There was some good and bad news for 'Grey's Anatomy' fans in the Season 17 premiere. While Owen Hunt (Kevin McKidd) and Teddy Altman (Kim Raver) struggled with a dead relationship, Jo (Camilla Luddington) and Jackson Avery (Jesse Williams) tried to have some sympathy sex, which failed miserably, and Richard Webber (James Pickens Jr) and Catherine Fox (Debbie Allen) reunited after being continuously petty with each other. Meredith collapsed at the end of the episode, and we're led to believe that she just might be dying... because she saw Derek (Patrick Dempsey), something we never thought would happen.

But that aside, the sweet part of the episode came when we finally got to know the name of Amelia's baby... it's Scout Derek Lincoln Shepherd. She named him after her brother, something the fans have been screaming for since the Season 16 finale. For those who followed Amelia's backstory in 'Private Practice', would be thrilled to see her finally have some happiness in her life, after suffering so much. She's with Link (Chris Carmack) at the moment, and touchwood, they seem blissful. Let's see how long that lasts, because this is 'Grey's Anatomy'.

"I already cried at Scout Derek Shepherd Lincoln, and then there he was, Derek! My dream came true of the reunion. Grey’s Anatomy is life, please don’t everleave @EllenPompeo! #GreysAnatomy," a thrilled fan tweeted. "Listen @shondarhimes this is not the way it’s supposed to end. Call me, got some things that need some work. But thanks for Scout Derek Shepherd Lincoln. And the actual  DerekShepherd  #GreysAnatomy," a fan wrote.



 



 

"They just going to hit us with baby Derek Shepherd Lincoln and then blindside us with actual Derek Shepherd after Meredith is found unconscious?!  #GreysAnatomy," another fan tweeted. "Ok I hated the first episode, but this second episode has me in tears. Poor Kaden. Scout Derek Shepherd Lincoln. UGH all the feels. Every time I stop crying, I start again. So glad Owen didn't accept Teddy's apology. She sucks so bad. WAIT DEREK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! #GreysAnatomy, " a fan wrote. "I cried so much when they finally told us the name of Amelia and links baby. Scout Derek Shepard Lincoln#GreysAnatomy,"  fan tweeted.
