Latto recently discussed her future family plans.

Latto says that she wants to get married and have a baby so she can settle down on a farm with chickens, pigs, and other animals. She discussed her plans for the future during a recent interview with Harper’s Bazaar. The conversation began with her discussing her given name, Alyssa Michelle Stephens, and why she isn’t a fan of it.

“I don’t really like my name. Often, I ask my mama what the hell she was thinking? Because how (do) you birth a star with a regular name? What?” she sighed. “Before I was rapping, I really thought I was that girl, like 10 years old. She should have just named me something more star quality to it. Alyssa Michelle Stephens, huh?”

From there, Latto explained that she has a list of names she has in mind for her future daughter. “I have this whole long list of what I’m gonna name my daughter,” the 24-year-old said. She added that she can’t wait to “get married and have a baby.” She further explained: “I really just want to go out and get a house in the country and have like 10 dogs and maybe like some chickens and pigs and horses – as pets. And just have my kids… that’s the goal. But not tomorrow." Elsewhere in the interview, Latto spoke about her performance with Mariah Carey, working with Trina and Saweetie, and more.
