Kylie Jenner has revealed she called her son Aire a completely different name for an entire whole year.

The 27-year-old, who is the youngest of the famous Kardashian-Jenner family, has been enjoying motherhood since she welcomed her first daughter, Stormi Webster, to the world in February 2018 with Travis Scott who was her boyfriend at the time.

A few years later, in February 2022, Kylie welcomed her second child - a lovely baby boy.

However, there was a whole fiasco when it came to the naming process of the tot.

Previously speaking on The Kardashians, the Kylie Cosmetics founder revealed she was rushed to land on a moniker - impulsively calling the newborn Wolf.

"We had to sign the birth certificate - or else they register him without a name or Social Security number — so, I felt the pressure to choose a name," she said, revealing it was her older sister, Khloé, who'd made the suggestion of Wolf.

"We put Wolf Webster in that moment, and right after I signed the birth certificate, I was like, 'What did I just do?'

"That night, I cried in the shower, I was like, 'That’s not his name. What did I just do? Wolf?! Someone just told me this 24 hours ago, I just named my son Wolf!'

"It wasn’t even on the list!"

A month after her son's birth, Kylie posted an Instagram story sharing with fans: "FYI our son's name isn't Wolf anymore. We just really didn't feel like it was him. Just wanted to share because I keep seeing Wolf everywhere."

She then kept the new name a secret for almost a year before revealing his new name as Aire, announcing the news to the world by posting an adorable snap on Instagram in January last year.

And it seems like Wolf wasn't the only name in the mix as little Aire was also once called Knight.

It took the mum-of-two a whole year to settle on Aire as she revealed in her latest interview with Vogue: "My son’s name was actually Knight for a long time and my daughter, still to this day, is like, 'Do you remember when Aire’s name was Knight?'

"And I’m like, 'No', And she’s like, 'That was so funny, mum. I like Knight better', and I’m like, 'You know what, we are not doing this again'."

Elsewhere in the interview, Kylie gushed that motherhood is 'everything to her', continuing: "Stormi wasn’t planned. It happened, but obviously I knew that I wanted to have her. I wanted children so bad.

"No matter what I’m going through or what I look like or what the internet writes about me that day, I come home and my kids just love me unconditionally."

She added: "They’re just obsessed with me and that’s taught me to walk through life a little easier.

"I’m like, 'OK, well I have these little humans at home that need me and love me and think I’m the most perfect person in the world, so I don’t really need validation from outside sources'."
