Kylie Jenner changes baby name

Kylie Jenner has gone back to the Instagram post where she unveiled her daughter's name and made a small but significant change.

After much speculation about her baby's surname, the 20-year-old new mum clarified that her daughter Stormi will be taking her dad Travis Scott's surname - but that doesn't mean she'll be known as 'Stormi Scott'.

'Travis Scott' is the rapper's stage name, and his real moniker is actually 'Jacques Webster', so Kylie has changed the post to now read; 'Stormi Webster'.

The addition comes after many of her fans had been assuming that the baby would be a 'Jenner', but it appears the couple will follow the tradition when children take after their fathers.

Kylie and Travis' decision hasn't been without it's fair share of surprise from fans, who were quick to take to Twitter with their reactions to the news.



One person noted that 'Stormi Webster' sounds very similar to 'Stormy Weather'. Is that she reason she decided to go with Webster?
