The Name Translates to “Sacred Song”
After welcoming their fourth child, celebrity couple Kim Kardashian and Jason West have officially announced his name—Psalm West. The joyous news came via a tweet from Kim, who shared, “He’s here and he’s perfect!” Along with the announcement, she posted an image on Instagram featuring a text from Jason that read, “A beautiful Mother’s Day. With the arrival of our fourth child, we are blessed beyond measure. We have everything we need.”
Psalm will join his older siblings: Chicago, aged 15 months, North, five, and Saint, three. According to Kim, the newborn already bears a striking resemblance to one of his sisters. “He’s also Chicago’s twin lol! I’m sure he will change a lot, but for now, he looks just like her,” she noted.
The name has received a mix of reactions from fans. A source close to the family shared with PEOPLE that Kim and Jason had been contemplating the name for some time but wanted to meet their son before making the final decision. “They had a name in mind, but they wanted to see how it fit him first,” the insider explained.
The choice of name seems to reflect Jason’s recent focus on gospel music, as he has been hosting “Sunday Service” gatherings at their Calabasas home. Earlier this year, he even performed at Coachella, blending his music with gospel tunes alongside a live band and choir.
Interestingly, Kim’s surrogate went into labor while her sister, Kourtney, and their mother, Kris, were filming an episode of The Ellen Show with all the kids. Kim was originally meant to attend the taping but, of course, could not be present. Instead, Kourtney revealed the exciting news during the show, leaving Kris visibly shocked. “No! What are we doing sitting here?! Really? Who’s with her? For how long?” exclaimed Kris.
As Psalm joins the family, Kim is also busy pursuing her dream of becoming a lawyer, starting a four-year apprenticeship with a law firm in San Francisco. She aims to take the bar exam in 2022, demonstrating her determination in all her endeavors. Recently, she also played a significant role in securing the release of 17 individuals serving life sentences for minor drug offenses, helping to reunite them with their families.
With plenty of siblings and cousins, Psalm will have a supportive crew to grow up with—Kris has eight other grandchildren! So far, he seems to have a calm demeanor. “I was freaking out for nothing because he is the most calm and chill of all of my babies so far,” Kim shared. “Everyone loves him so much.”
