Teen Mom Leah Messer sure was mysterious when she announced the birth of her third daughter. On Super Bowl night during halftime, she tweeted, "Yes, the time is near... Can't wait to meet you little Miss Calvert!" And sure enough, we got the news on February 4: "Leah gave birth in the early hours of this morning to a beautiful baby girl. Mother and baby are happy and healthy. Leah went into labor late last night, and the baby was born this morning."
That's it? No details? Not even a name! Was Leah going to go all Adele on us and shroud her baby in secrecy? That didn't sound like a very Teen Mom move, if you ask me. Well, it's been a few weeks now and Leah is finally ready to reveal her baby's name. Lord have mercy, it's a doozy. Are you sitting down?
And the name of the Leah Messer/Jeremy Calvert baby shall be: Addalynn Calvert. Of course it would be another crazy, made-up name that starts with the letter A! This is the mother of Alianna and Aleeah we're talking about here (twins by her previous husband, Corey Simms). It's not like she's going to pick a regular name, like Alice, or Angela, or Abigail.

In retrospect I regret not inventing a "Name the Calvert Baby" game, in which we all take turns speculating upon the most likely letter combination for Leah's expected child. Rule 1: Must start with the letter A. Rule 2: Must include double letters. Rule 3: Must sound like two names awkwardly combined with each other. Examples: Alissaleah, Ammymychelle, Areyousssseriouslygoingtonameherthat.
YES, I am making fun of this name. Because! I have to.
Okay, all joking aside, though, I am glad Addalynn was delivered safely. Seriously -- for those who weren't keeping track and counting months, she was born more than a month early (Leah was due March 11). Reportedly there were complications with the C-section. But it all turned out okay, and mom and baby are fine. And maybe we'll see a photo of that baby soon.
What do you think of Leah's name for her new baby?

i like it.. its not too bad
The name itself is not unusual but the spelling is just nuts, but that seems to be the norm now.
The names she chooses are not crazy sounding names...they are normal..just the spellings are off the wall.
I personally have nothing against the off-the-wall spelling of her childrens names. Yeah, Addalynn is a little close to the top. But it is NOTHING compared to my friend who names her child Abbygayle. Seriously? That one made me kind of look twice and go 'nuh uh'.
For awhile (like during her entire pregnancy, I forgot she was pregnant) but now that she's had her daughter and the nave has been revealed, I'd say I have to agree with the other posters, it suited Leah because she named her twins rather unique name also. I personally love it. Why is everyone being judgy or a baby name just becausse they aren't traditional (.i.e. Emily, Abigail, etc)
