Fans of Kylie Jenner may have finally figured out the meaning behind her daughter Stormi‘s name.

After revealing her baby girl’s moniker earlier this week, the 20-year-old reality star and Lip Kit mastermind has not expanded on her choice — but others have their theories.

Kylie is notably a fan of butterflies, wearing a sparkly pink diamond butterfly ring for a November photo shoot and getting matching ankle butterfly tattoos with boyfriend Travis Scott. One of the 25-year-old rapper’s most popular tracks, “Butterfly Effect,” also references the insect.

Scott also gave Kylie some butterfly-themed bling for her birthday in August: a gold choker-style necklace featuring five diamond-covered butterflies, as well as two mega-carat diamonds on either side of a large blue butterfly.

Fans all over social media have made the connection between the butterfly effect and Stormi’s name, pointing out chaos theory in the idea that a butterfly flapping its wings can create a storm somewhere far away.

Fans were buzzing about a possibility of the new addition‘s name after her birth was announced, noticing how Kris Jenner shared a photo of Kylie’s new seasonal beauty product the day after her daughter was born. The name of the limited-edition product? Posie K.

Individuals were quick to point out “Posie” could be short for Mariposa — a word used often as a name that is Spanish for “butterfly” — while K could point to either a middle initial or be a nod to Kylie’s Kardashian sisters.

Kylie announced her first child’s birth with a social-media post and accompanying video montage on Sunday, writing on Instagram, “I’m sorry for keeping you in the dark through all the assumptions. I understand you’re used to me bringing you along on all my journeys. My pregnancy was one I chose not to do in front of the world.”

She revealed the baby girl’s name two days later, captioning a photo of her daughter simply, “Stormi Webster” and adding an angel emoji. In the sweet snap, baby Stormi can be seen sound asleep in a pink outfit while clutching her mom’s perfectly pink manicured hand.
