Kylie Jenner admits she was almost given different name - and it suits her even better

Kylie Jenner has revealed that she was almost given a completely different name.

Although the makeup mogul's trademark moniker is now a household name - with her even tipping Kylie Minogue off the Kylie fame Richter scale - her parents, Kris and Bruce Jenner were fond of another first name before beginning with the letter K.

Momager Kris Jenner has famously given all her daughters names beginning with the letter K, as Kourtney, Kim, Khloe, Kendal and Kylie all share the same initials.

However, in a new TikTok video, Kylie, 25, has revealed that she was almost called Kennedy - a name which her mother fell head over heels with.

Kylie explained the situation with her millions of TikTok fans while cuddling in bed with her four-year-old daughter, Stormi Webster.

The makeup mogul told fans: "My name is Kylie but it was almost Kennedy."

Long before the name had presidential reference, after US president John F. Kennedy, the name, which is a common surname in Ireland, began as the Gaelic word which means 'helmeted chief' and dates back to 10th century Ireland.

Despite liking the name Kennedy, Kylie admitted that it just doesn't 'hit the same' as her given name.

In the comments, Kylie's fans rushed to point out that Kennedy would have been too close to Kendall, as her supermodel sister is often called 'Kenny' for short.

"I think it would match with your vibe," one fan insisted, while another stated they didn't think "Kennedy sounded nearly the same as Kendall".

"Sorry but why do I like that name so much more than Kylie!!!! It suits her so much better," another insisted.

"OMG! Kris made the wrong choice picking Kylie. Kennedy Jenner sounds so ace," someone else swooned.

While another commented: "I can totally see you as a Kennedy."

"Kennedy Cosmetics" another TikTok user marvelled.

It comes after a 2019 episode of Keeping Up With The Kardashians, saw Kylie and Kendall's half-sister Kim, 41, reveal their mom nearly named Kendall, Juliet Jenner.

Kris then admitted that she went through several name choices including Sophia, Jane and Kelly before landing on Kylie for the younger sibling.
