Kanye West And Kim Kardashian Go Biblical For Newest Baby's Name
Kim Kardashian and Kanye West were apparently biblically inspired when it was time to name their fourth child.
The couple’s newest child was born May 10 via a surrogate, but they waited a week before announcing on Twitter that their baby boy’s name was “Psalm.”

If you’re not up on theology, a psalm is a sacred song or hymn and is also the title of a book in the Bible.
As you might expect, the new name inspired strong reactions from Twitter users. Some loved it ...
I bet people pronounce it “Palm” 🙄

A very unique and gorgoeus name. And thats the best chapter of the bible as well

OMGGG I guessed his name was going to be Hymn West because music and Sunday Service is so important to your family, Psalm & Hymn are so closely related!!

Others weren’t so sure ...
