Kourtney Kardashian hasn't even given birth yet — though she is reportedly due soon — and she and Travis Barker have already seemingly revealed the baby's name. According to the couple, the newest addition to the Kar-Jenner family will be named Rocky Barker.

On an episode of the One Life One Chance podcast, Barker casually revealed that they settled on the name Rocky.

“It’s the week that Rocky’s due,” Barker said in response to why he would not be attending a concert his band wanted to do in Hawaii. Host Toby Morse replied, “Rocky 13 Barker,” to which Travis repeated, “Rocky 13 Barker.”

On the topic of his wife's due date, Barker also mentioned that "It's either Halloween or like the first week of November."

Kardashian and Barker have been extremely public about their ongoing pregnancy journey, an approach noticeably opposite of her sisters who were very private. Kylie Jenner took months before deciding to share her second child's name while Khloe Kardashian refused to post photos of her second baby.

Though Kardashian already has three children she shares with her former partner Scott Disick, this will be her first child with Barker. In The Kardashians, Kardashian has been open with her desire to have a baby with Barker, even undergoing multiple rounds of in vitro fertilization (IVF) but later decided to stop due to the mental and physical toll it was taking on her. 

"We would love a baby more than anything, but I just really believe in what God has in store for us," Kardashian shared in a confessional. "If that's a baby, then I believe that it will happen."

In June 2023, Kardashian finally announced her long-desired pregnancy in the most rockstar-wife way. As Barker was performing at a Blink-182 concert, Kardashian held up a poster reading "Travis I'm pregnant."

While the pregnancy has been relatively smooth sailing — from what we know — the biggest public scare was when Kardashian was rushed to the hospital in early September. Days later, she shared with the world through an Instagram post that needed urgent fetal surgery, but her baby is thankfully okay.

"I will be forever grateful to my incredible doctors for saving our baby’s life. I am eternally grateful to my husband who rushed to my side from tour to be with me in the hospital and take care of me afterwards, my rock. And to my mom, thank you for holding my hand through this," the caption read.

She continued, "As someone who has had three really easy pregnancies in the past, I wasn’t prepared for the fear of rushing into urgent fetal surgery. I don’t think anyone who hasn’t been through a similar situation can begin to understand that feeling of fear. I have a whole new understanding and respect for the mamas who have had to fight for their babies while pregnant."

"Praise be to God. Walking out of the hospital with my baby boy in my tummy and safe was the truest blessing," she concluded.
