Poureetezadi-Goytowski and Goytowski, who met and fell in love during season 4 of the Netflix series, are also parents to daughter Galileo.
On July 30, the couple shared exclusively with PEOPLE that they’d welcomed their second baby together. At the time, they shared the inspiration behind their son’s meaningful middle name.
“His middle name is a three-dimensional name represented in two-dimensional space in honor of Zack’s Grandpa John, Bliss’s twin brother, and Zack’s Grandma Jean,” they explained.
In October 2024, Poureetezadi-Goytowski spoke with PEOPLE and revealed that before landing on the name Galileo for their daughter, Bliss “vetoed” a few of Zack’s outlandish name suggestions.
“I’ve always loved alliteration,” Goytowski told PEOPLE. “If you remember me talking about names on Love Is Blind that I wanted to name my future child, they were all alliterations, right?”
He noted that fans started to speculate whether his unique and alliterative name ideas were inspired by a specific video game, saying “there’s even an article” about it.
“There’s a video game, Elden Ring. Everyone thought that it was based on Elden Ring bosses,” he explained. “It just so happens that that game has a lot of characters with G’s for their names, but I really like alliterations, and one that I think is very polarizing is Goliath.”
Poureetezadi-Goytowski quickly chimed in, “We will not be naming our children Goliath.”
“Yeah, I got a hard veto,” Goytowski recalled, “But Goliath Goytowski — I love the name. I love the idea of it, but Bliss has vetoed that.”
