Would Rob Kardashian Name His Son ‘Robert the Third’?

Will he stick to his word? Rob Kardashian and Blac Chyna may name their son after both the reality star and his late father, Robert Kardashian. Months before announcing their pregnancy news, Kardashian joked about having a baby boy.

The possible foreshadowing aired during Sunday night’s latest Keeping Up With the Kardashians episode. The dad-to-be, 29, called his mom, Kris Jenner, while she was out to lunch with Kourtney Kardashian. The trio randomly started pretending that Rob already had a little one. 

“What’s your son’s name, Robert? I forgot,” Jenner, 60, asked.

“Robert,” he said.

Kourtney, 37, appeared amused. “I thought it was Cornelius,” she chimed in.

Rob replied: “His name is Robert the Third, actually.” (Robert Kardashian Sr. died at age 59 in September 2003 following a battle with throat cancer.)

Chyna’s rep exclusively confirmed to Us Weekly on May 6 that the couple were expecting their first child together. “She’s very happy,” her rep told Us. The pair also announced the news by posting an emoji of Chyna with a baby bump.

This will be the first child for the Arthur George sock designer and the second for Chyna. The model already shares son King Cairo, 3, with ex-fiancé Tyga. As previously reported, the rapper and Rob’s sister Kylie Jenner called it quits for the second time earlier this month.
