In April, the former E! star admitted she decided to give her son a name beginning with T, like her firstborn daughter True.
The mom of two kept herself tight-lipped about announcing the kid’s full name to the public.
An insider close to the TV star told The U.S. Sun that Khloe resisted nudges from her family, especially her 67-year-old mother.
Kris reportedly wanted the first name of Robert for the infant as a tribute to her late husband, Robert Kardashian, who is also Khloe's father.
Instead, the source claimed Khloe reportedly decided to use Robert as the boy’s second name in honor of her lawyer dad, who died almost 20 years ago in September 2003.
SETTLING ON THE NAME
The insider said: “There was talk about whether it should be Tatum Robert or should it be Robert Tatum.
“Some in the family were leaning more towards Robert because it honors her dad and her brother."
The source continued: “Kris in particular was keen for the baby to be called Robert and was steering Khloe towards that.

The insider concluded: “Khloe wanted a name that was kind of unusual but not too out there and also keeping with the T theme.”
