Lena Dunham has publicly reached out to ex-boyfriend Jack Antonoff to remind him of the list of the potential baby names they made during their relationship.
The 32-year-olds five-year relationship with the musician, 34, ended in December, but they have remained close friends.
Though Lena now reveals that they had discussed starting a family two years before it all ended and considered calling their children Carrot, Gracious and Na.
Going public with a picture of the list on Twitter on Monday night, Lena wrote: Hey @jackantonoff I just found a potential baby name list we made in 2015.
I could definitely keep this private, but then the world wouldnt know that you suggested Carrot over and over… Love u!!! (sic)

Penning an essay for Vogue, Lena looked to the future when she said: Adoption is a thrilling truth Ill pursue with all my might. But I wanted that stomach.
I wanted to know what nine months of complete togetherness could feel like. I was meant for the job, but I didnt pass the interview. And thats OK. It really is.

Later, in a column addressing her split from Jack, Lena admitted that the finality of their break-up conversation nearly killed her, and even admits to asking if they could still meet for dates.
She wrote: We sat in our shared kitchen of nearly four years and quietly faced each other, acknowledging what nobody wanted to say. That obsessive connection had turned to blind devotion, and the blinders were coming off to reveal that we had evolved separately (the least shocking reason of all and perhaps the most common).
That anger wasnt sexy or sustainable. That our hearts were still broken from trying so hard to fix it but no longer uncertain about whether or not we could. The finality nearly killed me, and I remember muttering, “But what if we still went on dates?” He laughed sadly. “Whatever you want.”
