“I like the alliteration of the DD,” she explained. “But Dove is peace, I want her to be a peace maker. Even though she is just wild and fun and crazy, I just think there’s a peace that I want to surround her and for her exude.”
Of course, all of those wishes come from a place of maternal love, an emotion Katy shared she only truly understood once she had her own kid.
“Today I told my mother that the day I realized how much she loved me is the day I had my own daughter, Daisy Dove,” she wrote on Instagram May 12 in honor of Mother’s Day. “There is nothing like a Mother’s love… never take it for granted… Happy Mother’s Day to all the mothers and caretakers — any way you come.”
Daisy is the only daughter of Katy and fiancé Orlando, who also shares son Flynn, 13, with ex Miranda Kerr.
