Will Smith fans have been left shocked after realising why his kids are named Jaden and Willow.
It seems like the penny has finally dropped for certain social media users as to why Will and Jada Pinkett Smith’s kids are named that way.
This comes after the famous family has been thrust into the spotlight after the Oscars night showdown, which saw Will lash out at comedian Chris Rock.
The name revelation was shared by one Twitter fan and it’s clearly very obvious once you know about it.
But this hasn’t stopped other fans from being left astounded by the real reason why the Hollywood couple named their kids Jaden and Willow.

In a since-deleted tweet, a fan named Shek detailed her response to finding out that the siblings’ names are in fact a play on their own.
Another user wrote: “Hold up, Will O. Smith… Jada N. Smith.. BRUH”
A second added: “I was today years old when I realised Jaden and Willow Smith’s names are just their parents’ names in different forms???? Goodbye.”
“I feel so dumb for just realising that Willow and Jaden Smith’s names are just variations of their parents’ names,” a third penned.

Jaden, 23, and Willow, 21, have both dabbled in music and acting like their parents, with Jaden starring alongside his dad in The Pursuit of Happyness (2006) and Willow doing the same in 2007’s I Am Legend.
Smith also has a son from his previous relationship with his ex-wife Sheree Zampino, Willard Smith III, who more commonly goes by Trey Smith.
Commenting on Trey’s name, another fan tweeted: “I thought his name was Trey this whole time just found out today that Trey is his nickname because he’s the third Willard Smith.”

This revelation comes after Oscars night when many viewers complained about Will’s violent outburst on Chris Rock.
Many fans were outraged and complained to the US Federal Communications Commission (FCC), with a total of 66 viewers writing to the TV regulator.
Host of the night Chris Rock made a G.I Jane joke about Jada, in reference to her bald head.
However it didn’t land well at the Smith table as Jada had been suffering from alopecia.
This led to Will storming up to the stage and smacking Chris across the face.
