AceShowbiz - Deciding on baby names can be a challenge, but for Kylie Kelce, wife of former NFL star Jason Kelce, the task becomes even more complex with each child. As she ventures into naming her fourth baby, she explores the idea of a "gender-neutral" name, opening up about her thoughts and experiences on her podcast "Not Gonna Lie."
In a recent episode of her popular podcast, Kylie explained considerations for naming her fourth child. "Going on fourth, it's like a disaster," Kylie admitted, expressing the difficulty of finding a suitable name for their fourth child.
With Wyatt, Elliotte, and Bennett already deviating from traditional "girly" names for their three daughters, Kylie and Jason are leaning towards a gender-neutral name yet again. This time, a little more purposefully.
"We debated Charlie for our first, and then within, I think, six months, we had three different friends who named their kid Charlie," Kylie shared during the episode, explaining why they ultimately chose Wyatt. The couple's inclination towards gender-neutral names has been consistent from the start.
The consideration behind opting for a gender-neutral name is to maintain harmony within the family. "If we do a full commit to a girly name at this point, it would not sit well with the other three, I think. Eventually, they'll be like, 'Why did they get a cute girly name?' " Kylie elaborates.
Also discussed during her podcast was the emotional response of their third daughter, Bennett, to the news of another sibling. Kylie humorously described Bennett's reaction, "When I tell you that Bennie feels deeply and personally victimized by the fact that we chose to give her another sibling, I mean that with my whole chest."
As Kylie and Jason anticipate the arrival of their fourth baby in summer 2025, they continue to navigate the complexities of parenting. With Jason preparing for his late-night hosting gig at ESPN and Kylie launching a career as a podcast host, their voices remain influential in conversations around modern parenting and gender norms.
