Kylie Jenner and Travis Scott have legally filed to change their son's name more than a year after saying the infant's original birth name didn't "feel like him."

The 25-year-old reality star revealed at the start of the year that she and 30-year-old Travis had decided to name their son Aire after months of speculation.

TMZ obtained the legal documents on the name change from Wolfe Jacques Webster to Aire Webster this week.

The documents, which are on their way through the courts, were okayed and signed by both Kylie and Travis.

In the legal filing, the parents say that they "regret the initial name choice of Wolf Jacques Webster. Now that Petitioners have had the chance to spend time with their baby, they believe the name Aire Webster is a better fit."

It was in early February last year that Kylie shared the news with her followers that she was now a mom of two, alongside a sweet snap of her daughter Stormi holding her little brother's hand.

Not long after the little one was born, the makeup mogul announced that she and the 'Love Galore' rapper had decided to name the newborn Wolf. She even shared the baby's name on her Instagram Story, where she simply wrote: "Wolf Webster."

In the month that followed, the Kylie Cosmetics founder took to Instagram once more to share with her hundreds of millions of followers on the app that her child's name was no longer Wolf.

Kylie wrote on her story: "FYI our son’s name isn’t wolf anymore [laughing emoji] We just really didn’t feel like it was him. Just wanted to share because I keep seeing Wolf everywhere. [praying emoji] [sic]"

In a September 2022 episode of her famous family's reality show The Kardashians, Kylie opened up about why she wanted to change her son's name in the first place.

Per Us Magazine, she told her mom Kris: "We really didn’t have a name. We thought it was going to come to us when we saw him and it didn’t.

"Then 24 hours before we had to sign the birth certificate — or else they register him without a name — so I felt the pressure to choose a name. Khloé suggested Wolf and I liked the WW. So we put Wolf Webster in that moment and right after I signed the birth certificate I was like, ‘What did I just do?​​​​'”
