“It meant a lot, especially in that very special scene,” she said at the time. "It’s an amazing, amazing souvenir that we will forever cherish.”

During a 2020 appearance on Sunday TODAY, Gadot revealed that her second eldest daughter, Maya, calls her “Eema,” the Hebrew word for “mother.”
According to the interview, Maya was dazzled by her mother's superpowers in "Wonder Woman 1984."
“Just yesterday, I showed her a trailer and ... she was looking at the computer, and then she was looking back at me, and she said, ‘You could fly. Eema, you can fly?’” Gadot said to Willie Geist in the interview
“It was like, explain to a 3-year-old girl that it’s not for real. It’s in the movie. I was anchored to a thing,” she said. “So yeah, Maya is still too young to watch the movie, but she will.”
Daniella, Born in 2021
Gadot announced the birth of her third daughter, Daniella, in 2021 with an Instagram post. The post featured Gadot in bed with her whole family.
"My sweet family. I couldn’t be more grateful and happy (and tired) we are all so excited to welcome Daniella into our family," she captioned the post at the time. "I’m sending all of you love and health. GG."
Ori, Born in 2024
Ori is Gadot's youngest daughter. Based on Gadot's Instagram announcement about her birth, we know that the little one was born in 2024, and her name is the Hebrew word for "my light."
