Most parents are both scared and excited about welcoming a new child into the world. Deciding what to name your child has also been one of the most important things a parent has to do before they give birth.

In Hollywood, celebrity parents naming their offspring has been something that many have poked fun of.

Now, Kylie Jenner, who has been married to rapper Travis Scott, finally revealed the name of their latest baby, whom she gave birth to last February 2022.

Since then, Kylie Jenner's second son, Stormy's younger brother, has been unknown to many until today.

In an Instagram post, Jenner posted a carousel of photos of herself with her son, named "Aire." Kris Jenner, Kylie's mother, commented in the same post, expressing her love for her grandson.

"I love you Aire Webster," Kris wrote. Because of this, fans have speculated that Kris' comment was a confirmation of Kylie Jenner's youngest son's name.

While the name sounds lovely, like his cousins, many have pointed out the bizarre meaning of the word if translated into another language.

Per Newsweek, "Aire," when translated to Hebrew, meant "lion of God," which exudes strength, honor, and stability.

However, some Kylie Jenner fans mentioned that the word "Aire" has a rather unflattering meaning when translated into Arabic.

"Umm should someone tell Kylie Jenner she renamed her son Aire which is a common Arabic expression for 'my penis' or nah?" Mediaverse Australia Antonette Lattouf said in a post on Twitter.

The tweet has sparked shocked reactions from many on social media, surprised with what seemed to be a great name, holding a seemingly unbecoming title for a cute child like him.

"God help her if she comes to the Middle East," someone said on Instagram.

"That was my first reaction...she named her kid what?!?" another echoed on Twitter.

"She should've just stuck with Wolf. Wasn't that the original name? I'd also like to inform everyone who clinks glasses and says 'chin chin' that it means penis in Japanese," a user suggested.

To be fair, the Kardashian and Jenner household has some unconventional names for their children. Kim and Kanye's children were named North, Chicago, Palm, and Saint. While Khloe's only child was named True, Kourtney's children were named pretty quite conventionally -Penelope, Mason, and Reign.

According to Urban Dictionary, "aire" or "ayre" is Arabic for "best friend" but can also mean penis, depending on its use.
