Kourtney Kardashian & Scott Disick named their son Reign Aston Disick

KK IG

I kind of forgot that Kourtney Kardashian had her baby a week ago. My bad. And since I forgot about the baby, I also didn’t remember that Kourtney and Scott Disick hadn’t announced the name. Well, Kourtney took care of that on Sunday when she posted the “first photo” of her third child – that’s the header photo, taken off Kourtney’s Instagram. I don’t really have an opinion of parents posting photos of baby fingers/hands, but let’s just not call it the first baby photo, okay? It doesn’t count unless we can see baby-face.

Anyway, Kourtney posted the photo with the message “Madly in love with my little Reign Aston Disick.” Yes, this poor baby’s name is REIGN. REIGN ASTON. I guess “Aston” like Aston-Martin, or Sean Astin. Maye she’s a fan of Goonies? As for Reign… NO. Nope. I’m not even going to pretend that’s a real name. I would have rolled my eyes at “Rain” but at least I would have understood it with that spelling. I literally have no comprehension for why a parent would name their child REIGN. It’s a verb! It’s like naming your kid Jog or Swim. Plus, Reign doesn’t fit with his siblings’ names, Mason and Penelope. It just doesn’t make any sense. But hey, at least it’s not Jermajesty? Honestly, I think Reign is right up there with Jermajesty though.

(PS… I know some semantic nitpickers are probably going to yell at me, so let me just cut you off right here: I know “Reign” is also a noun. But can we all agree that it’s still a stupid name?)

    Yes, I think we can all agree that the name is ridiculous… however, considering that crazy family, it may be the least of that poor child’s problems

    Can i have a christmas wish? Not so much Kardashian in the new year please?
    Try Robert Pattison and his new girlfriend instead, they are seriously cute and kind of interesting together.

    • Charlie says:

      I read an interview with her and she’s soooo pretentious. I do not like her. At least you can laugh at the Kardashians.

      • Zoe says:

        If i wanna laugh i watch a Kristen Wiig or Will Ferrell movie. I prefer pretensious and trying to create something of quality to vacuous, pointlessness.
        each to their own , i guess…

        Vogue just said Twigs is the break through style icon of the year and They the new anti it couple, so the argument is that she/they are culturally relevant in pop culture.
        Which is i guess is what this site is trying to cover. Cant just have Cumberbatch and Kardashians posts every day

      • Charlie says:

        They are not anti “it”. They sure try to be though.
        If I want to read something of substance, I’ll read a post about Chris Rock or Jon Stewart or Elizabeth Banks.
        FKA Twighs just comes across as try hard and pretentious. To me, that is. Plus, I don’t like her music and her performances seem to be more about aesthetics than the music itself. She is very beautiful to look at, I’ll give her that.

      • Zoe says:

        that was vogue who called them that, not me. You seem like you have a basic dislike for her. That isn’t the point here. They are relevant. This site seems to be a bit heavy on certain people like Kardashians and Cumbernbartch. Would be nice with a broader spectre of people covered. We don’t have to like or approve of every single person, Charlie. Just a bit more diversity.

      • Charlie says:

        Of course we don’t need to approve every single person.
        You just said they were cute and interesting, and I commented that I find her pretentious. We’re just trading opinions here.

      • chloeee says:

        I really don’t find her pretentious. Her early dancing stuff is so cool. She used to work in workshops in London with dancing and her ability to reach into even meek kids was awesome.

  3. SamiHami says:

    Those do not look like a newborn baby’s fingers.

  4. elisabeth says:

    Lil Kim named her daughter Reign didn’t she?

    • Gina says:

      She named her daughter Majesty Reign or something something Reign, as the middle name. I like Scott and he is the Lord…and I think the name is cute. Now if that wasn’t a run on sentence!

      • Bridget says:

        She named her daughter Royal Reign. So congrats Kourtney and Scott, you have the same taste as Lil Kim.

