On Social media, people were impressed with how Bolt chose to name his children. One of the users quickly linked Thunder and Lightning and said that with two of them together, a storm is highly possible. Another user said, “Listen, when your name is Bolt and you’re the fastest man alive, the universe is telling you to do all the cool things with the baby names.”
The couple welcomed their first child last year and now the two are parents to three children. The world famous athlete has decided not to take part in the Olympics this year as he had already announced his retirement from the sport in 2017. It will be the first time since the 2000 Olympics that track events will not be witnessing the magic of Usain Bolt.
In his previous interviews about the Tokyo Olympics, he said that he is definitely excited to be cheering for the players from the stands recalling that he never got an opportunity to closely watch an Olympic event from the stands.
