Ahead of Jenner’s announcement, fans scoured her social media pages for clues about the baby’s name. Since Jenner’s mother Kris Jenner, her sister Kim Kardashian, and her friend Anastasia “Stassie” Karanikolaou all left angel-related comments (from angel emojis to excitement about the “Angel Pie”) on the birth announcement, many onlookers theorized that the baby was named Angel.
Five months after confirming her pregnancy in September 2021, Jenner announced that she’d given birth to Wolf, delivering the news on Instagram in the form of a black-and-white photograph of the newborn’s hand.
The “Keeping Up With the Kardashians” star and the “Sicko Mode” rapper, 30, welcomed their first child together, a now-4-year-old daughter named Stormi Webster, on February 1, 2018.
Jenner shed light on how the couple, who have dated on-and-off since 2017, selected their daughter’s name during a 2018 interview with YouTuber James Charles. She took full responsibility for coming up with Stormi’s unique moniker, despite her boyfriend’s insistence that “he made her name up.”
She recalled browsing lists of “nature names” inspired by the weather and the earth. Though Jenner said she briefly considered Willow, she ruled it out since it was “taken” but her close friend, 21-year-old singer Willow Smith.
“Storm was on there, but I was like, I kind of want an ‘ie’ like me. So then I did ‘Stormie.’ It was always Stormie,” she explained.

However, Jenner “didn’t fully choose her name” after giving birth, she said, reasoning that she should spend a week with the baby in order to be sure the name felt right.
“Stormi always felt like her name from right when she was in the womb. It’s almost like she chose her name” she said.
Jenner did make one spur-of-the-moment change while she was on the phone with the birth certificate office, finalizing the name.
“I was like S-t-o-r-m-i… Literally, right then and there I just changed it to an ‘i,'” she recalled, adding, “I hung up the phone and I was like, ‘Damn, I guess that’s her name!'”
