Baby North West... or Kaidence Dondra? Kim Kardashian and Kanye 'battle it out' over their daughter's name

 It sounds like the punchline to yet another Kardashian joke.
But new mother Kim is said to be seriously considering naming her first child 'North'.
With the child taking her father Kanye's surname the youngster would be 'North West'. But it is not the only name in consideration, with Kim said to prefer the choice of Kaidence, which would follow her family's 'K' theme.

The reality star is said to like the idea of calling the baby Kai for short. The middle name would be Dondra, in honour of Kanye's late mother.
But according to InTouch: 'North is at the top of the list of names'.
A friend of the pair told the gossip magazine: 'They're not totally sure about it. Kanye loves it, Kim is okay with it.'
Prior to the baby's birth on Saturday it had been expected that the pair would continue the 'K' theme that runs in Kim's family - something that Kaidence would fit. Kim, 32, has mentioned in the past that it will likely begin with a 'K'.

Kim's close friend Larsa Pippen revealed that she had been to visit the baby in the hospital and a decision was nearly made.
But she said Kim didn't welcome her suggestions.'We kind of went back and forth and the name that I wanted, [Kim] didn't love,' she said.

Kanye has not spoken publicly following his daughter's arrival.
But he did take to Twitter on Tuesday morning - to promote his new album Yeezus as it was released.
'Yeezus album now available,' he tweeted.
Kanye curtailed his promotional activities when Kim told him she 'felt strange' on Friday, instead flying to be at her side.
With the baby not due until July it had been planned that Kanye would have time to finish his work commitments before the birth.
