:max_bytes(150000):strip_icc():focal(749x0:751x2)/dwayne-johnson-lauren-hashian-7-54049b48848543eaa0e298e3ab701858.jpg)
Hollywood slowed down today when Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson officially announced the name of his newborn son. Not a trendy name, not the name of a movie legend, nor a family legacy… The Rock chose a name that made millions of fans choke up: the name of his best friend – the person who has accompanied him through every pain, every comeback, every victory and defeat for decades.
As soon as the information was shared, social media exploded with emotional comments. Many fans said that this was “the sweetest and purest tribute ever seen in the entertainment industry,” an act that came from a sincere heart that not every star has the courage to do. Because when a father chooses a name for his child, it is not just a name – it is a promise, a memory, an immortal honor.
According to The Rock, that friend is not someone famous in the industry, not a powerful figure, not living in the spotlight. But that is the person who stood by him at the lowest moments of his life: when The Rock’s career almost collapsed, when his love life broke down, when he had to face harsh choices that no one could understand. That person never left him, even when the whole world turned its back.

The child’s name is therefore not just a thank you, but an affirmation that that friendship is the most precious thing he has. Some sources say The Rock considered a lot before making the decision, but in the end, he chose to do what his heart told him to.
The moment The Rock held the baby and introduced his son’s name to everyone made even the most die-hard fans tear up. Fans left comments like:
“I didn’t expect it to be so emotional.”
“This is the most beautiful thing The Rock has ever done.”
“Forget the halo, this is the moment of a father – and a sincere friend.”

Many people even said that this is the reason why the world loves The Rock: despite being a superstar, he still remains honest, knows how to appreciate feelings and is grateful to those who have been by his side during the most difficult times.
In a world full of scandals in entertainment, where everything is often turned into a gimmick, The Rock’s simple but profound action becomes the warmest story. It reminds everyone that fame cannot replace human love – and sometimes, the most beautiful gift is called “friendship”.
The Rock not only welcomed a new life, but also continued the most beautiful story of his life.
