All hail Saint West!
On Dec. 7, Kim Kardashian and Kanye West revealed the name of their newborn son, Saint West.
Are we even surprised?
Not really, as Kanye believes himself to be a prophet.
First we had the lovely North West, who has graced our homes with adorableness and a little bit of sass in memes circulating all over the Internet. Now we've not only got a baby named after Google Maps, but a true saint in our midst! Nuts!
I've long given up trying to understand the need for the rich and famous to give their children obscure and often ridiculous names. More power to them! But now this kid has all sorts of crazy expectations as a saint. His life is already going to be crazy with parents like Kim and Kanye, not to mention the extended family, but now they've named him Saint? Imagine the possibilities.
He could follow his pops' footsteps and have a very awesome rap career. Kanye is basically expecting little Saint to take over for him when he's retired or off on some random island he owns somewhere. Kanye can't work forever; dude's gotta relax and drink some juice.
Saint West, future NFL player? Anyone else notice that lil Saint also shares the name of the New Orleans Saints, and one of their former players happens to be an ex of Kim Kardashian? Yikes, sorry Kanye.
He could literally become a saint, you guys.
I would have loved to be in that room when Kanye and Kim sat down and wondered, "What should we name our newborn son?" They knew they couldn't have done South, or any other direction on the compass. Been there done that, am I right? I'm personally disappointed they decided against some real good names, like: Easton West, Wild Wild West, South West (obviously) and Best West (ern).
Just a waste, in my opinion. They probably threw names like John and Samuel around, maybe a Joe or a Bill, and thought nah! Let's just go for it. Saint! I can hear the Christian groups going nuts now. We'll blow that Starbucks cup thing out of the water!
He's obviously going to be the favorite child. Any time anyone tries to get him in trouble, all anyone will be able to say is, "Come on, the kid's a saint!"
As the son of Yeezus, he'll have a lot of expectations from not only his father, but everybody. The son of Yeezus, Saint West. It's a real "Lion King" story. One day, everything Kanye touches will be his, that means a lot of juice. (I still can't get over the juice thing from the VMAs, if no one can tell).
Lastly, he will probably never be allowed to smile. Tragic is the life of a Saint.
Eighteen years, eighteen years, stuck with that name for at least eighteen years. Good luck, kid.
