I’m less concerned with the idea that Kim Kardashian and Kanye West may sell their baby’s photos than I am with the idea that they’ll name this poor child something awful. Historically, Kim and Kanye haven’t done the typical celebrity stuff when it comes to baby photos and all of that. Kim wants her weddings in People Magazine but not her babies. Photos of the babies are saved for social media. Which I believe is the way to do it. If a celebrity wants to sell the photos to a magazine, do it for charity, and in all other cases, just put the photos on social media and be done with it. In any case, TMZ reports that Kim and Kanye have rejected offers of money for Baby Girl West’s first photos.
Kim Kardashian and Kanye West have been offered multi-million dollar deals to provide first photos of their new baby … and they have REJECTED all of them. Sources familiar with the offers tell TMZ, various websites and magazines started making offers months ago. All of the offers were north of a million dollars and several outlets offered between $2 and $5 million.
The offers were never entertained … they were immediately rejected. We’re told Kim and Kanye would never consider taking money for the first photos of the baby … doing so would violate their morals. But there’s more … Kim and Kanye place the security and safety of their family above all else. They realize the media will eventually get pictures of the baby but they want to do it on their own timetable … when they’re comfortable the safety of the baby is secured.
As for what they’ve done in the past … Kim and Kanye posted the first pic of North 2 months after she was born. As for Saint, they also waited 2 months. So check Kim’s Instagram in March.
Again, this doesn’t surprise me. Kim and Yeezy are probably more focused on just bonding with baby and nesting right now. Plus, both Kim and Ye have done a pretty good job of decreasingly their public profiles over the past year and a half. Kanye went low-key to save his marriage and his sanity. Kim went low-key because she’s still traumatized from the Paris robbery. So… yeah, I’m not expecting baby photos any time soon. Why would we need to see the photos anyway? We know Kim and Kanye make beautiful children. Saint and North are gorgeous.
I can’t wait until we hear the name though. I’ve heard the leading suggestions… Wild, South, West (as in, West West), Swift, Queen, whatever. What will it be?

Shouldn’t TMZ have to tell us when they are just re-posting a press release from a publicist? That statement is ridiculous, especially coming from a family with a reality show about their lives and their children’s lives.
That said, my money for the name is on some variation of three. Tres West? Third West? Etc.
Im going with True West
I liked True West from the beginning. Still like it. Major LOL 😃
I love “tres”! As in three but also “very” in French.
Tres West.
I like Tres for that reason too. True West is cool, but it may not go with the crazy story they’ve come up with for North’s name. But West is actually a great last name, it pairs well with tons of stuff.
Sure, if you want to give your kid a stupid joke name like “South West.” How about a rhyming name? “Best West” would be suitable since there’s no way that intelligent people like Kim and Kanye would ever have anything but a kid who is “America’s royalty.”
Some countries have laws about what you can name your kid, though it’s only enforced when you get a white supremacist couple who wants to name their kid Adolf Hitler Johnson.
@dolkite I think even in the US there is a limit on what you can name a child. It’s extremely lenient due to our first amendment, but there’s a point where a court will say “um nope” to an outrageous name.
It’s also enforced by religious fanatic judges. A female judge forbid a couple from naming their child Messiah, as there’s only one Messiah – our Lord and Savior.
Face
Love it.
Riiiight. This clan is so overexposed that the more likely scenario is nobody wanted to pay what they were asking.
But they have to throw in the ‘we’ve got morals’ line to make sure everybody knows it was their idea. I really laughed when I read that line. Moral-less liars lie about having morals. Hey, maybe they should call her Morals.
Exactly, plus they do not need any money so it’s not worth it to them I guess. They would rather put out the “we have morals” story line because it better in the long run.
They didn’t sell North or Saint’s pics so why is anyone surprised they wouldn’t sell the new baby’s pics? I am all for criticizing them in all aspects of their lives as long as it’s realistic/accurate. They seem like decent parents and BOTH of their other babies were “hidden” for months and only debuted – for no paycheck- on their own social media.
Well actually north was reveal on kris jenner’s short lived show. they do everything for the benefit of themselves
These children are REGULARLY exploited by paps and on social media which they design for DM and other tabloids to run EVERYDAY. Their morals are to lie and deflect about everything in sneaky underhanded ways like snakes. #SnakeMorals
Yea I don’t know who is buying this crap
Exactly!! Anything their “sources” (Krusty Kris) say, the exact opposite is true which means ZERO offers
That’s exactly what happened with their other two but to make it look good, they twisted it to make it seem like money was offered and they turned it down… as if they would ever say no to publicity & money.
