Kylie Kelce, a mother of four daughters, has recently come under scrutiny for choosing what some refer to as “boy names” for her children. The 33-year-old, who shares her daughters Wyatt Elizabeth, 6, Elliotte Ray, 4, Bennett Llewellyn, 2, and Finnley “Finn” Anne, 7 months, with her husband, Jason Kelce, addressed the criticism on a special Thanksgiving bonus episode of her Not Gonna Lie podcast.

During the podcast, Kylie shared that a fan had questioned the reasoning behind their choice of names, calling it “pure rage bait.” She explained that both she and her husband preferred gender-neutral names for their daughters. The couple had selected Wyatt before knowing the baby’s gender, as they believed it worked well for both a boy or girl.
In response to the criticism, Kylie defended their decision, stating, “The part that I take issue with on people having an issue with our names is that I actually didn’t ask. I didn’t ask what you thought about my kids’ names.” She emphasised that naming a human being is a challenging task and affirmed that she and her husband are content with the names they have chosen for their children.
Kylie also revealed that Elliotte’s nickname is Ellie and expressed her frustration towards those who question their choices. Despite occasional inquiries about the family names, Kylie remains steadfast in her stance that everyone should respect their decisions regarding their daughters’ names.
Referring to the backlash, Kylie humorously remarked, “You know what the theme of this episode besides giving thanks might be? Getting f—– because they can get f—–. How ‘bout that?” Her strong response highlights her determination to stand by her choices in the face of criticism.
She further shared insights into the naming process for their youngest daughter, Finnley. Kylie disclosed that they had initially considered the name for Elliotte, demonstrating the thoughtful approach they take when naming their children. The Kelce family’s deliberations exemplify their commitment to selecting names that hold personal significance to them.
Kylie’s candid response to the questioning of her daughters’ names serves as a reminder that individual choices regarding children’s names should be respected. The Kelce family’s preference for gender-neutral names reflects their unique perspective on parenting and highlights the importance of embracing diversity and inclusivity in all aspects of life.
