Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck’s 15-year-old has been pictured for the first time since revealing their new name, Fin, according to new photographs published by the Daily Mail on Wednesday (April 10).
Fin was seen meeting their mother at a nail salon, likely somewhere in Los Angeles, USA. They were sporting an oversized black T-shirt with a long sleeve underneath that looked like tattoos.
The teenager held onto a green shoulder bag as they walked in cargo shorts while waving hello to someone, probably Jennifer.
This is the first time Fin was seen after making their public debut with their new name at a memorial service for Jennifer’s father, where they wore a buzz-cut hairstyle and introduced themselves before reading a bible verse.

Fin was previously known as Seraphina Rose but might’ve changed their name to affirm their identity, as some transgender or gender-nonconforming people do, which often means a fresh start.
In footage showing Fin at the religious establishment, they didn’t specify which pronouns they used while speaking at the congregation at Christ Church United Methodist in Charleston, West Virginia, on Saturday (April 6).
The memorial service was streamed live on Facebook and was held in honor of Jennifer’s father, William Jack Garner, who died a week earlier at age 85.
The live stream showcased William’s other grandchildren, 18-year-old Violet Anne and 12-year-old Samuel, before Fin took to the church lectern, saying: “Hello, my name is Fin Affleck.”
They then reportedly read Chapter 16, Verse 8, from the Book of Proverbs: “Better is a little with righteousness, than a large income with injustice.”
Proverbs 16:8 advises that having a modest amount acquired with integrity is preferable to possessing great wealth obtained through unethical means. It emphasizes the value of moral integrity over material gain.

Fin, Violet Anne, and Samuel are Jennifer and Ben Affleck’s children. The actors split in 2015 and finalized their divorce in 2018, but they maintain a friendly relationship.
In 2022, Ben married Jennifer Lopez, whose own 16-year-old child, Emme Maribel Muñiz, uses gender-neutral pronouns and has become close with Fin as a step-sibling.
Ben, Jennifer, and J.Lo appeared to have fully embraced having a queer family. In fact, Finn has often been spotted spending time out with Emme, strolling around the City of Angels.
The stepsiblings have been known to enjoy each other’s company prior to the 54-year-old singer and the Gone Girl actor tying the knot in 2022.
Emme and Fin have been previously spotted during a Disney World outing with Jennifer (Garner), as well as spending time with Ben while notably sharing similar fashion and hairstyles.
Speaking on the TODAY show last year, Jennifer (Lopez), who is also a mother to Emme’s twin Max, whom she shares with ex-husband Marc Anthony, opened up about having both her children and her stepkids all under the same roof.

The Queen of Dance said: “It’s been, like, a really kind of emotional transition, but at the same time all your dreams coming true.
“It’s just been a phenomenal year.
“Like, my best year I think since my kids were born.”
In December 2023, a source also told ET that the blended family enjoys spending time together, thanks to the children’s close bond.
The source revealed: “Ben and Jen’s kids get along super well, and everything has been easy and seamless on that front, which has been really nice for them.
“Ben and Jen Garner are also in a good place.
“They have a mutual understanding that their children come first and are committed to that.”
According to an article published by Hola! in 2021, Fin and Emme attended the same school, with Fin reportedly having helped Emme adjust after their move to Los Angeles from Miami.
