Kylie Jenner mum shamed over baby son’s name as fans claim it has ‘a very rude meaning’
KYLIE Jenner has revealed her son’s new name – 11 months after he was born.
The tot, who was originally named Wolf by the American multi-millionaire reality star and rapper Travis Scott, is now officially called Aire.
Kylie, 25, announced his name on Instagram but was inundated with comments from her followers – some who claimed his moniker had a rather rude meaning.
One of her 378million Instagram followers wrote next to her announcement: “I wish you did research beforehand. In some Arab countries, his name means penis.”
They weren’t the only people to notice, with another writing: “God help her if she comes to the Middle East.”
Twitter was also awash with comments over some translations of his name, with another fan of Kylie’s tweeting: “Aire in Arabic is pronounced as ayre aka d**k…poor Kylie.”

A source close to the family said the meaning of the name was “Lion of God”.
Kylie and Travis, 31, already have a four-year-old daughter called Stormi.
The reality star, who found fame in Keeping Up With The Kardashians, and her famous siblings have previously been criticised for their choice of baby names.
Khloe Kardashian, 38, welcomed her daughter, True, in 2018, while Robert Kardashian had baby girl Dream in 2016.
