Stormi

We all have to wonder how and why Kylie Jenner decided on the name. 'Stormi', but now the couple have named their newborn son Wolf - however later they changed the name.

Explaining the name of her daughter, Kylie Jenner said, "I really don’t know how we thought of Storm. Her dad (Travis Scott) insisted it was him, but I feel like it was me. And that kind of just stuck with us", "and then I didn’t really like just Storm — I didn’t feel like that was her name so named her Stormi."
