Kim Kardashian and Kanye West battle over daughters name
Kim Kardashian and Kanye West are at loggerheads over what to call their newborn daughter.
While Kanye is said to love the idea of naming her ‘North’, but Kim is not a fan, especially since the child will be taking her father Kanye’s surname and would become ‘North West’.
Kim reportedly prefers the name Kaidence, which would follow her family’s ‘K’ theme.
The reality star is said to like the idea of calling the baby Kai for short. The middle name would be Donda, in honour of Kanye’s late mother.
According to InTouch: “North is at the top of the list of names.”
A friend of the pair told the gossip magazine: “They’re not totally sure about it. Kanye loves it, Kim is okay with it.”
“The family doesn’t like it [North],” the insider told InTouch, adding, “They’re going to decide by today [Tuesday].”
Kim’s close friend Larsa Pippen revealed that she had been to visit the baby in the hospital and a decision was nearly made but she said Kim didn’t welcome her suggestions.
“We kind of went back and forth and the name that I wanted, [Kim] didn’t love,” she said.
Kanye has not spoken publicly following his daughter’s arrival, but he did take to Twitter on Tuesday morning – to promote his new album Yeezus as it was released.
“Yeezus album now available,” he tweeted.
