Kourtney Kardashian has legally changed her name after her 2022 marriage to Travis Barker, and her fans are pointing out the same thing.

Kourtney, 44, married the Blink-182 drummer last year, and it would appear that they have taken another step in their relationship.

Taking to Instagram, Kourtney has revealed that she has legally changed her name to Kourtney Kardashian Barker, as she captioned her post "Say my name".

Using her husband's surname is an acknowledgment of their relatively recent nuptials, but a section of Kardashian Barker's fans are pointing out the same thing - and it's that she couldn't drop the name Kardashian.

Given how, for better or worse, the Kardashian name has become one of the most recognizable names on the planet, it is understandable that Kourtney would want to hold onto it. But, naturally, that didn't stop people online from offering their thoughts.

"She did not drop her last name. Because it won't be so difficult when it's over," one fan wrote, as a second added: "Can't even give up the Kardashian name. Should have just been Kourtney Barker!"

A third Instagram user summed up what a lot of people were saying, stating: "Shouldve [sic] just been Kourtney Barker."

This news follows the revelation that the pair have already decided what they are going to call their first child together.

The 44-year-old and her husband have been trying for a baby for over 18 months, with their various trials and tribulations of course documented on reality show The Kardashians.

Kourtney and Travis wasted no time in their journey to making a baby, including embarking on a grueling IVF journey.

Last September, Kourtney revealed had stopped having the treatment as it caused her many unpleasant side effects, including making her spiral into depression. She has often candidly spoken about the way IVF had affected her, including by hitting back at fans who commented on her weight gain as a result of the hormones she was taking.

Kourtney already has three children - Mason, 13, Penelope, 10, and Reign, eight - who she shares with ex-boyfriend Scott Disick, 39. Travis also has two children of his own - Landon, 19, and Alabama, 17 - with ex-wife Shanna Moakler, 48.

Kourtney appeared to reveal to Travis that she was pregnant during a Blink-182 concert, in a moment that referenced an iconic shot from Blink's All The Small Things video, and after uploading a series of pictures to Instagram, Travis teased that he already knew the baby's name... with many people joking that it'll be "drummer".
