Apparently Kim has laughed off the suggestion that they named their baby North West. So it was probably just a joke. I'd heard that the name might be Kaidence Donda West (not sure of the spelling except the 'K' bit).
You might be referring to when a still pregnant Kim laughed during a segment with Jay Leno as he suggested a series of names. Her mom was on the View today actually, discussing the chosen name North.
Oh geezuz!! The name is REAL??? :smt119 Well, then I feel desperatly sorry for that child. She is going to have the piss taken outta her until she's old and grey. :smt009
Rocker Frank Zappa named his daughter Moon Unit and son Dweezil. Gwyneth Paltrow named her daughter Apple. Bruce Willis' two daughters are named Rumer and Scout. I met a guy who worked in a store who was named Imhotep(The Mummy). Parents believe that their children are unique. So, you give them a unique name. It might seem a little unusual, but it is a celebration of that child's uniqueness. That is not to say that all children that are born and given common names are not unique. Men are sometimes given feminine names like Lynn or Vivian.
