Kanye West Is Going To Change His Name To ‘Ye’

Kanye West has decided that he no longer wants to be called Kanye anymore. 

Kanye West Is Going To Change His Name To ‘Ye’

The rapper, who often calls himself ‘Ye,’ has decided to change his name to that by filing some legal paperwork in a Los Angeles County Court, according to TMZ.

The documents confirmed as much: “[Kanye] requests that the court decree the following name changes [from Kanye Omari West, to Ye].”

This begs the question, why would Kanye decide to do that now. Well, it could be for several reasons. First of all, he is no longer with Kim Kardashian as the pair navigate their divorce settlement.

Naturally, it could be done in order to mark a fresh start. Not only that, but it also has a religious significance that is appealing. The rapper has not made it a secret that he has an admiration for the portrayal of Jesus in the Bible, and that is something that he is looking to tap into.

In a prior interview, the rapper remarked: “I believe ‘Ye’…in the Bible, it means ‘you.’ So I’m you, I’m us, it’s us. It went from Kanye, which means the only one, to just Ye — just being a reflection of our good, our bad, our confused, everything.”

Despite Kanye’s wish to have a fresh start, he has been spotted with Kim a lot in the aftermath of their split. There is no reason to suggest that their divorce will be called off. Instead, it is seen as a natural response to the fact that they do have children together. 

And yet, fans have continued to question this in light of the fact that Kanye has broken up with Irina Shayk. The pair are no longer together, as reports emerged that Irina could not balance her career with the expectations that Kanye had with regards to being a couple.

That has opened the door for Kanye to get back with Kim, which is what fans are hoping for. Kanye may have a new name, but we can still expect him to be divisive as ever. That is ultimately what has kept him relevant throughout the years to make him one of the most popular celebrities around.
