On Saturday, Kylie Jenner revealed the name of her baby son, who was born in February.
The beauty entrepreneur disclosed the name of her baby, Aire, while also releasing a series of photos of him with rapper Travis Scott.
However, it didn’t take long for the internet to point out that ‘Aire’ appears to translate to’my penis’ in Arabic slang.
Following the announcement of Kylie and Travis’ son’s name, writer Antoinette Lattouf tweeted, ‘Umm should someone tell Kylie Jenner she titled her son Aire, which is a typical Arabic term for “my penis,” or nah?’
Antoinette wasn’t the only person to point out the translation, with other comments on social media including: ‘Kylie Jenner named her son “AIRE” only if she knows what the means in Arabic’ and ‘kylie named her son “aire” and it means something real nasty in arabic lmaoooo.’
‘Kylie Jenner named her son ….. aire lmaoooo laughs in Arabic,’ tweeted someone else, while another person quipped: ‘That poor kid is going to be renamed again.’
According to Urban Dictionary, ‘Ayre’ is ‘Arabic for best friend’ but ‘also means penis depending on its use’.
However, in Hebrew, ‘Aire’ means lion of God, according to Nameberry.com.
Kylie previously discussed her indecision over her son’s name, explaining why she and her ex-Travis had first opted on the name Wolf.
The 25-year-old said: ‘We didn’t really have a name, I just thought it was going to come to us when we saw him and it didn’t.
’24 hours before we had to sign the birth certificate, or else they just register him without a name and he doesn’t get a social security number… So I felt the pressure to choose a name, and then Khloe said, the day before we sign, “What about Wolf?”’
The mum-of-two went on: ‘I like the WW, so we just put Wolf Webster in that moment. Right after I signed the birth certificate, I was like, “What did I just do?” It’s a part of his story but his name has changed.’
Kylie and Travis, who originally made their relationship public at Coachella in 2017 but split temporarily in 2019 before reuniting, have a four-year-old daughter Stormi.
Kylie and Travis divorced for the second time in early January, over a year after Aire was born.
