Undoubtedly, the Kardashian-Jenner family understands the significance of a name.

Now that the majority of the siblings of reality stars have children of their own, they have given their offspring meaningful names. Every name holds significance, ranging from appreciative homages (as in the case of Chicago West’s reference to her father’s birthplace) to astute recommendations from Mary Jo “MJ” Shannon, the name-genius mother of Kris Jenner.

Furthermore, if a particular name fails to resonate with these parents, they are not hesitant to rely on their intuition. Initially, Kylie Jenner and Travis Scott gave their son the name Wolf, but later determined it was inappropriate. “We simply did not believe it was him,” “I just wanted to share because I keep seeing Wolf everywhere,” she wrote online prior to revealing that his actual moniker would be Aire.

View the recommendations of Kylie, Kourtney, Kim, Khlóe, and Rob for the following generation of their close-knit family.

North WestBy deviating significantly from societal norms, Kim Kardashian and Kanye West named their first child, who was delivered on June 15, 2013, in the direction of the cardinal. Despite having previously denied rumors of contemplating the cheeky moniker, Kris Jenner, Kim Kardashian’s mother, stated during an appearance on The View that she was “pro North.” “North signifies the most powerful force,” she clarified. “[Kim] says that North is their highest point together.”Saint WestRegarding the couple’s second child, Saint, who was born in December 2015, an acquaintance of theirs informed PEOPLE that Kanye was “deliberating for some time” over the name for him.”It needed to mean something and he agonized over it, probably even more than Kim,” remarked the companion. “Kanye believes that a name is extremely important and that it’s the first sense of identity that we have.””He believes that people live up to their names, which is why he wanted a name with spiritual significance,” the source elaborated.An E! News insider at the time stated that the couple selected Saint because they considered him “a blessing,” particularly in light of the fact that Kim “had such a challenging pregnancy.”Chicago WestChicago was the name given to the third child of the Kardashian-West couple after her parents considered and ultimately rejected a number of family names. “We had intended to name her Jo, in honor of my grandmother, Mary Jo. “Alternatively, we were considering Grace, but then Chicago presented itself,” Kim elaborated on The Ellen DeGeneres Show. “We ended up with Chicago.”Although, they did contemplate one additional family tribute: Donda. “[Kanye] really wanted his mother’s name, and I love that name too, but I just wasn’t sure,” explained Kim. “It’s so much to live up to.” The couple ultimately decided on the appellation of West’s place of origin, reasoning that “that is a place from which he remembers his family and which shaped him.”Psalm WestShortly after the baby boy’s birth on May 10, 2019, Grandma Kris Jenner disclosed the story behind the distinctive appellation of the newest family member.”The idea originated in the Book of Psalms” (biblical source), Jenner explained to ET Online. “In my opinion, it’s an exquisite method to commemorate their emotions. Furthermore, his presence is an epitome of perfection.”Prior to this, a source with close ties to West affirmed to PEOPLE that the moniker reflected Kanye’s renewed commitment to his Christian faith.”Recently, Kanye has been experiencing a spiritual revival. “The significance of each name is unique to Kanye West, Kim Kardashian, and the child,” the source explained. “Psalm is a good reflection of where Kanye and Kim are spiritually.””I am certain that they both now read the Bible on a regular basis.” Kanye West adores the following biblical poetry books: Job, Psalms, Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, and Song of Solomon. “He repeatedly reads them,” the source further stated. “Psalms is the longest book in the Bible, but Kanye believes that there’s a lot of wisdom in them.”The Hebrew term “Psalm” translates to “song.”Stormi WebsterStormi, unlike her cousin, acquired her distinctive name by chance. Kylie Jenner disclosed in an interview with the Evening Standard that she and her ex-boyfriend Travis Scott were contemplating using the moniker “Storm” for their daughter. “I am truly uncertain as to how we perceived Storm. Though her father insisted it was him, I believe it was actually me. “That just kind of stuck with us,” she continued, adding that she incorporated the letter “i” into her