Kailyn Lowry's son, formerly named Isaac, has opted to be called Elliott, marking a significant step in his identity journey. During a podcast episode, Elliott revealed that his name change stems from a desire to feel authentic and distanced from his childhood self. Lowry expressed her support, noting the importance of recognizing one's own identity. Elliott also discussed his decision to publicly come out as gay, stating it was time to share his truth rather than allowing others to dictate his narrative. Their conversation highlights themes of identity, support, and personal growth.
I started going by Elliott because at some point I wasn't happy with my first name because it just doesn't feel like me.
I can appreciate the separation between who you were and who you are today. It's cool for you to decide what makes you comfortable.
I want to make it clear that this is for me, and I've built up the courage over time to make it known and let me have my moment.
When I saw that all the school paperwork said Elliott, I was like, 'Wait a minute, are we going by Elliott now?'
The change is important for the teen to forge his own identity by using a name he chose.
