Kylie Kelce🎙podcaster and wife of 🏈NFL player Jason Kelce — defended their daughter's traditionally boy names on a recent episode of her podcast Not Gonna Lie.
📛Wyatt 📛Elliotte 📛Bennett and 📛Finnley — are their daughter's very boyish names.
Kelce was asked a question on how her daughter's names were chosen and she explodes, “This next question appears to be pure rage bait. ‘What’s with the boy names?’ I’ll tell you what’s with the boys' names. We — my husband and I — liked gender neutral names for our daughters. Elliotte’s nickname is Ellie so you can f--- off. The part that I take issue with on people having issue with our names is that I actually didn’t ask. I didn’t ask what you thought about my kids’ names. My husband and I agreed on the names. We like them. You, honestly, you should try naming a human being. It’s not easy. And so, yeah, I’m good.”
😳
On daughter Wyatt's name Kelce says people ask: if Wyatt “is a family name” assuming, “they’re trying to find a saving grace in the fact that my husband and I picked Wyatt for a little girl.” She says she and her husband selected Wyatt, “before we knew the gender of the baby. We decided we liked it as a boy or as a girl.”
Kelce previously shared the process behind naming her youngest daughter, Finn, on an earlier podcast episode of hers saying: “For the first 24 hours of her life, she did not have a name. We had discussed names with anyone we could trust to not share names. We didn’t go with a single option that we had been discussing, so there’s that." She admits that Finnley was actually a name considered for sister Elliotte. “Considering we had to name four children with the same gender, we had to run it back to the archives and borrow one from a different child, and that’s what we did."
I'm not going to lie... I don't like any of these names 🙅🏾♀️ (sorry!😬) — especially used as girl's names but even if they were for four sons Kelce had instead. I find the names bland. 🤷🏾♀️ I'm a name snob. 🙋🏾♀️ I have extremely specific 🧐 taste in 📛names and I will always like a 🦄unique name over an 🥱uninteresting name. Now I'm not against (so much) usually boy names used as a girl name or a feminine spin put on a boy's name (a la 📛Billie) but it's not my name preference. I like super girly / feminine 📛names for girls 💗 and very boyish / masculine 📛names for boys. 💙
I do feel Kelce's rage 🤬 after the 'rage bait' caller called into her podcast to question her daughter's names. 🤨 Because if I had children and someone questioned their choice of names, I would definitely take it personally. 👌🏾
