Kim Kardashian has revealed that her fourth child won’t have a “direction name” and confessed that she is “kind of stressing” ahead of the new arrival.

Kardashian and husband Kanye West are preparing to become parents to a fourth child in May, which will be born via a surrogate.

And now Kardashian has confirmed that her son is not going to have a “direction” name like his oldest sister North, five.

“Saint wants to name him Sainty two. He will definitely not have another direction [name],” Kardashian told Vogue.

“That is all for North. And actually, Anna [Wintour] had some influence in naming North because once she heard that rumour, she asked me and said that name was 'genius’. So that was helpful to me.”

The Keeping Up With The Kardashian star also admitted that the couple are “kinda stressing” because their unborn son’s room is “not ready yet”.

Appearing on Jimmy Kimmel Live with her sisters Khloe and Kourtney, Kardashian revealed that she usually waits a couple of days after the newborn’s arrival to name the baby.

“We all weigh in – I definitely take a family survey, but it’s usually after the baby’s born and we’re trying to figure out what the baby looks like,” she told Jimmy Kimmel.

“I usually go about three or four days nameless until I feel like it really connects. I was truthfully thinking about just naming him Rob, [after] my brother.”

However, Kardashian admitted that she wasn’t sure how the name Rob would sound next to North, five, Saint, three, and 15-month-old Chicago.

She also specified that the child would be named “Rob” rather than “Robert,” telling sister Kourtney: “I like Rob West, but not Robert West.
