<p id=”par-1_86″><em><a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/tag/gilmore-girls/?swcfpc=1″>Gilmore Girls</a></em> fans last saw a new episode of the beloved series in 2016. <em>Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life, </em>the Netflix revival, ended on a massive cliffhanger. Since then, fans have taken to social media to debate who the father of Rory Gilmore’s baby is and what her life might look like now.<a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/lauren-graham-joins-instagram-and-honors-gilmore-girls-with-first-post.html/”> Lauren Graham</a>, the actor who took on the role of Lorelai Gilmore, Rory’s mother, has been thinking about it, too.

<p id=”par-2_43″>Lauren Graham has spent the years since <em>Gilmore Girls</em> starring in successful TV shows and writing well-loved books. Despite her more recent successes, the famed actor still feels connected to Lorelai Gilmore. She has given a lot of thought to<a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/gilmore-girls-a-year-in-the-life-2-could-the-stars-be-aligning-for-a-second-revival.html/”> a second revival.</a></p>
<p id=”par-3_85″>Graham shared her revival idea during a stop on her recent book tour. According to <a href=”https://www.brit.co/lauren-graham-gilmore-girls-sequel-idea/” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>Brit & Co</a>, Graham told fans that she thinks a second revival would reveal that Rory gave birth to a baby girl. She believes Rory would have followed in her mother’s footsteps by <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/gilmore-girls-was-rory-gilmore-named-after-a-marilyn-monroe-character.html/”>naming her child</a> after herself. Graham theorized that Rory’s daughter would also be named Lorelai but have a different nickname. She’s even picked the nickname. Lauren Graham would love to see Rory Gilmore name her baby Lola.</p>

<p id=”par-4_49″>While Graham has clearly thought a lot about the potential storyline, she cautioned fans against taking her too seriously. Graham told fans that she had just made all of that up, and there had been no conversation about it. She asked the crowd not to get her in “trouble.”</p>

<p id=”par-5_51″>While Graham seems pretty set in her theory that Rory Gilmore would have welcomed a baby girl, Amy Sherman-Palladino has advised fans against making such assumptions. The famed show creator sat down for a chat with<a href=”https://www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv-movie-features/gilmore-girls-ultimate-fall-tv-show-amy-sherman-palladino-netflix-streaming-1234861893/” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”> Rolling Stone</a> last year. During that chat, she discussed <em>Gilmore Girls</em> and its revival’s legacy.</p>

<p id=”par-6_75″>Palladino said she would love to see a boy raised by “sharp, interesting women.” She wants fans to refrain from counting out a potential son in the Gilmore universe. While there are currently no plans to make a second revival, fans have been hopeful since the screen went dark on <em>Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life</em>. If Rory had a boy, we can safely assume he’d likely be named after <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/gilmore-girls-unpopular-opinion-richard-emily-gilmores-separation-didnt-last-long-enough.html/”>family patriarch Richard Gilmore.</a></p>
