Reportedly, Ronaldo and Georgina have both chosen their daughter’s name. Georgina later confirmed Ronaldo had chosen “Alana,” while she had chosen “Martina.” The name “Alana” is German for “precious” or “beauty.” It also means “serenity” in Gaelish. Her middle name, “Martina,” is Latin for “Gods of war.”

Georgina later stated that she and Ronaldo were ‘happier than ever’ after Alana’s birth. In 2017, she and Alana also appeared on the cover of the magazine ‘¡Hola!’ (the Spanish variant of the English magazine ‘Hello!’). During the shoot, Georgina stated that Alana had brought her and Ronaldo closer, terming the period as a “very special time” for them both.

Georgina also revealed that Ronaldo had thrown a surprise dinner for her and her family after Alana’s birth, which made her feel more “loved and cared for.”

She also said that Alana and the other children were the soul of the family and the first thing they did after waking up was to hug and kiss the kids and make sure they had whatever they needed.

Are Alana’s Parents Planning More Children?

Portuguese papers reported that Ronaldo had apparently stated in an interview with a Chinese channel that he and Georgina were likely to have more children, as Cristiano Jr. wished for six siblings. His fans loved the idea, as seven is also the number of Ronaldo’s jersey number and part of the name of his fashion brand ‘CR7.’ As of now, they are a cheerful family of six, consisting of Ronaldo, Georgina, and the children: Cristiano Jr., Mateo Ronaldo, Eva Maria dos Santos, and Alana.
