‘Rocky’s due’: Travis Barker finally reveals the name of his and Kourtney Kardashian’s baby boy
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Travis Barker has finally revealed the name of his and Kourtney Kardashian's baby boy along with her due date.
The couple, who got married in May 2022, have reportedly decided to name their son 'Rocky Thirteen Barker' after a punk rock guitarist and the greatest boxing movie of all time.
Travis Barker revealed he had to cancel a benefit concert in Hawaii
Travis shared the name and the due date of his baby boy during an episode of ‘One Life Once Chance With Toby Morse’, a podcast hosted by his friend and fellow musician.
He said he had to cancel a benefit concert in Hawaii because it was the week that 'Rocky was due.'
“There was a benefit in Hawaii that we were gonna do, but it’s the week that Rocky’s due,” Travis said. “Rocky Thirteen Barker?” Toby asked, sounding surprised.
“Rocky Thirteen Barker!” Travis confirmed, to which Toby complimented, “That’s such a hard name man."
Travis joked, “He’s gonna come out of my wife’s vagina, like, doing front kicks and push-ups.”
Travis also said he was not sure if Rocky would be his last child, saying, “I don’t know, I don’t know if it’s the last one, whatever God gives me, you know.”
Why did Travis Barker chose the name 'Rocky Thirteen Barker' for his baby boy?
The name Rocky Thirteen Barker has a special meaning for Travis who is a fan of Suicidal Tendencies, a punk rock band.
He explained that Rocky George was the guitarist for the band and that 13 was the greatest number of all time.
He also said that 'Rocky' was the greatest boxing movie of all time, referring to the iconic film series starring Sylvester Stallone.
Travis had previously hinted at the baby’s name in July when he and his daughter Alabama Barker, 17, did a ‘GOAT Talk’ interview with Complex.
Alabama criticized her dad’s choice of name, calling it “bad”, and adding “Even [you know] it’s bad.” Travis agreed with her saying, “It is, it is bad,” but then defended his preference.
“Rocky George played guitar for Suicidal Tendencies,” Travis said, adding “And 13 is just the greatest number of all time. And ‘Rocky’ [is] the greatest boxing movie of all time."
When did Kourtney Kardashian announced her pregnancy?
Kourtney announced her pregnancy to the public in June when she held up a sign that read, ‘Travis, I’m Pregnant’ during his concert.
The couple had been friends for nearly a decade before they started dating in late 2020. They made their relationship Instagram official in February 2021 and got engaged in October 2021.
They tied the knot at a courthouse in Santa Barbara in May 2022, before flying to Italy for a lavish wedding at the Dolce & Gabbana mansion.
Kourtney shares three children with her ex-husband Scott Disick - Mason, 13, Penelope, 11, and Reign, eight. Travis also has two children from his previous marriage to Shanna Moakler - Landon, 20, and Alabama, 17.
