One of the most popular and favoured Kardashian sisters is no doubt, Khloé Kardashian, but after the new mother gave birth to a baby girl on April 12th, after a week-long exposé that saw several major outlets sharing videos and photos of her boyfriend, Tristan Thompson, cheating with multiple women, Khloe quickly came under fire for not only seemingly sweeping the news under the rug, but also for her unique (and fitting!) baby name choice.
“Picking a name for your child is really so tough!” the 33-year-old new mom wrote on her personal site. “I knew I wanted my baby to have a ‘T’ initial, so one night while we were all at dinner, thinking of some names, my grandma MJ suggested True.”
“She told me it was my great-grandfather’s first name and my grandfather’s middle name,” Khloé continued, explaining the significance of “True.” “It stuck with me for my entire pregnancy and was the only one I couldn’t get out of my head.”
Despite already having built a brand new home for her daughter, True, in Cleveland (where Khloé gave birth), and where her boyfriend and father of True, the famous basketball player Tristan Thompson is stationed as he plays for for the Cavaliers, the new mom stated that she looks forward to introducing True to her great-grandma, saying “I can’t wait to get back to LA so True can finally meet MJ in person,” on a post on her website.
According to statements, True had already been picked as the newborns name for a while, however friends and family still thought Khloe would end up changing the name and were as a result, waiting for the birth to send her gifts. Khloe also organised for everything bought prior to the birth to already be monogrammed with “True.”
Given the awkward circumstances under which Khloe gave birth to her daughter, it seems ironic to fans that she has chosen to name her ‘True Thompson.’
Much like any other Kardashian-Jenner baby name, her choice has sparked quite the stir online – specifically on Twitter. Following on from the arrival of her cousins Chicago West and Stormi Webster, the newborn True Thompson had caused a Twitter meltdown as people, both fans of the Kardashians and otherwise come to terms with the unique choice.
Here are the best Twitter reactions that we found to the baby name reveal:

It’s appropriate that Tristan Thompson’s kids name is True, bc that man could use some honesty in his life. #TrueThompson
