Khloé Kardashian is 'taking her time' naming her new son

Khloé Kardashian is ‘taking her time’ before naming her newborn son as she wants to ensure she gets 'it right’. 

The 38-year-old welcomed a son with her ex-partner Tristan Thompson, 31, via a surrogate. The former couple are also parents to four-year-old True Thompson. 

The pair announced they were using a surrogate to have another child in July. The baby was conceived shortly before it revealed Thompson had fathered a baby with another woman and the couple split up. 

Confirming the news, a statement from Khloé's representative read: "We can confirm True will have a sibling.

"Khloe is incredibly grateful to the extraordinary surrogate for such a beautiful blessing. We'd like to ask for kindness and privacy so that Khloé can focus on her family."

Now the baby is here, a source close to Khloé has now said she’s in no rush to name the baby and won’t announce until the time is right. 

Speaking to PEOPLE, the source said: "Khloé is on cloud nine. Getting a sibling for True has been such a journey. She is very excited to be a mom again. She really wanted a baby boy."

"Khloé hasn't shared a name yet. She is taking her time with the name. She wants it to be just right."

Her decision to not rush into naming the newborn comes after sister Kylie Jenner announced she was changing the name of her young son earlier this year. 

Kylie welcomed a boy with partner Travis Scott in February and initially revealed he was called Wolf. 

However, in a post on Instagram a shot while later she explained: "FYI our [son's] name isn't Wolf anymore. We just didn't feel like it was him. Just wanted to share because I keep seeing Wolf everywhere."

In a new interview with USA Today, Jenner admitted she knew she was going to change his name as soon as they signed his birth certificate, and that she's in the 'process' of deciding on a new name.

She said: "We had to quickly sign the birth certificate, and then I knew the second I signed the birth certificate that I was probably gonna change his name.

"It just didn't suit him. We haven't legally changed his name yet. We're in the process, so it just wouldn't feel right to share anything when we don't have an official name."

She explained to Entertainment Tonight that Wolf was never a real option, but Khloé had suggested it.

Jenner said: "Before I officially change it, I want to make sure... Wolf was never on our list. It just was something Khloé suggested. I liked the name. There’s nothing against Wolf, it just wasn’t him."