  5. aligoat says:

    Eh, I don’t think it’s that bad. Keep in mind NORTH WEST exists.

    • Snazzy says:

      Valid point 🙂

    • LadyMTL says:

      It’s bad, but compared to North West yeah…it’s alright. I just find that it really doesn’t fit with Mason and Penelope, though. It’s like Kourtney let Scott name this baby and his ego just ran rampant. 😛

    • Charlie says:

      I think North is better than Reign ( which also somehow sounds feminine to me), but paired with West it’s horrible.

  6. Misprounced Name Dropper says:

    Maybe she’s a fan of Slayer’s Reign in Blood album.

  7. Mzizkrizten says:

    I think Aston is bad. It starts with ass for goodness sake. At least it’s a middle name.

    • anne says:

      When I see the surname Disick written, i see & read Dick. I’m not a viewer of the show, but given the angry expression I see on this guy’s face in photographs, i’m fine leaving it there.

  8. NewWester says:

    Maybe that baby will have a accident on the parent who suggested that name. Hopefully when said parent is wearing a fancy suit or dress.

  9. Kimmy says:

    Scott does all that Lord Disick stuff, so maybe that’s why? Still a dumb name though!

    • imjustme says:

      That was my thought as well… like a monarchy reign. Pretty pathetic.

      • Mel M says:

        Exactly, this family thinks that they are royalty. Didn’t Kanye say something about Norths name meaning something similar, like the highest point?

  10. Tippy says:

    It takes time for new baby names to eventually build up cachet.

    • anne says:

      it does, and while “Aston” may be unfamiliar to me, it still sounds like a proper name, but “Reign?” Reign is a noun & a verb with an existing meaning. I hear incredible out-of-touch arrogance in that choice. It’s like naming your daughter “Princess” or something. It’s weird.

      judgmental me.

  11. GiGi says:

    I don’t mind unusual names, generally, but I cannot stand when the kids names don’t flow. Mason, Penelope & Reign? They sound competely bizarre together.

    ETA – By flow, I in no way mean rhymed names, or Duggar-style naming… I just like it when the kids names all have the same feeling to them.

    • Tiffany27 says:

      Agreed. The names don’t really flow together and they don’t sound like siblings. I’m always interested in baby names so I always analyze stuff like this.

    • Norman Bates' Mother says:

      +2 It sounds bizarre and it’s kind of unfair to the child who is named differently (in a bad way) than their siblings. Kate Winslet’s Mia, Joe and Bear come to mind. Bear Winslet is in a worse situation as he is even further differentiated from his siblings who have normal first names and both carry their father’s last names while his father was dumb enough to change his name to Rock’n’Roll. At least Reign won’t be the dumbest named child in the family. Cousin North West still wins.

      • anne says:

        Oh, I forgot about KW and her Mr. “Rock’n’Roll.”

        Bear could be a lovely nickname for a small child, but imagine meeting a grown man named Bear So&So. Odd to me. Especially in England, no? Perhaps, in KW’s elite circle, that kind of “different” is considered pleasantly eccentric. Is that it?

      • Misprounced Name Dropper says:

        Bear Grylls?

  12. Lucy2 says:

    Whenever someone gets their baby a weird name, I wonder what’s going to happen when they grow up and are applying for a job. Then again, probably not a concern for this family.

  13. * says:

    I can never read “Disick” correctly. I always mistakenly read it as “Scott Dick” and then have to mentally correct myself.

  14. Christina says:

    Hmmm someone is thinking their kid is royalty. He shall Reign over a ton of asses! Also you really shouldn’t use anything with ass in it when your last name has a dick in it. This name just sucks.

  15. OriginalTessa says:

    How do Mason and Penelope have a sister named Reign? Makes no sense. There’s no cohesion. It’d be like if Michael Jackson named one of his kids Brian.

