While being known to remain extremely private when it comes to his family life, Rupert Grint once revealed an adorable insight into his daughter's unique name.
It was back in 2020 when the Harry Potter star, now 34, welcomed his first child with partner Georgia Groome - who we'll all know best for starring in the iconic 2008 chick-flick Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging.
While the pair have shared very little about their almost two-year-old since she was born, Grint did once open up about what inspired his daughter's name. Have a listen:
Last year, the actor appeared on The Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon and was discussing life as a dad when he was asked by Fallon what inspired his daughter's name.
"Great name, by the way, Wednesday!" Fallon said, before asking: "Why Wednesday?"

And yep, you all guessed it... the name was inspired by none other than The Addams Family!
Grint said: "Well... I mean, I'm always hesitant to say The Addams Family! But yeah, it was kind of The Addams Family.
"Just always loved the name... it kind of memorable."
His little girl's full name is Wednesday G. Grint, which Fallon brought up to the actor.

"Samuel L. Jackson kind of inspired that," Grint said when asked about what the 'G' stood for in his daughter's name.
"Yeah we love the idea of, like, an initial like 'Samuel L. Jackson', 'Michael J. Fox', that kind of 'speaking the initials'. So she's Wednesday G. Grint."
Of course, Jenna Ortega's Wednesday Addams from Netflix's Wednesday - which sent the world into a frenzy last year - more than likely didn't inspire the name as her character wasn't around in 2020... but it's still absolutely iconic.

Grint then went on to discuss fatherhood in more detail during his appearance on the popular US chat show, with him revealing how Wednesday has spent most of her life in America due to him filming his show Servant in Philadelphia.
"She does love Philly. She loves hoagies, she loves water ice. And I mean the big one is Target. She is obsessed with Target," he explained.
"She'd choose that over going to the park, or zoo. But she loves going to different Targets and seeing how the layout is kind of slightly different."

He continued, much to Fallon's laughter: "Sometimes she doesn't buy anything, she just wants to kind of browse. The toy aisle is definitely a draw, but she's more into lip balm, to be fair."
