People really want to know the name of Kim Kardashian and Kanye West's new baby girl.

Since welcoming their third child into the world, people have been coming up with theories about the baby's name. Some are hoping they stick to the basics with a Kardashian-appropriate "K" name and others are hoping for a crazy decision like Wild West.

As fans looked closely at Kim's social media habits this week for clues, one popular theory developed that the baby's name had something to do with Louis Vuitton after people noticed she's been posting about the designer a lot lately. First, Kardashian shared a photo of her LV-decorated trash bins, then later uploaded a picture to Instagram that prominently featured the Louis Vuitton logo without a caption.

Thursday afternoon, however, Kardashian explained that the photo had nothing to do with her baby's name as she tweeted, "NOPE! It was Kim Jones last show and wanted to snap a LV pic." Her story checks out: Kim Jones had his final show with the brand this week before leaving his position as Louis Vuitton's artistic director of menswear. 

So, no, it doesn't look like Kardashian and West's new baby will be named Vuitton West or any of the other LV-inspired theories floating around.

The only other lead we have to go on is the fact that Kanye told paparazzi that he thinks the idea of naming the baby Donda is "fire." It seems unlikely that he would actually name her after his mother, but who knows? Until they finally decide to reveal the girl's name, all fans are left to do is sit around and frustratingly speculate.
