Kim Kardashian Reveals the Names Her Kids Gave Their 4 Dogs

Kim Kardashian‘s kids deserve some a-paws for these picks. 

Kim Kardashian revealed her kids inherited her knack for naming things. She explained that North West, 12, Saint West, 10, Chicago West, 8, and Psalm West, 6—her children with ex-husband Kanye West—each got to choose a name for the Pomeranian puppy they received as a Christmas gift.

Kim Kardashian revealed the names of her four puppies on Instagram on January 23rd – Uzi, Teddy, Cookie, and Cinnamon Roll – and playfully challenged her followers to match each pup to her child based on the name.

The Kardashian family revealed their new puppies on social media December 25th, sharing adorable videos of the dogs playing and explaining that each child received one as a gift.

Kim recently shared a sweet video on January 4th showing her and Psalm enjoying time together in Chicago, playing with their dogs and clearly forming a close connection.

You know, as a mom myself, I just love those little moments of pure logic from kids! In a recent video, a sweet little girl named Psalm was explaining to her mom why they needed to run a certain way. She simply said, ‘Mommy, since we’re faster than the doggies, we have to race like this!’ It was the cutest, most straightforward reasoning ever, and a perfect reminder to see the world through their eyes.

Kim has openly talked about how difficult it is to choose names – not just for her pets, but especially for her kids.

Kim revealed in a 2020 fan Q&A that it took her about four or five days to decide on the name North. Surprisingly, the idea came from Jay Leno, who initially suggested it as a joke. Kim even remembers telling him on his show that she would never name her daughter that! But then people started approaching her, telling her it was a really cool name and encouraging her to consider it.

She said Pharrell Williams explained the significance of the name North to her, and that conversation helped her make up her mind. She realized, as she put it, that a name ultimately becomes what you make of it.

She once wrote that being a mother is a wonderful gift, but she’s seen firsthand with her own mom that it’s challenging, particularly when juggling work and family. She feels proud to follow in her mother’s footsteps and hopes to make her as proud as she is of her.

Kim, who filed for divorce in 2021, emphasized in a November 2023 interview with GQ that the most important thing is for children to feel loved and understood. She explained that it’s crucial to be considerate, as going through a difficult time is hard for kids at any age.

She told us that her daughter recently said, ‘Dad is the best! He’s so put-together.’ Apparently, the daughter was surprised that her dad doesn’t have help like a nanny, chef, or security, and that he lives in an apartment. She even started to cry, asking why they don’t have an apartment and saying she couldn’t believe they didn’t.

During a November 2023 episode of The Kardashians, Kim playfully mentioned that her sister, Kourtney Kardashian, often says North is meant to be a learning experience for her.

You know, my oldest daughter is really teaching me what patience truly means. It’s funny, but she’s the one reminding me to slow down and breathe! Honestly, she’s taught me so much about just living life, and I’m so grateful for that.

In an essay for Wealthsimple published in July 2018, she explained her concerns about spoiling her children. They don’t receive gifts unless they’ve truly earned them, but she emphasizes the importance of balance and staying grounded through ongoing conversations about not having excessive material possessions and striving to be well-rounded individuals.

In 2018, during a photoshoot for Calvin Klein, she explained that becoming a mother completely shifts your priorities to focus solely on your family and what’s happening at home. Everything else seems to become less important.

Kim Kardashian emphasized the importance of family, saying, “Truly, nothing else matters, and focusing on them helps keep you balanced and centered.”

Kim shared in an interview with Mobio Insider that having a child completely transformed her life. She explained that your priorities shift dramatically, and suddenly, your new family is all that truly matters.

Kim wrote in a 2017 blog post about her deep and unwavering love for her children. She said she’ll always be there for them, no matter what paths they take in life.

Being a mom also shined new light on her own upbringing.

Growing up, my family was incredibly close. Now that I’m a mother myself, I finally understand the strong connection my parents had with us. Raising kids definitely has its challenges, but I always learn something new from them. Being a mom is, without a doubt, the most rewarding thing I do.