Exactly. And I seriously believe PimpMamaK sees this infant as a new pony in her high value Derby daughter stable.
Kanye was seen heading in to the studio just yesterday so he’s not home “nesting” with baby. I love how TMZ said they don’t want to sell pics of the baby because of their “morals” lol. That’s funny considering Kim and her family sell their whole lives on their reality show. Is she saying Kourtney is “immoral” for allowing the birth of her children to be filmed for their show? I don’t get this family one bit. Either way, yes the child will be beautiful and the name will be interesting…that we know for sure.
Mark my words, the baby’s name will be True. True West.
They’ve had so much time to think about the name…they are just holding out because they know people are interested and it’s getting them attention they haven’t had in a while…especially Kim. She posted a nude pic a week ago and it barely got any news. The name will probably be something with a religious theme since they have such high morals lol. I don’t get it though. If you’re going to show the baby’s pic at some point anyways, why not sell it to a mag and donate the 5 mill to charity? This child will be on their reality show anyways, just like all the other kids. Plus Kim has sold her naked body pics and video for money…so the whole moral thing just ain’t believable.
My guess is no one offered them anywhere near 5 mil.
Suuure.
Sure West. I like it.
They’ve never sold the pics of the babies.
Load of BS, this is their third child, magazines are not offering millions for baby pictures any more.
This is straight from a publicist playbook.
Now if it was Kylie’s (if she is pregnant) chances are, she would get a good offer but not in the millions.
It was never about the magazine offer, it was about the timing that is more beneficial to the family. Saint’s debut….was on Kris’ talk show. So the next being promotion boost is when we are going to get a current photo of the latest cutie patootie.
Which is super impressive (not taking the magazine $) seeing as how they are so strapped for cash.
Omg, True fits! I was trying to figure out how they would top North. They said the North Star always leads you home(or something like that)! Saint speaks for itself. True is perfect following their theme. Queen is to blah. They wouldn’t use another direction. Hmm, or another name meaning top, number one, best, peek?!
I highly doubt they’d go with Queen since Tygas kid is King
All of this is moot when you consider that not only is it posted on social media, but Kim derives significant income from her social media (which helps drive her TV show as well). So they’re getting paid for the pics, just in a different way.
She. She West.
They made a big deal about this being grandchild number 7…
so maybe Sept West (seven in French)
or Siete West (seven in Spanish)
PMK made a big deal about buying nine pairs of pj’s at Christmas for her grandchildren.
Kim’s is number seven, Kylie’s is number eight, and Khloe’s is number nine.
I’m kind of wishfully hoping she gives the girl an Armenian name. Anayis, Rubina, Kami, Kayane, Lusine, Nyri….I Think they have such pretty names 🙂
Those are all great names !
Beautiful names.
My sisters name is Anais i didn’t know there was an armenian variation. Beautiful!
Didn’t they say they were sticking to the whole five letter thing for their kids names?
What a weird photo to caption with “mom of three”
If it’s gonna be 5 letters and monosyllabic my suggestions are:
Jayde
Kayde
Reign
Queen
Starr
Faith
Kayne (anagram of Kanye)
Kayle
Keene (tribute to Kate Middleton)
Voting out Reign (Kourtneys kid) and Queen (Tyga’s son is King)
“Keene (tribute to Kate Middleton). Alexandria, thanks. My winner today. Hahahahaha!
I have to say, I appreciate the Kardashian baby gossip these days. It’s really hard that all celebrity stories have become so fraught politically, morally, etc. I completely understand why these conversations need to happen, I agree that they do, I don’t want to silence anyone. But a bit of celebrity escapism is nice for the brain and soul.
Doing so would violate their morals
LMFAO!!!!!!!!!
I’m thinking Forever West! Although True West also could be a contender!
Hahaha morals!!!! Sex tapes, drugs, exploitation, fame whores who claim they have morals! Needed a good laugh
Seven West!!!!
Duchess West
Go West. Then Go ‘Way.
How about Snake West?
Yep—I’m feeling “True”
Final West
If need five letters.
Otherwise:
Last West
Those Armenian names are beautiful. I thought the same thing, perhaps his mothers name as a middle name too.
I think she will be 7 West.
I don’t think Kanye’s ego would allow the kid to be named based on being the 7th of someone else’s grandkids.
Reputation West!!!
Trinity West? She’s the third and they love the whole ‘higher power/religious’ name thing (North and Saint). I know it’s not monosyllabic but y’know. Three West? Third West?
