Kylie and Jason Kelce announced in an Instagram post back in November that their fourth child, a girl, is on the way. However, the couple isn’t ready to reveal a name. And no, they are not trying to be secretive about it. They just haven’t decided on one yet.

Kylie, understandably, has been repeatedly asked about when they’ll reveal the name. Well, if people thought that naming would have been easy for the Kelces since they have had experience with it, think again. It’s apparently not.
“A lot of you are wondering what we are going to name baby number four. First of all, I love the confidence. But even if I did have a name picked out, I’d probably keep it in the family,” Kylie shared on her podcast.
“Not Gonna Lie. What I will say: we don’t have a name picked out. So, you’re not missing out on anything,” she added.
Fans of the couple, however, continue to share name suggestions as the due date approaches — something Kylie says she’s appreciative of.
It can be hard to pick a name for a newborn. The dilemma for parents is manifold. To start with, there are so many to choose from. And it’s hard to decide whether you want to go for something unique or ubiquitous. After all, the child has to live with it for the rest of their life. So, the choice has to be wise.
And the Kelces have been more than wise, and creative too. They named their firstborn Wyatt Elizabeth Kelce. She is five now. Their second girl is Elliotte Kelce, 3, and their one-year-old daughter is Bennett Llewellyn Kelce.

The podcast discussion then shifted to pets when fans asked Kylie whether she would be getting a kitten for the kids now that they’re old enough.
Kylie and Jason are known animal lovers. Their dog, Winnie, sadly passed away in March of 2024. They have another puppy now, and are thinking about adding felines into the household as well.
While Kylie is planning on following through with the idea, she mentioned that the kitten wouldn’t be for the kids.
“I hate to break it to you, but the kitten would not be for the girls,” she said as she held back laughter. “The kitten is for mom.”
Kylie went on to explain that when she was young, she imagined having as many animals in the house as possible. She never watched popular programs like MTV or ESPN while growing up. Instead, Kylie opted for National Geographic and Animal Planet, as she was enamored by wildlife.
However, Kylie recognizes that pets are a lot of work. With three kids to manage, and a fourth on the way, she hasn’t found the right time to welcome a kitten into the home. Kylie said that she wants to be able to dedicate enough energy to a pet if she decides to get one.

It’s a wonderful stance on something that some people ignore. While it is fun to own a pet, some like the idea of it rather than the actual execution. Pets require attention, especially when they’re young. It is just like bringing up kids. It’s reckless and shortsighted to get pets if you aren’t going to give them the time and effort needed to make their lives fulfilling.
It also seems that Jason, too, is holding back on the idea of adopting a kitten, Kylie revealed. With time, she hopes he not only says yes but also comes to wish for a cat himself.
“Believe it or not, I do love and respect my husband,” Kylie said with a chuckle. “And if he doesn’t want a cat right now, I don’t necessarily wanna do it against his will. I do think there will come a time when we break him down and that he not only says, ‘It’s okay’ but is on board with the decision.”
It seems Kylie knows what she’s doing when it comes to parenting, be it the kids, or pets. When the timing is right, she’ll get a kitten. And surely, she will reveal the upcoming daughter’s name at the right moment too.
