Kaavia's unique name means "full of imagination" and has an Indian origin. She was also named James, after her godfather.

Union and Wade have been married for 6 years. Union is stepmother to Wade's children.

Union told People in February 2019, “she looks just like Dad, but I’d like to think the attitude is from me. She will stare into your soul and tell you about yourself through her eyes.”

Union suffers from adenomyosis, a condition in which the inner lining of the uterus breaks through the muscle wall of the uterus. She endured unsuccessful IVF treatments and multiple miscarriages for nearly five years.

Ultimately, she and husband, Wade, decided to use IVF and a gestational surrogate to carry their baby. This was a decision that she says was an emotional hurdle that her husband got over before she did.

Union and Wade have been married for 6 years. Union is stepmother to Wade's13-year-old daughter, Zaya, and his two sons,18-year-old Zaire, and 7-year-old Xavier Zechariah.

In addition to his four biological children, the former NBA star was granted custody of his sister's teenage son, Dahveon Morris, by a Floridan judge in 2014.
