Platinum, nickel, silver and even mercury: fans’ suggestions
Sterling Skye, Patrick “Bronze” Lavon Mahomes III and Golden Raye are the names of the couple’s three children. This combination has led fans to wonder what material could complete the collection. One of them proposed two alternatives depending on the baby’s sex: “If it’s a boy, platinum or nickel (Nicky?); if it’s a girl, diamond or ruby”.
Silver also didn’t take long to appear among the suggestions. Another user pointed out that fans seemed to be overlooking one option: “Why is everyone forgetting about silver? It would be a pretty good name”. The suggestion prompted a remark about the eldest daughter’s name, Sterling, which already refers to sterling silver.

The very participant who had proposed platinum ended up admitting that it was his favorite. “Sterling is basically silver, but my first bet was platinum,” he wrote. However, suggestions kept coming in. Among them appeared a combination of three materials: «Copper… silver… platinum», accompanied by several laughing emojis.
The suggestions went even further. Among the proposals, “Mercury Mahomes” also appeared, while another comment that drew attention was “Cubic zirconia”. This latter idea prompted a humorous response in which one of the participants imagined a future player named Cubic Zirconia Mahomes leading the Kansas City Chiefs in the 2050 Super Bowl.

Patrick and Brittany already have three children: Sterling Skye, born in February 2021; Bronze, who arrived in November 2022; and Golden Raye, born on January 12, 2025.
