Us later reported that the pair chose the unique moniker ahead of their baby girl’s birth. “Willa isn’t a family name and isn’t short for anything,” a source revealed in July 2020. “[It] is a name they had picked out a while ago before the baby’s arrival.”

Meanwhile, Cyrus commemorated the Hannah Montana anniversary in more ways than one. “Hi Hannah, it’s been a while. 15 years to be exact. Since the first time I slid those blonde bangs over my forehead in the best attempt to conceal my identity, then slipped into a puke-pink terrycloth robe with a bedazzled ‘HM’ over the [heart],” she wrote in a letter to her alter ego via Instagram. “I didn’t know then … that is where you would live forever. Not just in [my heart], but [in the hearts of] millions of people around the world.”

She concluded: “You have all my love and upmost gratitude. Breathing life into you for those six years was an honor. … I love you, Hannah Montana.”
