Kate Hudson's New Baby Girl's Name Has a Very Sentimental Meaning

Congratulations are in order: Kate Hudson has given birth to her third child. In an Instagram announcement, Hudson revealed that she welcomed a new baby daughter yesterday, October 2, who joins the actress's two sons, 14-year-old Ryder and 7-year-old Bingham. Hudson also revealed the adorable name: Rani Rose Hudson Fujikawa.
Curious about the unique name Rani? Hudson and boyfriend Danny Fujikawa chose a very sentimental moniker. "We have decided to name our daughter Rani (pronounced Ronnie) after her grandfather, Ron Fujikawa," Hudson writes in her post. "Ron was the most special man who we all miss dearly. To name her after him is an honor. Everyone is doing well and happy as can be. Our family thanks you for all the love and blessings that have been sent our way and we send ours right back." Scroll down to see the announcement for yourself. Congratulations to the adorable new family!