  16. Gina says:

    Oh stop Reigning on their parade. The names not that bad. My goodness his cousin was named after a compass… geez

  17. serena says:

    Another example of idiotic celeb-parents. Poor children, they’ll stand out no matter what. I kind of liked how Kourtney gave her first two normale names, but what the heck is with Reign? This is the same level of idiocy of ‘North’. Give these children normal names, for god’s sake!

  18. Chibichichai says:

    Sounds like someone was hopped up on pain killers when they were thinking of this name.

  19. Brittney B says:

    Hahaha, “it’s like naming your kid Jog or Swim.” You crack me up.

    I still insist this was all Scott’s doing. He wanted a little Lord Disick with a douchey sports car built right into his name. This family HONESTLY believes they’re American royalty (and I guess it’s not too far off, if that means being famous for the family you belong to, and never doing any actual work except for shopping trips and “appearances”).

    Seriously, though. I wonder what tantrum he was threatening to throw if Kourtney didn’t let him handle the paperwork this time around. If baby takes after daddy, we shall call him Reign of Terror.

  20. Dawn says:

    Okay so the only Kardashian who had any credibility and education just lost it by naming her child a verb. Truly what a ridiculous pompous name for a child whose parents only found fame due to a reality show and only then because his aunt released a sex video where she was peed on and worse. It is just so tacky.

  21. maeliz says:

    There are worse names in Hollywood. Pilot Inspektor, Apple, Denim, Diezel, Kyd,Satchel, and don’t forget North

  22. Totes says:

    So clearly she named Mason and Penelope and she gave the baby naming duties for the third to Scott.

  23. Citresse says:

    I think Reign is the last child, therefore I guess Kourt and Scott wanted a real attention grabbing name. Imagine informally being called Reigny, (sounds like Rainy), not a nice name at all.

    • senaber says:

      His initials are RAD. I bet they call him Rad.

      ETA: nicegirl made this point first below. I need to read comments before I leave one! 🙁

  24. word says:

    No Jermajesty is the worst name of all time. In my opinion, Reign is not that bad of a name. It’s the middle name I have an issue with because you have Aston and Dissick next to each other, and at a quick glance it looks like a bad word lol.

    • swack says:

      Ask some teachers or nurses and they will tell you there are some other worse names. We had twins (identical) at the school I taught at and they were called Therese and Therese H. I also had a Antijuan (Antwan for all you who are trying to guess).

      • word says:

        I was talking about “celebrity” names. Oh yes trust me I know regular non-famous people give their kids the most effed up names too.

  25. nicegirl says:

    At least his initials spell RAD . . . nickname?

  26. Amy says:

    People are just going to think the name is Rain which is not nearly as majestic sounding. I don’t like Rain either but it’s better than Reign I suppose.

  27. Pia says:

    for all it’s worth, Aston is an old English name, it means “noble stone”. And that’s the name of my firstborn who’s 7 now.
    I have nothing for Reign though…

    • Pia says:

      Could Reign be the English version of Rainier (think Monaco) ? because in French Rainier sounds like the verb régner which means to reign

  28. Ankhel says:

    Any chance this poor kid won’t be called AssDick in the school yard? Let’s hope he becomes a very clever and handsome jock!

  29. Snap Happy says:

    I think Reign was a result of North. Kourtney trying to keep-up with the jonses (Kims). If Reign was born before North his name would have been Cooper.

  30. Angelica says:

    Damn. I think she ran out of ideas, lol. Mason had ‘Dash’ for her side and Penelope had ‘Scotland’ for Scott and this go round…? Wha…? I don’t hate any of the names but like previous commenters said, he sounds like he’ll “Reign” over ass-tons and d(is)icks. Crazy, but whatever. So again I say, damn. I was hoping for a Geoffrey or an Archer. Oh well.

  31. Mikeyangel says:

    I worked at a pharmacy a while ago and a lady literally named her son Illkillya. Not a joke. That kid has a predestination.
