Many of Cox's celebrity friends took to the comments section to wish Coco a happy birthday, including \"Queer Eye\" fashion expert Tan France and Academy Award-winning actress Octavia Spencer.

Over on her Instagram Stories, Cox also revealed what may be her nickname for Coco, calling the teen \"my coconut\" in a snap of her holding Coco when she was a baby. \"The best kind of nut,\" she wrote.

Jennifer Aniston, Cox's \"Friends\" co-star and Coco's godmother, also took to her Instagram Stories to celebrate the special day. \"Happy Birthday my sweet Cocolicious!\" she chimed in.

Coco is the only child shared between Cox and ex-husband David Arquette.
