Twitter reacts: The internet tries to name Kanye and Kim’s son

But which direction will they actually go?

Posted by

So the prodigal son, the second child of Kanye West and Kim Kardashian, was born over the weekend and expectedly, this kid is already the talk of the town. He’s only a few days old, and by all accounts still without a confirmed name, and the internet is already making him the subject of much debate and a few jokes as well. As was the case with his older sister, the new Baby West has got people’s curiosity piqued, with Twitter users taking it upon themselves to suggest names for Ye Jr. Reports have been circulating that the couple are set to name their child Easton—presumably after Kanye’s love of the author and a handy play on yet another direction—while many mistook the name of an English storm ‘Storm Desmond’ as the chosen one, after it started trending on the social media platform. It’ll only be a matter of days before the actual name is revealed, surely, so we’re pretty cool to chill on it until we see it crop up on Kim’s Twitter… or Travi$ Scott’s Instagram. In the meantime, check out some of the inventive (and many not so creative) suggestions made by Twitter in the gallery above.
