Coronation Street star Lucy Fallon has announced her newborn son’s name after delivering the little one last month. The actress, who welcomed her son with Preston footballer Ryan Ledson, 25, announced that they’ve called their little boy Sonny Jude in a new interview.
The 27-year-old told OK! Magazine: “I kept adding names to a list. I liked a lot of names that Ryan didn’t. Some were a bit out there, like ‘Fox’. ”Despite being drawn to more unusual names, Fallon shared that her boyfriend was adamant they weren’t going to choose an “out there” moniker for their baby for fear he would be "ribbed" growing up.
The sports star shared: “When you’re from Liverpool, there was just no chance – he would get ribbed non stop. As the weeks were going on in the pregnancy, we were calling him Sonny. ”According to Baby Centre UK, the name Sonny is derived from the familiar British nickname, son, used to address a young boy.
The star, who played Bethany Platt in the ITV’s soap, announced she was five-months pregnant in September after suffering a miscarriage earlier in the year.
