Even though your birth name sounds like a big deal, what you're given on your first days of life is not set in stone. Travis Scott & Kylie Jenner decided to legally change their son Wolf's name to Aire. Moreover, court documents obtained by TMZ indicate that the couple filed to change their child's name in legal paperwork. Also, they clarified that both parents are in agreement with the switch, and that both signed off on documents now up for court examination. While authorities have yet to sign off, it's hard to think of a reason not to allow such a process.

Furthermore, the docs read that Travis and Kylie "regret the initial name choice of Wolf Jacques Webster. Now that Petitioners have had the chance to spend time with their baby, they believe the name Aire Webster is a better fit." Of course, readers may remember this decision's reveal as early as March of 2022. Even though Aire was just a few weeks old, they felt the name "Wolf" didn't suit him and had a change of heart.

Kylie Jenner & Travis Scott Legally Change Son's Name From Wolf To Aire

In January of 2023, the social media and lifestyle mogul revealed his new name to the world. In fact, it was just a few weeks before Aire celebrated his very first birthday, not without some controversy. Moreover, the name is of Hebrew origin and reportedly means "Lion of God." Not only that, but the change actually fits the "aesthetic" of the family, if that's even a valid consideration. After all, his sister's name is Stormi, and his father's Nike collaborations also kind of inform this more fitting name.

Unfortunately, it looks like this process won't change the couple's currently split status. For example, an OK! report cited sources allegedly close to the two. "[Kylie] has no idea what the future holds," the insider reportedly stated. "But right now she doesn’t see any type of a reconciliation. At the end of the day, the only thing that matters to Kylie is what’s best for her kids, period. She knows Travis is an amazing father and that’s the only thing that she cares about."
