Kim Kardashian and Kanye West have named their baby daughter
North West.Sources close to the couple confirmed the decision, which comes five
days after Kim welcomed her first child at a hospital in Los Angeles. The
revelation ends the intense speculation over the child's name, with other
rumoured options said to include Kaidence Donda, in honour of Kanye's late
mother.
And a source told UsWeekly that
the couple have already given their daughter a nickname - she will be 'Nori for
short'. They added that the child has no middle name.
TMZ witnessed
a signed birth certificate with the name North West signed by Kim, 32, and
Kanye, 36, at Cedars-Sinai hospital. People magazine
confirmed the news with a source close to the Kardashian family.
The name North had previously been suggested as a
possibility for the child, although many Kardashian fans had dismissed the idea
as a joke.
And the revelation
certainly proved fruitful amongst Twitter users, as North West began trending within
minutes.
It also sparked a slew of jokes from would-be comedians
amused by the choice. Back in March, Kim denied rumours that Kanye wanted to
name the baby North.
‘I do like Easton, Easton West,’ she joked on The
Tonight Show with Jay Leno at the time. Indeed prior to the baby's birth
on Saturday it had been expected that the pair would continue the 'K' theme
that runs in Kim's family - which is something that Kim has spoken about in the
past.