baby’s name because she disliked the suffix “Storm.””I feel like there were a lot of other names that I might have even liked better, to be honest, but I feel like Stormi picked her own name, like, it was just her name,” according to Jenner.Aire WebsterKylie withheld the identity of her second child for almost an entire year after his birth. The businesswoman announced via Instagram in January 2023 that she and Travis Scott had decided to adopt the name “Aire.”One user commented on the name announcement post, which also featured the 11-month-old’s face, “Do you think it’s pronounced air or airey?” Kylie responded with a clarification: “AIR,” accompanied by a red heart emoji.Following the announcement of Kylie’s second child’s name, a source informed PEOPLE that it translates to “Lion of God.”The proprietor of Kylie Cosmetics and the rapper originally intended to give their son the name Wolf Jacques, but this choice proved to be short-lived. Kylie announced on her Instagram Story in March 2022 that her infant “is no longer Wolf.””We simply did not believe it was him,” “I simply wanted to share this because Wolf seems to be everywhere,” she remarked at the time.True Thompson“Picking a name for your child is really so tough!” Khloé Kardashian detailed the process of selecting the ideal moniker for her daughter with her then-boyfriend Tristan Thompson on her app and website. “I knew I wanted my baby to have a ‘T’ initial, so one night while we were all at dinner, thinking of some names, my grandma MJ suggested True.”It turns out that the unusual name is part of a family tradition: “She informed me that it was the first name of my great-grandfather and the middle name of my grandfather. It was the only one that remained in Khloé’s mind throughout her entire pregnancy, she explained.Tatum ThompsonKhlóe’s second attempt was no simpler; she delayed revealing the name of her son, Tatum, for nearly a year.The mother of two revealed only Tatum’s initial between the time of his name announcement in May 2023 and his birth in July 2022: it was the only indication of the infant’s concealed appellation. The third Kardashian sister affirmed during an April appearance on The Jennifer Hudson Show that both her daughter True and her younger brother have given names that commence with the letter T.The previously unknown individual’s identity was subsequently disclosed during the season three premiere of The Kardashians on Hulu. Tatum, with whom she shares a sibling in Thompson, was explicitly referenced during her conversation with James Corden at an event promoting Kendall’s 818 Tequila brand.”Giving a human a name is incredibly difficult,” Khlóe acknowledged in the scene, restating her earlier declaration.Mason Dash DisickScott Disick and Kourtney Kardashian named their children after things that brought them joy.”M Mason was the only one I liked the moment I first started considering baby names,” Kardashian told Life & Style (via MTV News) in 2010 regarding the nomenclature of her first son. “That was the only one that remained in my mind.” Just prior to his birth, I informed my aunt that we were contemplating selecting that as his name. She informed me that the English word Mason is equivalent to the Armenian word Kardashian, which means “stone worker.”Mason’s middle name has an especially significant significance because it was the moniker of her late father, Robert Kardashian.Penelope Scotland DisickThe significance of Penelope’s name, according to Kris Jenner, was straightforward: her parents, Scott and Kourtney, simply preferred it.Scotland was the middle name that stayed after the family’s name expert, grandmother MJ, suggested it.Kourtney revealed in a 2019 interview with Vogue that she derived the name Poosh from her only daughter, a reference to her lifestyle website.Reign Aston DisickAfter Mason and Penelope, Kourtney and Scott christened their third child with a name that was marginally less conventional. Kardashian revealed to PEOPLE that she had ached to use the name Reign for quite some time; in fact, it was on her shortlist both the initial and subsequent times (though it would have been Rain for a female). “I adore it!” she exclaimed upon meeting her baby son in 2014; prior to that, she was unsure whether the regal name was appropriate.Dream KardashianThe daughter of Rob Kardashian and ex-fiancée Blac Chyna, whom they welcomed in 2016, is in fact a “Dream.” A source told PEOPLE, “Rob and Chyna shared the name Dream for an extended period of time.” “They named her Dream because they’ve always said she’s a dream come true.”
