Katy Perry’s clever hint to fans about her daughter’s name just three months ago

Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom welcomed their daughter Daisy Dove Bloom earlier this week.

But while their baby girl’s name came as a surprise to some fans, others had a feeling about the name after Katy dropped several hints months ago.

Back in May, then heavily-pregnant Katy announced the release of her first track from her album Smile.

The song name was Daisies, which was essentially the first hint the singer gave to fans.

She then continued to leave very subtle hints on social media ever since.

Katy said the song Daisies is a symbol of “strength and resilience” for her and says it’s the anthem for “going for your dreams”.

Announcing the song on Instagram, she penned: “I wrote this song a couple months ago as a call to remain true to the course you’ve set for yourself, regardless of what others may think.

“Recently, it has taken a new meaning for me, in light of what the whole world is experiencing. Each of us is one in more than seven billion, with our own story of strength and resilience to tell.

“DAISIES is out now. I hope it will be the soundtrack to going for your dreams now… especially the ones we left behind.”

Katy then went on to release a music video for the hit song, which showed her running in a field of daisies.

The hitmaker later dropped a major clue to fans of her baby name, launching daisy-motif sandals from her shoe brand.

Some eagle-eyed fans began to speculate after Katy revealed that profits of the shoes would be going to a charity helping kids of all ages affected by the pandemic.

Taking to Instagram, she penned: “Sticks and stones may break your bones, but Daisies are the friendliest flower.”

And just less than a week later, Katy took to social media once more to share a snap of a yellow daisy flower, alongside a caption of lyrics from her song.

She wrote: “I’ll never let ’em change me ’til they cover me in… #daisies.”

Katy really went in heavy on the hints on May 17, when she opened up about what the flower represents to her during the American Idol final.

She actually performed the song live for the first time ever that day, adding to just how important it is to her,

Just a couple of days after the fact, Katy even released her own Instagram Story filter for the song, which showed daisies dance around her head.

Sharing a clip of herself with the filter, she asked fans: “What lyric from #Daisies embodies you? Let my new Instagram filter decide for you.”

That same week, Katy shared a sweet snap with fans of herself wearing a daisy print face mask.

Back in March she dramatically revealed her pregnancy by cradling her stomach in the final scenes of her video Never Worn White.

Four months later, Katy announced that she and fiancé’ Orlando were celebrating after the safe arrival of their daughter.

The couple have said they are “floating with love and wonder” as they took the unusual step of announcing the birth through Unicef, with the pair being goodwill ambassadors for the charity.
