Kylie Jenner reveals how to pronounce her son's new name after finally sharing moniker

Kylie Jenner delighted fans as she shared the first snaps of her baby son and revealed his new name is Aire, but some people were left confused over the pronunciation. Until now.

The 25-year-old Kardashians star took to Instagram to explain how to pronounce her son's unique name after one person asked: "Do you think it's pronounced air or airey?"

Kylie had shared the first snaps of her baby in a social media post and replied in the comment section, writing: "AIR," with a red heart emoji.

The confirmation comes after some fans pointed out Aire has an X-rated meaning in Arabic slang.

While many gushed over the same, some fans jokingly pointed out that 'Aire' translates to "my penis" in Arabic slang.

Journalist Antoinette Lattouf tweeted: "Umm should someone tell Kylie Jenner she renamed her son Aire which is a common Arabic expression for 'my penis' or nah?"

She wasn't the only person to make the connection, with another person writing: "Not Kylie Jenner calling her son Aire??? LOOOOOOOL she can never take him to an Arabic speaking country."

Another added: "As an Arabic speaker, I couldn’t help but giggle at the name of Kylie’s son."

According to Urban Dictionary, the name is "Arabic for best friend", but also "means penis depending on its use".

Some fans pointed out, however, that Aire means lion of God in Hebrew.

Kylie shares Aire with rapper Travis Scott and the pair also have a four-year-old daughter called Stormi.

In the first adorable picture Kylie shared of her son, the mother-of-two cuddled Aire close to her chest, with her son dressed in an adorable shark onesie.

Another pic showed the pair giggling with one another, with Aire dressed in a smart shirt and a pair of jeans.

Kylie's sister Khloe Kardashian was quick to comment on the post, writing: "The king!!! Young king!!!!!"

Her mum Kris Jenner wrote: "I love you Aire Webster," adding a red heart emoji.

Fans also went wild for the post, with one person commenting: "HE IS SO CUTE AIRE AND STORMI!!! icons."

"OH MY GOD HE IS SO BEAUTIFUL," another fan wrote, while a third added: "SLAYYYYYYY we finally know his name and face."

Kylie previously explained that she and Travis were changing the name of their son, who had been named Wolf, after deciding it wasn’t quite sitting with them.
