Newborn Baby West's name was just revealed, and the internets are having a FIELD DAY. All the deets inside...
Just days after announcing her birth via surrogacy, Kanye & Kim KardashianWest have revealed her name. Introducing: Chicago West!
Well, that's new.

North, Saint & Chi

Their oldest daughter North was named for the highest star in the universe and baby boy Saint was named for, well, it's self-explanatory.
It's unclear how The Wests decided on Chicago. We're not sure if they just watched Poetic Justice and got inspired (Thanks Joe Torry!), or if they want to redefine the stereotypical negativity attached to Kanye's native city these days with a super cute, super innocent little baby carrying the same name. We wouldn't be surprised if 'Ye wanted his baby to have the name of what he feels is the best city on earth.
What we can say is this may have been one of the blackest moves 'Ye has made in a while. So, salute.
And for those of you who've been under a rock and never heard anyone refer to Chicago as "The Chi" (and never heard of the new Showtime series of the same name), leave it to Khloe K. to explain the pronunciation:
I LOOOOOOOOOOVE her name hey Chi (shy) https://t.co/Ikd0ay3DsO

Naturally, the internets are on one:
"Who's ever going to hire somebody named Chicago?" You think an offspring of Kim Kardashian and Kanye West is filling out applications???
LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Chicago West sounds like a hospital.

chicago west sounds like a nbc show that's a ripoff of law & order svu that debuted in the fall of 2007 that came on from 9:30 pm est. that only lasted one season because of bad ratings that returned in 2009 only to be cancelled again the following year

And there's this shade:
The naming of Chicago West comes two months after Kanye was here for the Kid Cudi show @AragonBallroom. Kim, on the other hand, canceled her last two scheduled visits to the city: https://t.co/jg2DR6jxna

Oop.
Well, if folks can name their kids Savannah, Jackson, Paris, Dallas, India, Alaska, London and countires/contininets like Asia, China, Malaysia and America, so be it.
