Khloe Kardashian has let the cat out of the bag. The reality TV star finally revealed the name of her son, whom she shares with ex Tristan Thompson, in the season 3 premiere of her family’s reality show “The Kardashians”.
In the second half of the episode, which aired on Wednesday, May 24, Khloe was asked by a producer if she’s named her son. The Good American founder later shared, “His name is Tatum. So, Tatum and True.” She added, “Naming a human is really hard.”
The much-awaited revelation arrived after The U.S. Sun revealed that Khloe had named her son Tatum Robert. “There was talk about whether it should be Tatum Robert or should it be Robert Tatum,” a source told the news outlet.
“Some in the family were leaning more towards Robert, because it honors her dad and her brother, [Rob Kardashian],” the source added. “[Kris Jenner] in particular was keen for the baby to be called Robert and was steering Khloe towards that.”
“It took Khloe a little while to settle on the name but ultimately she went with Tatum Robert, which is in keeping with Tristan and True’s names starting with a T,” the unnamed informant further divulged. “Khloe wanted a name that was kind of unusual but not too out there and also keeping with the T theme.”
Prior to that, Khloe teased her little boy’s moniker in the season 2 premiere of “The Kardashians” back in September 2022. “It is going to start with a T,” Khloe said on the Hulu reality TV show. She went on to say, “I mean, that’s really the only names I’ve been looking at.”
Khloe and Tristan welcomed the baby boy via surrogate in the summer of 2022. The “Keeping Up with the Kardashians” alum kept details about her son a secret until she gave a rare glimpse of the infant last December.
