Given Sheeran and Seaborn's first daughter's name, it seems as though the couple has a thing for names related to the Solar system and space.

Lyra is a small constellation that is part of the modern 88 constellations recognized by the International Astronomical Union. It is also one of the 48 constellations listed by the 2nd-century astronomer Ptolemy.

Jupiter, on the other hand, is the fifth planet from the Sun and the largest in the Solar System. Could Sheeran and Seabon be trying to portray something with their choice of unique names?

A Look At Sheeran And Seaborn's Love Story

The four-time Grammy Award and Seaborn have been married for almost four years, but their love story transcends decades. The pair, who walked down the aisle in 2018, were reportedly childhood friends turned lovers.

Seaborn, who lives a notoriously private life, is her husband's musical muse and has been tagged as the inspiration behind chart-toppers like "Perfect," Photograph," and Sheeran's verse on Taylor Swift's "End Game."

Did we mention that she is also close pals with Swift? Although Sheeran and Seaborn have known each other their whole lives they didn't become a romantic item until 2015 when they had a fortunate reconnection.

Sheeran was touring the U.S. while Seaborn was working on Wall Street in Manhattan. The pair soon kicked it off and in no time became lovers.

Seaborn was responsible for her now-husband's hiatus from music in 2016 as the English singer once revealed in an interview, "We were basically like, ‘Let’s both quit our jobs and let’s have a year of forming a tight bond and a relationship.’ So we went traveling and spent every day for a year together."

The duo got engaged in January 2018 and by December had reportedly made things official!
