Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner’s middle child, formerly known as Seraphina Rose, appears to have publicly embraced a new name during a recent family memorial. The 15-year-old introduced themself as Finn Affleck on Saturday at a service honoring Garner’s father, William Garner.
At the memorial, Finn looked poised and confident, dressed in a sharp suit and tie and sporting a stylish bob haircut. During the ceremony, Finn read Proverbs 16:8, sharing a meaningful passage with family and friends in attendance.
Before the service in West Virginia, Finn was seen alongside stepsister Emme, Jennifer Lopez’s 16-year-old daughter. Observers also noticed Finn’s bold new pink hairstyle, marking a clear and confident personal transformation.
Jennifer Garner took to Instagram over the Easter weekend to announce the passing of her father, writing a heartfelt tribute that captured the emotions of the day. She shared:
“My dad passed away peacefully on Saturday afternoon. We were with him, singing ‘Amazing Grace’ as he left us (whether we carried him in our arms or guided him — that’s up for debate). While there is no tragedy in the death of an 85-year-old who lived a full, healthy, beautiful life, I know that grief is inevitable and often waits around unexpected corners.”
In her post, Jennifer also expressed gratitude toward the Charleston Medical Center and City of Hope, thanking them for helping prolong her father’s life and allowing him to spend his final moments in the places he loved most. She described him enjoying time with his daughters and grandchildren, cheering for his beloved “Aggies,” boating, and most importantly, being by the side of his wife of 59 years, Jennifer Garner’s mother.
Finn Affleck, as the middle child of Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner, joins an older sister, Violet Anne, 18, and a younger brother, Samuel, 12. The family has been through much together, and this recent milestone marks a significant moment of personal identity for Finn, who appears to be confidently stepping into their teenage years with self-assurance.
This public introduction of a new name comes at a time of family reflection and mourning, highlighting both the challenges and growth within this high-profile family. Fans and followers have been closely watching, expressing support and admiration for Finn’s courage in embracing their identity so openly.
While the Affleck-Garner family has always been protective of their children’s privacy, this moment underscores a shift toward self-expression and authenticity, showing that even in moments of grief, personal growth and self-discovery can shine through.
