Ms Kardashian announced the highly-anticipated baby name on her website, kimkardashianwest.com, with the message: “To our fans. Saint West. 12.05.15. 8 pounds, 1 ounce.”
The couple revealed the birth of their second child on Saturday with a tweet showing their clasped hands, and the words “He’s here!”.
It was first announced the couple were expecting a new child in June this year in a tweet.
Many had speculated the couple would choose another directional name, following the naming of their daughter North West, now two years old.
Those who placed any bets with Paddy Power for the new baby being named Easton West, South West or Robert – the name of Ms Kardashian’s late father – will be sorely disappointed.
