Kim Kardashian and Kanye
West's bizarre baby name instantly became the subject of jokes around the globe
after it was revealed on Thursday.
And it seems even the
reality TV star, 32, found the name North West rather humorous when it was
first raised in public during an interview with Jay Leno back in March.Three
months before giving birth, Kim laughed at Leno when he brought up rumours
Kanye wanted to name the baby North - 'so he [or she] would be North West.' Without
batting an eyelash, a giggling Kim immediately dismissed the idea and the
audience guffawed along with her. 'That is not one of the names on our
list,' she insisted, before adding: 'But that I do like Easton West.' 'It
kind of goes with North. I think that's cute,' she said with a smile.
Despite her chuckles, North
West turned out to be no joke - MailOnline obtained a copy of the birth
certificate on Friday, confirming that the couple have settled on the moniker -
and no middle name.There was widespread speculation that Kim would follow her
family's 'K' tradition but even back in March she admitted that her baby name
list was varied. 'Some of them are K names and some of them are not,' she
said.
News of the baby's name
comes five days after Kim was rushed to a hospital in Los Angeles on June 15,
giving birth to her daughter after going into labour five weeks before her due
date. One week later, the pair checked out of the hospital following the
premature birth. And a source told UsWeekly that the
couple have already given their daughter a nickname - she will be 'Nori for
short'.
