Hollywood Baby Boom: Margot Robbie and Tom Ackerley Expecting First Child

Hollywood Baby Boom: Margot Robbie and Tom Ackerley Expecting First Child

Over the 4th of July weekend, photos surfaced showing actress Margot Robbie sporting what appears to be a baby bump while on vacation with her husband, Tom Ackerley. Fans are already buzzing with excitement and speculating about what the actress might name her first child, after she hinted naming her firstborn after one of her previous characters.

Will It Be a DC Comics Name?

Many fans are hoping Robbie pays homage to one of her most iconic roles and names the baby Harley, Quinn, or some variation of Harley Quinn, the character she portrayed in Suicide Squad. Robbie brought the fan favorite villain Harley Quinn to life in the 2016 movie and reprised the role in Birds of Prey and The Suicide Squad.

Ever since the pregnancy photos emerged, fans have flooded social media with requests for Robbie to name her child after the DC character. As one fan tweeted, “Margot I know you’re reading this, please name the baby Harley.” Another wrote, “If Margot Robbie’s baby doesn’t have the name ‘Harley’ ‘Harleen’ ‘Quinn’ or ‘Quinzel’ in it…”.

Harley Quinn has become one of Robbie’s most beloved roles, so it would be a fitting tribute to the character that launched her into superstardom. However, some wonder if Warner Bros would allow her to use the trademarked name. Still, Robbie could put her own twist on it by using Quinn as a middle name.

Or Will it Be Barbie?

Others speculate she might give a nod to her role as the famous Mattel doll in the Greta Gerwig movie Barbie. The live-action movie was released in 2023.

Barbie is one of the most iconic toys of all time and playing her on the big screen was another career-defining role for Robbie. Naming her baby Barbie would be the ultimate way to celebrate bringing the beloved doll to life.

If the baby is a girl, she could even give Barbie the Hollywood treatment and name her daughter Barbara. Barbara Robbie has a nice ring it to. And she could still call her Barbie for short.

What’s in a Name?

While Harley and Barbie seem to be the front-runners, there are endless options for what Robbie might name her little one. She may want to give the baby something more traditional and understated.

As fun as it would be to name her child after one of her two most famous roles, ultimately the name she chooses will be a personal decision between her and Ackerley.

No matter what name they decide on, Robbie’s millions of fans around the globe will be thrilled for her new journey into motherhood. She has proven herself as a talented actress starring in films like I, Tonya, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood and Bombshell, for which she received Oscar nominations.

Now she can look forward to experiencing the joys and challenges of parenting. And even if the name she picks isn’t Harley or Barbie, we have no doubt she’ll be a badass mom.
