Kanye West asks court to legally change his name to Ye

 The l. a. court filing says the 44-year-old wants to urge obviate his full name — Kanye Omari West — in favor of just his longtime two-letter nickname.

LOS ANGELES — Kanye just wants to be Ye.

 

Kanye West filed court documents Tuesday to legally change his name.

 

The l. a. court filing says the 44-year-old wants to urge obviate his full name — Kanye Omari West — in favor of just his longtime two-letter nickname, Ye, with no name or surname .

 

The documents, dated Aug. 11 but not sent into the court system until Tuesday, cite “personal reasons” for the change. An email seeking comment from the attorney who filed the documents wasn't immediately returned.

 

A judge must approve of the change before it becomes official.

West, who has called himself Ye on his social media pages for years, tweeted that he wanted the change in 2018, saying, “the being formally referred to as Kanye West. I am YE.”

 

The moniker was also the title of his 2018 album. He has said in interviews that, along side being a shortening of his given name he likes, that it’s a word used throughout the Bible.

 

West is within the middle of a divorce with Kim Kardashian West, who didn't ask that her surname be changed back to only Kardashian when she filed to separate from him in February. The couple’s four children even have his surname .

He has been holding a series of stadium listening parties for his forthcoming 10th studio album “Donda,” which is scheduled to be released before the top of August.
