Gigi Hadid<\/strong><\/a> revealed in a photo from her daughter\u2019s 4th birthday party that her full name is Khai Malik, and that the girl\u2019s surname is that of her dad, Zayn Malik<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n The supermodel previously hadn\u2019t revealed whose last name Khai took after her September 19, 2020, birth. Gigi, 28, and Zayn, 31, called it quits<\/a> for good in October 2021, after rekindling their romance in December 2019.<\/p>\n \u201c\u2018KHAI MALIK,\u2019 STOP IM SOBBING,\u201d one Zigi fan wrote in the comments, while another added, \u201c\u2019Khai Malik\u2019 she\u2019s so lucky!!\u201d with crying emojis.<\/p>\n The reveal came amid a carousel of photos from Khai\u2019s birthday party<\/a> that Gigi shared on Thursday, September 19. She revealed her daughter is a huge fan of Disney\u2019s Descendants<\/em>, and a proclamation showed \u201cKhai Malik\u201d being invited to join the current class at Auradon Prep, the school the Descendants attend.<\/p>\n The Guest in Residence founder shared more photos from the party, including Khai\u2019s Baby Yoda-themed birthday cake that was later shown to have rainbow layers inside. Her daughter\u2019s white pony had its mane and tail dyed in rainbow colors as well.<\/p>\n While Zayn didn\u2019t appear in any of the photos from the party, Gigi acknowledged him<\/a> in the caption, writing, \u201cOur girl is 4 today and we celebrated all week!!!\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cShe loves animals (fantastical ones too), music, baby Yoda, all things nature and bugs, Descendants, anything squishy or miniature, and if possible \u2013 will be in the water from dawn til dusk. She is curious, adventurous, loving, and oh so witty,\u201d the Maybelline ambassador wrote about her daughter.<\/p>\n Gigi then gushed about how her only child is her greatest gift in life.<\/p>\n \u201cKhai \u2013 it is my life\u2019s greatest joy and pride to be your mama!!!! Thank you for the four best years of my life \u2013 you remind me to live life to the fullest every day, in the most simple and beautiful ways. Your possibilities are endless, my sweetest love!!!\u201d she concluded in the post.<\/p>\n One fan noticed the various callouts in Gigi\u2019s message, writing in the comments, \u201c\u2018OUR GIRL,\u2019 \u2018DAWN TILL DUSK,\u2019 \u2018KHAI MALIK,\u2019 STOP I\u2019M CRYING.\u201d Zayn released the song \u201cDusk Till Dawn\u201d in 2018, when he and Gigi were still a couple<\/a> during their first go at romance.<\/p>\n The \u201cPillowtalk\u201d crooner shared his own tribute to his daughter in a Thursday, September 19, Instagram post<\/a>. Zayn shared a snapshot holding Khai in his arms while at the beach looking out at the ocean.<\/p>\n \u201cHappy birthday to the most important person in my life, I love you more than words allow me to express, beyond proud to call you my daughter \u2026 grateful for every second I get to spend next to you, as you become the incredible person I know you already are. Four years ago today my life changed forever, and I wouldn\u2019t be the man I am today without you,\u201d the former One Direction member wrote.<\/p>\n While Khai was seen in several of the photos from the party, Gigi blurred out her daughter\u2019s face. She\u2019s made it a point over the years to never show what her little girl looks like<\/a>, only sharing pictures taken from the side or behind. Zayn posed with his daughter\u2019s face looking away from the camera.<\/p>\n The Los Angeles native addressed the issue about how she and her then-partner wanted their daughter to live a private life in an open letter on X in July 2021.<\/p>\n \u201cI write this all to say: to the paparazzi, press, and beloved fan accounts, you know we have never intentionally shared our daughters face on social media. Our wish is that she can choose how to share herself with the world when she comes of age, and that she can live as normal of a childhood as possible, without worrying about a public image that she has not chosen,\u201d Gigi wrote.<\/p>\n She added, \u201cIt would mean the world to us, as we take our daughter to see and explore NYC, and the world, if you would PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE blur her face out of the images, and if and when she is caught on camera, I know it\u2019s an extra effort, but as a new mom, I just want the best for my baby, as all parents do.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n![\"Gigi](\"https:\/\/www.lifeandstylemag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Gigi-Hadid-Reveals-Daughter-Khai-s-Full-Name-at-Birthday-Party-328.jpg?fit=400%2C500&quality=86&strip=all\")
