Lady Gaga has welcomed a baby girl with fiancé Michael Polansky — and, according to TMZ, picked a name that nods to her musical past.

Here we are, and Lady Gaga has actually gone and named her daughter something that gives the fans a proper trivia point to argue about. As per TMZ, the baby was born on 9 June 2026 at Cedars-Sinai out in Los Angeles. The paperwork says she’s called Rose Bean Polansky – though, true to form, Gaga and fiancé Michael Polansky haven’t posted a thing about the birth themselves, let alone their choice of name or even confirmation it’s a girl.

Rose Bean Polansky was born on 9 June 2026 at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles.

That hasn’t stopped the rumour mill, or the sort of forensic digging only Gaga’s fandom can pull off. It turns out, the name ‘Rose’ is probably a reference to her cover of ‘La Vie En Rose’ from her A Star Is Born era. If you’re really into the lore, you’ll remember she’s even got a huge rose tattoo marching up her back, scrawled over with the words ‘la vie en rose’. For once, there’s no deep cut here – she’s just picked something personal, visible, and close to her own musical story.

The real curveball is the middle name ‘Bean’. It’s not a family hand-me-down, but both PEOPLE and TMZ reckon it’s a nod to Carl Bean – the singer and activist whose work inspired Gaga to write ‘Born This Way’. So, there’s plenty for stan Twitter (and your next quiz night) to chew on: a child’s name that sews together her most iconic song from a film and the activist roots of a major anthem.

Low profile, by Gaga standards

If you’re hunting for baby pics or gushy social posts, don’t hold your breath. Gaga and Polansky have been methodical about keeping their family life quiet. Paparazzi did snag a shot of Gaga with the baby in Northern California, the little one clutched to her chest, but that’s as much as we’ve got. They’ve technically been engaged since 2024, but as for a wedding: still no concrete date in public or among the usual leaks.

After wrapping up her tour in April, Gaga’s reportedly opted for domestic life. A source told PEOPLE she was "ready to slow down after her tour", and is currently soaking up the private time with the new arrival. This insider also painted Polansky as fully hands-on – the two "figuring everything out together". There’s a strong sense she’s not about to let this patch of life pass her by just so she can keep up her normal performing pace.

  • Lady Gaga and Michael Polansky’s daughter was born 9 June 2026 and named Rose Bean, with musical and activist nods in the naming.
  • The couple remain engaged since 2024, with no public wedding date set or further family details confirmed.
  • Gaga is reportedly determined to stay out of the public eye and focus on time with the baby, after a busy tour that ended April 2026.
