After days of speculation, Kylie Jenner finally revealed her newborn baby's name: Stormi. Like her older sisters, the beauty mogul opted for an unconventional moniker for her child with boyfriend Travis Scott. Stormi is the youngest of her uniquely-named cousins, following Kourtney's children (Penelope, Mason, Reign) and Kim's brood (North, Saint, and Chicago).
The name comes as a surprise to fans who theorized that Jenner and Scott would name their daughter Butterfly or Posie (short for Mariposa) in honor of the recurring symbol in their relationship: the couple got matching butterfly tattoos, Scott has a song called "Butterfly Effect" that's often linked to Jenner, and the rapper got Jenner a butterfly chain necklace for her birthday. Meanwhile, one of Kylie's early lip kits was named Posie K, fueling the speculation for that name.
Others even thought the child's name would start with a C after Khloé Kardashian gifted Kylie with a C-shaped bouquet to celebrate the child's birth. However, all those theories were debunked.
Ultimately, Jenner's name reveal was a surprise in more ways than one, and Twitter had a lot to say about it.
There were a lot of puns about Stormi and her cousins' weather-related names:
Some people offered on-theme baby name suggestions for Khloé, who is also expecting a baby:

Others were disappointed with the name in general:
A few people pointed out a potential problem posed by the current news cycle: what if Stormi gets confused with Stormy Daniels?
The rest of the reactions didn't disappoint:
