The NFL star and his wife have now welcomed three children, each with a distinctive name that follows a charming family theme centered around metals.
The Mahomes family’s unique naming tradition didn’t happen by chance. In a past Instagram Story (April 2023), Brittany revealed the special meaning behind her children’s names and how it all started with their dogs, Steel and Silver.
“We got Steel in college,” she explained. “Then we got our second dog and was gonna name her Sterling because it went with Steel perfect [sic].” However, Brittany quickly changed her mind, deciding that Sterling was better suited for their firstborn daughter, who arrived on February 20, 2021.
To announce her birth, Patrick and Brittany shared a touching photo that captured a closeup of Brittany wearing a sparkly necklace that spelled out “Sterling.” In the image, the newborn’s tiny hand is seen gently gripping her mother’s finger, creating a tender moment that symbolizes the start of their journey as parents.
When the couple welcomed their second child, a son, on November 28, 2022, they continued the theme. The boy was named Patrick “Bronze” Lavon Mahomes III, after his father.
In the Instagram birth announcement for Bronze, the couple shared a sweet photo of the newborn lying on a custom blanket embroidered with the Mahomes name. The baby was pictured next to a diamond-encrusted bracelet with “BRONZE” written on it in bold letters.
“Having a boy and him being Patrick Mahomes III, Bronze was just meant to be and went perfect,” Brittany said. As for Golden Raye, the name carries a symbolic brightness, which seems fitting for the Mahomes’ sunny outlook on life and family.
While fans have joked about the possibility of more metal-themed names in the future, Patrick has made it clear that the couple is stopping at three kids.
In a July 2024 interview, the Kansas City Chiefs quarterback shared that he feels their family is complete. “Yeah, I’m done. I said three and I’m done,” Patrick said with a laugh during the press conference. “It’s awesome. I always wanted to have kids young. I got to grow up in a locker room, and it made such an impact in my life.”
The NFL star reflected on how important his family is to him, especially as his career keeps him busy for much of the year.
“We’re having our third kid now to join our family, and Brittany does a great job at doing that. We still go out and enjoy our life and let our kids see these great things… It is really cool because I spent so much time in the building at football for these seven, eight months and whenever I’m with my family, I want to enjoy those moments.”
Patrick and Brittany’s journey to parenthood is rooted in a love story that began in their teens. The pair met while they were still in high school in Texas and have been inseparable ever since.
The football player even shared a heartfelt message for Brittany on her 18th birthday in August 2013. “Happy birthday to this girl! Love her and hope her 18th is the best!” he wrote alongside a collage of sweet photos of the couple during their younger years.

Now, the high school sweethearts are proud parents to three children, each with a name that reflects their unique bond and playful personalities.
