Donna Kelce is sharing how she came up with her grandma name — and jokingly revealing the "selfish" reason she chose it.
During an episode of Not Gonna Lie with Kylie Kelce, the Kelce matriarch spoke with her daughter-in-law, Kylie Kelce, was asked about her grandma name, Dee Dee. Kylie, who shares daughters Wyatt, 6, Elliotte, 4, Bennett, 2, and Finn, 7 months, with husband Jason Kelce, asked her mother-in-law to share how she came up with the name.
"Dee Dee came about very selfishly because most babies say the D word first," joked Donna. "And so I thought, okay, there is already a Nana, and there's probably going to be some other names and things like that. So I just did the initial of my name twice. That's all."

"I love it. And also, I love the idea that there was a chance that you beat Jason to the punch," Kylie joked. "If it was a Dee Dee instead of a Dada, we could have held that over him. forever."
"Yeah, but the "A" vowel is very..." Donna said. "It's easy and it's quick," Kylie chimed in.
"Well. Jury's still out on Finn!" Kylie added as Donna laughed. "We still have a chance!"
Elsewhere in the podcast, Donna revealed which of Kylie's daughters reminds her the most of both Jason and his younger brother Travis Kelce.
When it comes to which of the girls reminds her most of Jason, Donna said, "It's gotta be Wyatt."
Of the couple's eldest daughter, Kylie said to Donna, "There was a time when Wyatt, I think she was around 2, and I remember her having a 'tough moment,' we'll call it. And you were staring at her in a very observant way. And I looked at you and I said, 'Is it giving you PTSD?' And you said, 'A little bit.' "

However, when asked about which granddaughter most reminds her of her younger son, Travis, Donna struggled a little bit.
"Well, it's usually the second or the third child because they're the ones that are fearless. And you're learning with the first child," she explained. "So I would have to say that Ellie probably is the one that throws herself off the couch without abandon. She has no fear."
Back in December 2023, Donna spoke with PEOPLE and opened up about spending time with her oldest granddaughter, Wyatt.
"Baking is a wonderful activity to do with family and friends, and now I have a little helper in Wyatt," she raved. "I look forward to passing on my tips and tricks to the girls so that they can eventually pass these traditions on to their own families one day."
