South? Wild? What Kim and Kanye should call kid two, according to Twitter

The moment has come: Kim Kardashian and Kanye West are expecting their second child, and in this moment I swear we are infinite.

The revelation was announced at the end of the Keeping Up With the Kardashians’ midseason finale, in which Kim is seen telling Khloe, “I just got the blood tests back, and I’m pregnant!” as part of a teaser clip. (Just in case you thought Sunday night TV had lost its sheen. And if you did, how dare you.)

Understandably, Kardashian matriarch Kris Jenner is over the moon, having taken to Instagram to congratulate her daughter and son-in-law with not nearly enough exclamation marks.

“Congratulations!!!!!!!!! Can’t wait to meet your new little love bug!!!!! So happy for you guys!!!!!!!!!” she commented.

But frankly, that’s exactly the right amount of enthusiasm we should all have for North West’s little sibling – especially since Nori has proven to be the change we wish to see in the world. (Those facial expressions! So honest! Such frustration!) Which of course, raises the question: what will be the second Kardashian-West child’s name be?

If a boy, Adam. Clearly. But these decisions can’t all be left up to me. That’s why Twitter stepped up to give the baby name game (and all other new baby sentiments) its all:

So yes, we get it: South West would be a very Original and Interesting™ choice. But regardless of your feelings about Kim, Kanye, reality television, or North West’s wardrobe (which is better than ours combined, let’s be serious), you’ve got to hand it to the Kardashian-West clan: for as much as we claim not to care about what they say or do, we’re such talking a lot about their second child.

Who, for the record, will be named after me.
