Khloe Kardashian and Tristan Thompson‘s son’s name has finally been revealed. Kardashian did not reveal her child’s name since he was born, but the child now has an identity to the public. Khloe and Thompson’s son, whose name has been revealed, was born in August 2022 via surrogacy. The former couple also share a daughter, True Thompson, born in April 2018. True is now five years old.
What Is Khloe Kardashian’s Son’s Name?
According to the US Sun, Khloe and Tristan named their son Tatum Robert. A source revealed to the news outlet that there was controversy concerning the baby boy’s name. There was contemplation about the baby being named Tatum Robert or Robert Tatum.
Some family members wanted the baby’s first name to be Robert. This is because it honors the media personality’s dad and her brother, Rob Kardashian. The Keeping Up With the Kardashians star’s father, Robert, died in 2003 from cancer.
A source told the publication that the 38-year-old reality star’s mom, Kris Jenner, very much wanted Khloe to choose the name. However, Khloe did not immediately agree to the suggestion. Not only did the Good American founder want a unique name, but also a name that stuck with the ‘T’ theme.
The Reason Behind Khloe’s Name Choice For Her Children
In a September 2022 episode of The Kardashians, the socialite confirmed that the name of her son was going to start with the letter ‘T.’ Tatum’s big sister, True, was also given a ‘T’ name, so the media personality wanted the same with her son.
Per Page Six, Khloe revealed on social media in May 2018 that when her daughter was born, she wanted her baby to have a ‘T’ initial. So, during a family dinner, her grandmother, MJ, suggested the name True. True was the reality star’s great-grandfather’s first name and her grandfather’s middle name. Khloe noted that the name stuck on her head, and she knew it was the one.
In November 2021, the socialite and the athlete conceived their second baby through a surrogate. However, the following month, Tristan had a paternity suit by Maralee Nichols laid against him. It was devastating for the reality star to discover that her partner cheated. However, the proud mom of two is happy with her children and has decided to focus on them.
