Kim Kardashian and Kanye West were apparently biblically inspired when it was time to name their fourth child.

The couple’s newest child was born May 10 via a surrogate, but they waited a week before announcing on Twitter that their baby boy’s name was “Psalm.”

If you’re not up on theology, a psalm is a sacred song or hymn and is also the title of a book in the Bible.

As you might expect, the new name inspired strong reactions from Twitter users. Some loved it ...

I bet people pronounce it “Palm” 🙄

A very unique and gorgoeus name. And thats the best chapter of the bible as well

OMGGG I guessed his name was going to be Hymn West because music and Sunday Service is so important to your family, Psalm & Hymn are so closely related!!

Others weren’t so sure ...

And then there were those who were looking for any opportunity for snark.
