I chose Madison Pettis to be the daughter of Anne and Phillip-Alula ' Lulu ' Ruth Carlyle-with help from my good friend, swanbelieverfan . Go give her some love ❤️

So, I was in the mood to write something The Greatest Showman, and I love Phillip and Anne with all my heart. I'm also really into writing things centered around family, which is why I chose to give them a daughter. I usually give my characters baby boys because I guess, having been around more baby boys than baby girls for most of my life( little brother, more boy cousins than girls, two nephews and one niece, etc. ), it just seems more natural for me. However, Phillip and Anne with a little girl just seemed right to me, so, I went with it.

Anyway, I figure I should tell you that I chose the name ' Alula ' because, in Arabic, it means ' first leap ' and I feel like that signifies Anne and Phillip's relationship, to a point. I chose Ruth because that's either the first or middle name of the woman that( I think, going by Wikipedia ) inspired the character of Anne.

Enjoy!
