Kylie Kelce is keeping it real and giving herself a hard time just two days after giving birth to her and Jason Kelce’s fourth daughter, Finn.

True to form, Kylie got into all the nitty gritty details as she held the tiny baby in her arms. She discussed her birth story, shared her tips for speaking to new moms and addressed the speculation and commentary surrounding her daughter’s name — Finnley “Finn” Anne Kelce.

Kylie, who already shares daughters Wyatt, 5, Elliotte, 4, and Bennett, 2, with Jason, noted that she gave listeners “fair warning” that her newest baby girl’s name might not have two Ts in it.
“If we don’t have two Ts, it’s okay, and she’s still one of us,” Kylie quipped.
And while Kylie and Jason are fans of their baby girl’s name, Kylie revealed that the little girl didn’t have a name for the first 24 hours of her life.
“We had an idea. We had discussed names with anyone that we could trust to not share names, and we didn’t go with a single option that we had been discussing,” Kylie said, laughing.
The mother of four added that at one point she planned to call the little one “Baby Girl Kelce.”
“I considered just letting that one roll,” Kylie shared. “It was gonna be a very, like, Phoebe from Friends moment of like, ‘Oh, you named her Baby Girl.’ ”

When it came time for the couple to be discharged from the hospital, Kylie said she only had Finn’s middle name — Anne.
“It’s the most generic middle name you could possibly have,” she said, jokingly adding, “I love that I’m just roasting myself.”
She added that the name Anne “covers a lot of people” in her life, including nods to her own mom, her paternal grandmother and her sister.
Additionally, Kylie shared that she and Jason were considering the names Colette (Cole) for short and Georgie, but noted, “I didn’t like anything that got us to Georgie.”

“One of the other names we considered was Winifred. That is not the name of our dead dog,” Kylie added of her dog who died in March 2024. “Her name was Winnie, and we had plans to call the baby Freddie because I think a little girl named Freddie has to be, like, so badass and so cute.”
As for the public’s take on her baby name picks, Kylie joked, “I totally respect your opinion on the names of our children. You’re allowed to have your own opinion, but I actually don’t care what it is. And I mean that in the most, like, loving and respectful way.”
Despite the rushed nature of the name selection, Kylie noted of her baby girl, “She’s very much a Finn. Like, she’s a cute, little Finn.”
Kylie added that Finn had been a contender for her second daughter Elliotte’s name.

The name Finn already has the approval of the baby girl’s famous uncle, Travis Kelce, who met the little one virtually during a taping of Travis and Jason’s New Heights podcast.
“Finn Anne, that’s adorable!” Travis told his brother upon learning the little one’s name for the first time during the episode which aired on Wednesday, April 2.
Travis also gave his niece a sweet nickname, saying, “Hey, little muffin! Look at you.”
