Kylie Jenner reveals Stormi was nearly given a very traditional name

Kylie Jenner has revealed she nearly gave daughter Stormi a very traditional name.

The reality TV star – and world’s youngest self-made billionaire – welcomed her first child with boyfriend Travis Scott in February 2018.

She opened up about the naming process on Instagram, telling fans although Stormi feels right now, she was keen on the name Rose.

“One name I will tell you guys, because I don’t think I’m ever going to name my daughter this, but I wanted to name her Rose,” she said. “I really liked that name. Shout out to everyone named Rose.”

Jenner was quizzed on the name Stormi by her makeup artist, and opened up on how she used to call her daughter Stormi while she was pregnant.

“I feel like she chose her own name,” Jenner said. “I looked up names and I saw Storm and I really liked that but I wanted her to have an ‘ie’ at the end of her name like me. Kylie and Stormi.

“When I was pregnant I used to call her Stormi when I would talk to her in my belly. It just always felt right. I had two names that I liked better than Stormi, but when I had her I felt like she chose her own name and I couldn’t imagine any other name.”

Jenner recently celebrated her daughter’s first birthday with a lavish rainbow-themed party complete with mountains of cupcakes, an indoor funfair and a giant inflatable of Stormi’s face.

Several celebrity friends attended the bash including DJ Khaled who gifted Stormi her very first Chanel handbag.

Jenner this week flaunted her post-pregnancy body, telling fans she is “proud” of her stomach.

Last September, Jenner opened up about how pregnancy had changed her body to Glamour, but admitted that she “didn’t care” because she was “so happy”.
