Their family grew again in September 2022 with the arrival of their seventh child, a beautiful daughter named Ilaria Catalina Irena Baldwin. While the Baldwins celebrated the new addition to the family with joy and excitement, their choice of name for the baby has sparked some controversy.

The growing Baldwin family no doubt makes them happy, but some people were upset about the name they gave their daughter. Although Hilaria was born in Boston, the couple is famous for choosing unusual names with Spanish origins for their offspring. This caused controversy due to allegations that Hilaria misrepresented her heritage and used a fake Spanish accent in 2020.

Ilaria was criticized by some who claimed it was yet another example of Hilary’s attempts to pass as Spanish despite her heritage. Ilaria is an Italian name meaning “cheerful” and according to some other people, it was very popular in Italy in the mid-2000s.

The controversy surrounding the name Ilaria highlights the Baldwins’ unique approach to naming their children and the ongoing debate about Hilaria’s cultural identity. While they may have intended the name as a loving choice for their daughter, it inevitably stirred conversations about authenticity, representation, and the complexities of cultural identity in today’s world.
Ultimately, the Baldwins’ priority remains the well-being and happiness of their growing family. With seven children now in their care, they are undoubtedly focused on fostering a loving and supportive environment where their children can grow and thrive, no matter what names they choose to bear. As the Baldwins continue their parenting journey, the world watches their dedication to family life with both curiosity and admiration.
