While a lot of people chastised Kim Kardashian West and Kanye West for naming their daughter North, a few were actually infatuated by their choice. After being crowned by GQ for her hotness, Kim revealed to the magazine who exactly played vital roles in the naming of her precious daughter North.

“It was a rumor in the press and we’d never really considered [the name North] seriously at all. But Kanye and I were having lunch … and Pharrell came over to us and said, ‘Oh my god, are you guys really going to call your daughter North? That is the best name.’”

After Pharrell provided his stamp of approval, U.S. Vogue Editor, Anna Wintour chimed in and seconded the notion on naming their daughter North.

“Then a little while later Anna Wintour came over and asked the same thing. She told us, ‘North is a genius name.’ Kanye and I looked at one another and just laughed. I guess at that point it sort of stuck.”

There you have it, the story of North West courtesy of Kim Kardashian, Kanye, Pharrell, and Anna Wintour.
