After nine long months, Khloé Kardashian has decided that the wait is over, and she revealed the name of her baby boy, whom she shares with her former serial cheater of a boyfriend, Tristan Thompson.
The former couple picked the creative and original name Tatum Robert. The Kardashians talent and the basketball star also share a 5-year daughter, True.
For the past months, Khloé Kardashian has shared multiple photos of her son while keeping his name a secret from the world. It is the latest celebrity trend, and Kylie Jenner revealed the name of her son, Aire Webster, when he was a year old.
Rihanna‘s first child is nearly one, and his name has yet to be revealed. Nicki Minaj‘s only son is almost three, and no one knows his name other than the nickname Papa Bear.
A source close to the Kardashian/Jenner clan spoke to The Sun and revealed that the mom of two had a hard time picking the order of the names.
Khloé Kardashian’s family urged her to go with Robert as a tribute to her brother, Rob Kardashian, and late father, Robert Kardashian.
The insider said: “There was talk about whether it should be Tatum Robert or should it be Robert Tatum. Some in the family were leaning more towards Robert because it honors her dad and her brother.”
Kris Jenner pushed her daughter to go with Robert, but she opted to keep the T tradition going.
The source claimed: “Kris, in particular, was keen for the baby to be called Robert and was steering Khloe towards that. It took Khloe a little while to settle on the name, but ultimately, she went with Tatum Robert, which is in keeping with Tristan and True’s names starting with a T. Khloe wanted a name that was kind of unusual but not too out there and also keeping with the T theme.”
In a recent interview, Kardashian confirmed that her son’s name started with a T and explained why she kept it private for so long.
The Good American clothing brand founder said: “He was delivered via surrogate or the stork, I like to say, and at first, I did not know what I was going to name him. I wanted to meet him and feel him out a little bit, and so at first, he didn’t have a name.”
Tristan Thompson has a love child named Theo with his former mistress, Maralee Nichols.
Nichols claimed that the athlete has refused to spend time with their child.
