personal Instagram page.

“We are overjoyed to confirm that we have welcomed a baby via surrogate,” the post read. “We respectfully ask for privacy during this special time as we focus on our family. Thank you so much [red heart emoji].”

Though Malti’s life has been kept private, the couple has celebrated a few parenting milestones on social media. Last weekend, Chopra and Jonas celebrated their first Easter Sunday together as parents. The photo slideshow featured a snapshot of the pair standing under a flower display with giant white bunny ears. The Baywatch star captioned the post, “Happy Easter from us.”

In December 2018, Jonas and Chopra tied the knot in a wedding ceremony that honored her Hindu roots. The couple proclaimed their love for each other in a ceremony led by Nick’s father, Paul Kevin Jonas, Sr., in Jodhpur, Rajasthan. Joe and Kevin were his groomsmen.

Perhaps Jonas and Chopra will share more pics of Malti in the future. *Crosses fingers*
