Kim Kardashian's baby will not have a middle name.

The reality TV star - who is dating Kanye West - gave birth to the couple's first child, daughter North West, last week and a copy of the birth certificate obtained by TMZ, has shown the tot doesn't have a middle name.

Kim and Kanye will call the newborn 'Nori' for short.

While it had been speculated the couple had chosen Kaidence Donda for their daughter, they surprised everyone with the directional moniker, and plan to call her 'Nori' as a nickname.

It has been claimed they chose North following advice from US Vogue editor Anna Wintour.

A source told E! News: "That's not why they named her North, but it's nice to have Anna's blessing!"

Meanwhile, Kim - who was mocked for her weight gain during pregnancy - reportedly plans to hit the gym as soon as she is physically able to so she can start shifting the pregnancy pounds she gained.

A source said: "She's already looking ahead to when she can exercise again."

Another insider added: "She really wants to get back into shape. It's important to her."

Kim continued to exercise while she was expecting; following a light regime devised by celebrity fitness trainer Tracy Anderson.

But the 32-year-old beauty is reportedly considering hiring Gunnar Peterson who has helped her younger sister Khloe, 28, lose 25lbs.

Kanye West pens four songs about daughter

Kanye West has reportedly written four news songs about his baby daughter since her birth last week.

Kanye West has written four news songs about his daughter.

The 35-year-old rapper - who has just released his latest album 'Yeezus' - was so inspired by the birth of his first child with girlfriend Kim Kardashian last week that he has already started working on new music.

A source told Life & Style: "He's been really inspired by the birth. He's written four songs already."

Meanwhile, it has been revealed that Kanye is happy for him, Kim and their baby - who reportedly left hospital yesterday - to move in with Kim's family until renovations on their new Bel Air mansion are complete.

An insider previously revealed: "All that's going to happen is that the family is going to wait on Kim hand-and-foot and do everything around the house while she and Kanye just chill with the baby. That sounds like a deal. It's like first class service all the way at Kim's mom's house.

"They're very thankful for the way they've been treated, and the hospitality [at the hospital] is amazing. But it's nothing like being at home, in your own space, with your own things."