I enjoy sharing aspects of my life, but after the robbery in Paris, I’ve become more careful about what I post. I’ve realized it’s better to hold onto photos and share them later, after I’ve left a location, rather than posting everything in real time. I learned that sharing every detail immediately didn’t work out well for me.

After having a baby, I took some time off work, and it was hard to go back because I didn’t want to be away from my child,” she told TopMob News after North West was born. “But you get used to it, learn what’s most important, and make it work!”

 

In 2017, on The Real, Kim explained she needed to sort things out before sharing anything publicly. She added that if there was something to celebrate – specifically, the baby – she wanted the focus to be on the child. Her priority was explaining the situation to her kids first and deciding how to talk to them about it.

She expressed deep gratitude, saying in a 2017 episode of Keeping Up With the Kardashians that she was incredibly thankful for someone who was so selfless and kind enough to do something for her.

Oh my gosh, she gets it! Back in January 2015, she posted on her app about how some moms want to keep breastfeeding super private, and that’s totally fine, but others are comfortable nursing anywhere, and that’s amazing too! She basically said, and I quote, ‘Whatever makes you comfortable goes!’ It’s just… she understands! It’s so empowering to hear her say that, like, you do you and don’t let anyone else tell you what’s right for you and your baby. I’ve been re-reading it constantly, it’s just perfect.

The reality star shared with TopMob News back in 2015 that they frequently talk about their new baby brother. She recounted a sweet moment from the previous day, where her daughter asked, “Mommy, can I kiss baby brother on your tummy?” and then gently kissed her stomach.

Kim described her daughter North as “very sweet” and shared that North used to get upset when she held other babies, but has been improving.

She added, “I’m hoping that with her brother it’s a whole new experience.”

In a 2015 episode of Keeping Up With the Kardashians, Kim expressed her gratitude, saying, “I’m so thankful for this. It’s a miracle that I’m pregnant again, and I feel incredibly blessed.”

In June 2015, while pregnant with her second child, Kim tweeted jokingly, “Pregnant KiKi doesn’t mess around! BLOOP!

Kim shared a sweet message in June 2015, saying that moments like being on tour with her family were the highlights of her life. She praised her partner as a wonderful father to their daughter North and expressed excitement that he would be just as amazing with their new son.

Back in July 2015, while pregnant with her son Saint, Kim Kardashian jokingly tweeted about enjoying the rumors that she was pretending to be pregnant, especially since she was so thin at the time. She then revealed she was five months along and had gained twenty pounds, saying, “Well can’t hide it now!”

She shared with TopMob News in November 2015 that getting pregnant was a difficult journey, and she feels incredibly grateful to be expecting. She added that all the challenges were absolutely worth it in the end.

The reality star responded to online criticism about her pregnancy, after some people accused her of faking it. She shared a nude photo and wrote that she was first told she looked too thin to be pregnant, and now people are saying she’s too big – which she found frustrating.

I’ve always loved what she shared back in August 2015 on Instagram – it really resonated with me. She pointed out something so true: every single body is unique, and every pregnancy journey is completely different! It helped me realize I needed to embrace and love my body through all the changes, at every stage.

Back in November 2015, she jokingly mentioned on her app that she was hoping to receive a Lorraine Schwartz diamond choker for her pregnancy – similar to ones she’d worn to the Art + Film Gala. She added with a laugh, ‘Is that asking too much?’

Kim Kardashian shared on Twitter in 2015 that having her daughter is the most important thing she’s ever accomplished. She explained that once you become a parent, your priorities completely shift, and your child becomes everything to you.

Kim Kardashian shared in 2015 that becoming a mother to her first daughter was the most fulfilling thing she’d ever done. She explained that having a child completely changes your priorities – everything else fades in importance when your child comes first.

She playfully commented on Instagram in October 2015 that she felt very slim being surrounded by so many supermodels, adding a laughing emoji and the hashtag #InStyleAwards.

Kim Kardashian reused the Givenchy dress she famously wore to the 2013 Met Gala – when she was pregnant with North – as a Halloween costume while expecting her son, Saint.

“Still fits,” she captioned an October 2015 snapshot. “I think I nailed the Kim K costume!”
