The 25-year-old revealed her son's name just a few weeks prior to his first birthday. He will be turning 1 year old on February 2, just a day ahead of his elder sister, Stormi's fifth birthday


What does Kylie Jenner’s son’s name mean?

The name has different meanings in various languages. However, it is also the name of a British river. “Aire” is a river in Northern England that begins in the Pennines region and flows towards the southeast. The water body then rushes towards the Ouse.

The French meaning of “Aire,” simply means the area on a surface.

Shockingly, the name also has an explicit meaning in Arabic, which left netizens bewildered. Since the name drop, internet users revealed that it translates to “my d*ck” in Arabic. Twitter users were sent into a frenzy after the revelation. A few reactions read:

Although there are different meanings to the name, it seems like Kylie Jenner and the father of her children, Travis Scott, wanted to name their children after the weather. Given that their first child is named Stormi could be the reason why they decided to name their second child, Aire.


Why did Kylie Jenner and Travis Scott change the name of their son?

For those unversed, the parents initially named their son Wolf Webster and the same was put down on his birth certificate as well. However, during a The Kardashians episode, the Kylie Cosmetics founder revealed that Khloe Kardashian was the person who first suggested calling her newborn Wolf.

Kylie Jenner went on to add:

“We really didn’t have a name. I just thought it was gonna just come to us when we saw him and it didn’t. So, we just put Wolf Websiter in that moment. Right after I signed the birth certificate, I was like, “what did I just do?””

The mother-of-two revealed in March 2022 that she and Scott had decided to change Wolf’s name because it did not suit him. She revealed on Instagram:

“FYI our sons 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.”

It seems like netizens and other celebrities are enjoying the new name Aire. Hailey Bieber, Harry Hudson and SZA were just a few among the many stars who expressed adoration towards the latest announcement.
