TikTok mom couldn’t settle on a baby name — so she offered $500 to anyone who could help her

Ryan Brennan | October 18, 2025

Jayci Underwood is in need of a baby name consultant — so she turned to her followers. 

The 34-year-old social media influencer, who is currently pregnant with her third child, was so desperate for baby name ideas that she’s offering a cash prize to anyone who can find her the perfect name. 

“I will pay you $500 if you help me name my baby,” she said in a July 21 TikTok video

The post has garnered more than two million views and 80,000 comments over the past three months as followers bombarded her with suggestions.

“Nobody talks about how freaking hard it is to name a baby,” Underwood continued in the video. 

She went on to add that she already has a Quincy (Q, Quinn and Quince) and Kovey James (KJ) before listing some of her preferences, which included a strong liking for names that start with R or S. 

She also loves “unique” and “cool” names, but not names that are “too unique” or “too cool.” 

On July 28, Underwood and her husband, Matt, took to TikTok to share one more preference as they revealed the gender of their soon-to-be third child — a baby boy. 

In a TikTok update three days later, she admitted that “boy names are so much harder than girl names.”

Underwood reiterated that her offer is still open and added that she and her husband love a good nickname — so long as the first name isn’t a nickname itself. 

Fans and followers have continued to share their best baby name ideas in the comment section. 

Some of the baby names that received a “heart” or comment from Underwood include Rhodes, Kostner, Baker, Smith, Berkley, Kip, Leander, Oakley, Shepherd, Zakius and Jett. 

In one comment under her July 21 post, someone suggested the name Megatron — and Underwood joked that it was similar to her son’s suggestion of Phineas or Ferb. 

Jayci Underwood explains why baby name ideas are hard to settle on

Settling on a baby name can be one of the most stressful aspects of welcoming a baby. 

While Underwood explained that it didn’t take long for her to settle on the name Quincy for her daughter, she admitted to having a hard time with boy names — especially when it comes to baby No. 3. 

"It's the most important thing ever," she said in an interview with PEOPLE, published Oct. 10.

"It's something that they’re gonna be known by the rest of their life," she said. "It’s not something that most people change often and it’s not an easy change. So it feels like it’s such an important job.” 

She went on to add that she and her husband are looking everywhere for inspiration. 

“I asked ChatGPT, I looked through books and went through different social media videos,” she told People. 

In her July 31 post, she explained that she is having a hard time keeping up with all of the comments under her videos.

“I have only been able to go through so many,” she admitted of the thousands of comments before urging viewers to continue sending her their best baby name suggestions. 

At the end of the day, she just wants something that strikes a balance between “strong and masculine,” but also “fun at the same time.” 

“One day they’re gonna go out into the world, and the majority of our relationship will be them as an adult and me as an adult,” she told People.

“You want to give them a super cutesy name when they’re five and it works, but will it work at 35 in a business setting?” she added.
