  • Kim Or Azulai named her son Dylan after a TV character.
  • The character Dylan was from the youth series "Ha'Ay" (The Island).
  • Azulai watched the show when she was 9 years old.
  • She believes her son is destined to save the world.

Israeli model and influencer Kim Or Azulai has revealed the inspiration behind her son Dylan's name. Approximately three weeks after she and her partner, Yiftach Ziv, announced their firstborn's name, Azulai confirmed it was chosen after a character from a youth television series she watched as a child. During an "Ask Me Anything" session with her followers on Instagram, Azulai was asked if the name Dylan was inspired by the character Dylan from the show "Ha'Ay" (The Island), who is destined to save the world. Azulai confirmed this was the source, humorously explaining her childhood reasoning. She stated that as a 9-year-old watching the show, she learned Dylan would save the world, and she decided that was her son's destiny. "And therefore, Dylan Ziv will save the world," she declared, indicating her belief in her son's future. The name, chosen nearly two decades after she first saw the series, reflects a significant childhood influence.
