The 'Sinners' actress shared the reveal in an entry on her 'Beau Society Substack' on Friday titled 'A Letter to My Daughter', where she addressed her child by name: Harper Haize Allen.
The actress, 29, described the last "few months" as "beautiful and exhausting," and "sacred and so special."
In the lengthy blog, the new mother wrote that she's "learned that motherhood isn't made up of grand moments as much as the tiny, precious ones."
The 'Bumblebee' star continued, "The sway of tired hips in the middle of the night, your little milk-drunk smiles, and the quiet realization, over and over again, that my heart is now somehow living outside of my body and it always will."
"And even though I know I am meant to guide you through this life, Harper Haize Allen, the truth is that already, you have taught me far more than I could ever teach you," she went on. "One day you'll read this and know that to be true, my sweet girl.”
For fans, the reveal was more than just a baby-name announcement. It was a reminder of how much has changed for Steinfeld over the past year, from major career projects to stepping into motherhood.
The wholesome update added an extra dose of joy ahead of Father's Day and gave followers another reason to celebrate the couple's growing family.
