Khloé Kardashian recently revealed her newborn daughter’s name as True Thompson, and it turns out there’s actually a beautiful meaning behind the seemingly out of the box choice.
Taking to Instagram, Kris Jenner — the reality tv star’s mum — explained that the unusual moniker is a family name for the Kardashian-Jenners.
“I’m so excited to welcome my precious little granddaughter True!!! FUN FACT … my Grandfather’s name on my Dad’s side was True Otis Houghton ….my Dad’s name was Robert True Houghton … so i am so excited Khloe named her daughter True!!!” the proud grandmother wrote, alongside an image showing a ceiling filled with pink balloons.
In an interview with Ellen DeGeneres earlier in the year, Khloé said that if her baby was a boy, she would have name him Tristan Jr. after his dad. But she said she was stuck on what to name a baby girl.
“Then for a girl, I don’t know where to begin,” she told the talk show host, adding that she’d want the little one’s name to begin with a K or a T.
It seems the family tree proved to be the best inspiration!
Khloe, 33, reportedly gave birth at a hospital just outside of Cleveland on Thursday, April 12. She was joined by her mum Kris, sisters Kourtney and Kim and close friend Malika. Tristan is also believed to have been by her side.
True arrived weighing 6 lbs., 13 oz., measuring 21 inches in length.
The birth came just days after the Daily Mail published photos and videos of the basketball player, 27, getting rather intimate with fan.
It’s understood the visuals were captured at a New York City club on Saturday, April 7.
According to multiple outlets, Khloe began experiencing early contractions directly as a result from watching the shocking footage.
A source told E!, “She’s distraught.”
Khloe and Tristan began dating around the autumn of 2016, while his ex Jordan Craig was pregnant with his first child.
“Her entire world has been turned upside down. She cried hysterically all night.”
Adding, “She begged to come back to L.A. and tried to find any way to make it work but her doctor wouldn’t let her. She just wants to be with her family and leave as soon as possible. Kris is there and completely supporting her.”
“She will obviously never be able to trust Tristan again or look at him the same way,” the source said.
“Her world is shattered. She is in complete disbelief that this is happening. The family absolutely believes it’s in Khloe’s best interest to end the relationship but will support her either way.”

Despite the allegations of infidelity, an insider says the new mum is likely to stay with Tristan.
“She’s a hopeless romantic and she’ll try to make this work. She tried forever to make it work with Lamar [Odom]. She’s having a child with Tristan, and she’s going to try to rebuild this,” one pal told People.
The pal continued, “Khloe could probably convince herself to get over the fact that he maybe, kind of, sort of, hooked up with some groupie while out on the road.”
“But being so indiscreet about it and letting it get splashed all over the place and having it humiliate her? That’s actually even worse.”
At this point, neither party has commented on the scandal.
