There’s no doubt Kim Kardashian and Kanye West have chosen unique names for their children, but their decision to name their fourth child Psalm threw Twitter into a joke-filled frenzy.
On Friday, the A-list couple revealed the first photo of their newborn son, while also announcing the little guy’s name.
The news of Kimye choosing Psalm for their child’s name quickly became a trending topic on Twitter as people couldn’t help but poke fun at the unusual moniker and posted hilarious memes, gifs and videos to show their reactions.
“Kanye West is so wild with these baby names,” a person wrote. “Named after one of the most important books in the bible. I cannotttttttt.”
“At least they didn’t name the baby Deuteronomy,” a user added and another person tweeted, “Psalm West sounds like the location of a new desert music festival that costs $1,000 a ticket.”

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West have had a fourth baby named Psalm West but could have named him after these UK parliamentary constituencies. pic.twitter.com/uiOpbYbaf1

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West have named their newborn Psalm West. I have only one question.
Is it a hymn or a her?
— Mr. Drinks On Me (@Mr_DrinksOnMe) May 18, 2019
Kim made the announcement across her social media pages and she posted a screen grab from a text exchange with her husband, which included a photo of the newborn in his bassinet.
“Psalm West” she captioned the picture.
“Beautiful Mother’s Day with the arrival of our fourth child. We are blessed beyond measure. We have everything we need,” read the text message beneath the photo.
The couple’s surrogate gave birth to Psalm on May 9, with Kim confirming the news the next day. “He’s here and he’s perfect,” she wrote on Twitter.
“He’s also Chicago’s twin lol I’m sure he will change a lot but now he looks just like her,” she added.
Psalm joins Chicago, 16 months, Saint, 3, and North, 5.
