She was heard saying, "This was when Ranbir and I, both eager parents, were asking our family group to give both boys’ and girls’ names so we were prepared and could zero in on a girl’s name and a boy’s name. So, there were multiple boy names and multiple girl names, and, um, we really liked one boy name."
Revealing how her mother-in-law, Neetu Kapoor, suggested that Raha would go well with the boy's name, the actress said, "We said, ‘Okay, this is a lovely boy’s name.’ I’m not going to reveal that now. We said, okay, this name is lovely, now any more girl names? My mother-in-law, Ranbir’s mom, suggested, ‘What about Raha? It’ll go very well with the boy’s name as well if you ever have a boy. If you have a boy and a girl, it’ll be a really good combination.’ Then she suggested a girl-girl combination as well. But Ranbir and I instantly loved Raha. So we had two names, boy and girl, ready."
