Israeli media personality and TV presenter Maayan Adam, who has become a prominent social media figure, is celebrating a series of happy events. Following a period of grief after losing her sister in the Hamas attack on October 7, Adam recently welcomed her third child, a son, who is a younger brother to her daughters Tavor and Kedem. Shortly after the birth, her partner Yuval Tzaner proposed to her in the hospital, presenting her with an engagement ring as she held their newborn son.

The public has been speculating about the baby's name, and Adam has turned it into an interactive game for her followers. She announced on Instagram that betting on the name is now open for the last time, providing a list of clues. Adam revealed the name is a "beautiful Hebrew word" that "we all use," describing it as "effortless, a simple name." She added that it "fits this child and his and our story very well, truly the precise word for him," and hinted that it appears in the Bible and iconic songs.

Adam also shared a surprising detail: the name is not registered in the Population and Immigration Authority's database, meaning fewer than five people bear it, making it either very rare or nonexistent. She clarified that despite its rarity, it is "a great and legitimate name" and not pretentious or obscure.

Earlier this week, the 39-year-old Adam shared an unfiltered video of her postpartum body, opting to show the reality of the early days after childbirth. She humorously tagged her fitness trainer, hinting at her intention to return to her workout routine soon.

Her followers continue to guess the name ahead of the upcoming circumcision ceremony, where the name will be officially revealed.
