Candice Swanpoel has been enjoying every second of her first pregnancy. From showing off twinning baby bumps with preggo bestie, Behati Prinsloo, to hilariously using her growing belly as a floatation device, Candice is taking advantage of every magical moment of these precious nine months. That includes an adorable safari-themed baby shower that featured a very special revelation: the baby’s name!

Stuffed lions and giraffes, along with cute creature cupcakes, were decorated specially for her memorable day. Flowers sat next to zebra and tiger lollipops on a table that also held adorable trinkets for the party-goers.

But it was the banner in the back that is surely the most exciting part of the set up. That’s because it very clearly said, “Anacã.” Not only a type of bird that lives in the Amazon (which totally goes with the animal theme of the shower), this is apparently the name of Candice’s soon-to-arrive baby boy. Eee!

Candice proudly posed in a white mini-dress and held her baby-bump for this adorable photo, and we couldn’t be more excited for news of the little guy’s arrival!

Are there any animal-related names you like/love/loathe? How about Cat, Bunny, Bear or …Donkey? Tweet us @BritandCo!
