Chiefs fans share precious metal name ideas for Patrick & Brittany Mahomes’ girl

Before they were married, Patrick Mahomes gave then-girlfriend Brittany a special Valentine’s Day gift in 2016: a dog.

Brittany named the pup Steel after her favorite football team at the time: the Pittsburgh Steelers.

The couple later added another dog, who was named Silver. When Brittany gave birth to a daughter in 2021, she was named Sterling. And when Patrick Lavon Mahomes III was born in November 2022, he was nicknamed Bronze.

You don’t need a 153 IQ* to see the common thread in those names, right?

*As far as you know, dear reader, that’s my IQ

So with the Mahomeses revealing they will be having another girl , fans have wondered if they will continue with the precious metals names and if so, what that name could be.

One fan suggested a nod to Brittany Mahomes’ friend, a certain superstar singer, while also using a precious metal.

Here are seven possibilities.

Goldie: This one is self-explanatory

Ruthenium: According to the BullionByPost website, ruthenium is a platinum group metal that is used in alloys to improve durability and resistance to corrosion. Ruth or Ruthie would make a nice name

Mercury: This is a metal, although it is liquid at room temperature

Nickel: This one is a familiar, too

Platinum: The Royals Society of Chemistry noted “the name is derived from the Spanish ‘platina,’ meaning little silver ”

Magnesium: This could be shortened to Maggie

Aluminum: Could be shortened to Lumi or Minnie

Here are some other suggestions for Mr. and Mrs. Mahomes that fans have made on X.
