Kim Kardashian and Kanye West name baby daughter ‘North West’

GlobalPost

Despite rumors that Kim Kardashian and Kanye West would stick with the 'K' theme and name their new daughter Kaidence or Klementine, they've gone in a different direction.

North, to be exact.

TMZ is reporting that the name on the birth certificate is "North West."

People magazine confirmed the news with a source close to the Kardashian family.

And a source told UsWeekly that the couple have already given their daughter a nickname — "Nori," for short.

Reality star Kardashian, 32, gave birth to North West on June 15 in the $3,320-a-night maternity suite at the Cedars Sinai hospital in Los Angeles.
