“We had to sign the birth certificate,” she previously explained on a 2022 episode of the Kardashians. “Or else they’d register him without a name and without a Social Security number, so I felt the pressure to choose the name. Right after I signed the birth certificate I was like, ‘What did I just do?’”
Later, the beauty mogul detailed crying in the shower, and feeling at a loss over what to name her baby—a factor she also attributed to her postpartum depression.
“The advice I would give to you is find your name before your hormones start raging and you have the child,” Kylie advised on the former episode. “It was like, ‘I’m too emotional, he’s so special to me. There’s not a name good enough for him.’”
But the time Kylie took to perfect her son’s name is only one testament to how motherhood is, as she told British Vogue, “everything” to her.
“No matter what I’m going through or what the Internet writes about me that day, I come home and they just love me unconditionally,” she added. “They’re just obsessed with me and that’s taught me to walk through life a little easier.”
Indeed, Aire and Stormi are all she needs. With them, Kylie added, “I don’t really need validation from outside sources.”
