Kylie Jenner and Travis Scott file to legally change son's name
The baby formerly known as Wolf Jacques Webster will soon get a brand new moniker in accordance to the law.
That's because Kylie Jenner, 25 and Travis Scott, 30, have filed to legally change their son's name.
The former couple welcomed their second child together in February last year and later announced his name on Instagram.

Around a month after the announcement, the reality star and beauty mogul told fans she and rapper Scott - real name Jacques Bermon Webster II - had had a change of heart.
"Fyi our son's name isn't Wolf anymore," she wrote on Instagram in March 2022. "We just really didn't feel like it was him. Just wanted to share because I keep seeing Wolf everywhere."
Their son was born on 2 February, just one day after big sister Stormi celebrated her 4th birthday. Kylie and Scott confirmed the news of their son's birth on 6 February and shared details about his ultimately short-lived name less than a week later on 11 February.
Fans waited in great suspense to hear the baby's new name and what a long wait it was. Some thought the new name might be Jacob after Kylie posted a tribute to her children with the song 'To Our Daughter (Lullaby)' by My Best Friend Jacob.
Another theory suggested the new name might Coco or Coconut after an Instagram post where she said it was 'just me, storm, and coconut traveling the world together'.
At the end of The Kardashians season two, the Kylie Cosmetics founder revealed that her son was still officially called Wolf.
The big announcement came in January ahead of their son's first birthday.
She said on the show: "My baby's name is still Wolf. I'll let you guys know when I change it. Maybe I'll tell you guys in season three."
Kylie then revealed her baby boy's new name is Aire in an Instagram post in January of this year, in which she also showed her son's full face for the first time.
However the name change was not legal until recently as TMZ reports that Aire's parents have just filed the legal documents to get their son's name officially changed from Wolf.
The couple said on their official submission that they 'regret the initial name choice of Wolf Jacques Webster,' according to the outlet.
"Now that Petitioners have had the chance to spend time with their baby, they believe the name Aire Webster is a better fit," the document reportedly says.
Kylie previously confessed that she knew she would want to change her son's name the moment she signed his birth certificate.
"We had to quickly sign the birth certificate, and then I knew the second I signed the birth certificate that I was probably gonna change his name," she told James Corden in September.
"It just didn't suit him."
Tyla has contacted representatives for Kylie and Travis for comment.
