Sweet Baby Yeezus, Kanye & Kim Named Their Daughter…North West?? Posted by Lucas Garrison on 06/21/13 | Filed under Humor, Kanye West, Fails

(Bonus photobomb points to that kid on the left.)

So on Tuesday, it was rumored that Kanye and Kim’s baby would be named Kaidence Donda West. Aside from the whole first name “K” thing, I was actually pretty impressed. My money was on Yeezus Prada Moonbow Westdashian, but Kanye surprised me with a relatively normal name and he even fit in a tribute to his late mother. Well, yesterday it was announced that rosemary’s baby would actually be named…North West.



Just when you think fatherhood might have humbled Kanye, bringing him back from whatever planet he is on, he goes and does this. I actually don’t mind the name North, but when your last name is West, I simple don’t get why you would do this. It’s like a bad joke, which might be funny for a minute, but then the novelty wears off, except she has to live with it her whole life.

Also any hopes that this baby will be normal have been squashed; with parents like Kanye and Kim and a name like North West, it wont be long she has a reality show and a line of toddler purses or something. I have to say it makes this funny comparison piece from Entertainment Weekly even more perfect than it already is. Fans of Arrested Development will have a fun time with this. Popwatch is playing “who said it” with quotes from Kanye and Lucille Bluth, one of the more over the top characters on an already absurd show. Getting compared an eccentric old woman is never a good luck, but some of these quotes are too perfect. A few even fooled me like “You love me when I’m hungover” and “That coat cost more than your house!”.

1. “They ordered champagne, but still look thirsty.”
2. “I’ll be out on parole by the time you work up a tear.”
3. “That coat cost more than your house!”
4. “You remember where we first met? Okay, I don’t remember where we first met.”
5. “Everybody wants to live at the top of the mountain.”
6. “If I don’t get run out by Catholics, here come some conservative Baptists.”
7. “Where’s my maid? ROBOT!”
8. “You love me when I’m hungover.”
9. “Who let that black [bleep] in?”
10. “A sea of waiters, and no one will take a drink order.”
11. “Go and grab the reporters so I can smash their recorders.”
12. “I’d rather be dead in California than alive in Arizona.”
13. “$2000 bag with no cash in your purse.”
14. “WHORE!”

So in context, maybe Ye naming his daughter North West makes perfect sense. After all, this is the man who just told us to hurry up with his damn croissants. I never thought I'd see the day when "Blue Ivy" sounded like a normal name, but here it is.

Good luck North West, against all odds we're pulling for you to not grow up to be completely insane.

Nathan Update:

Crazy names are rich people's way of reminding us their children will never have to get a normal job.
