KEY POINTS:
Three-day-old Zealand-New has no idea what all the fuss is about.
The newborn has her family and the nurses swooning but it's not just because she's cute.
Her patriotic parents wanted to be different while naming the baby, whose full name is Zealand-New Sharron Phyllis Atareta Davoren.
Her grandmother Sharron Te Moni chose the moniker and mum Tomicina Davoren, a beneficiary, and father Mana Te Moni, a labourer, loved it.
"She was just playing around with names and it just popped into her head," Ms Davoren said. "It's different. I like being out there."
The 20-year-old mother of four gave birth to Zealand-New by caesarean section on Sunday at 11.38am.
Speaking to the Herald in her room at the maternity ward at Tauranga Hospital, Ms Davoren said she had received some positive feedback.
"Everyone's buzzing out. My son calls her New Zealand-New. People might play around with it and call her Aotearoa, the Maori version."
Ms Davoren and Mr Te Moni, who live separately, named their other three children Rlexus Toara Chantz Te Moni, 4, Mikaere Morgan Te Moni, 2, and Korizma-Lake Vonnita Manaaki Te Moni, 1.
