Kanye West applies to have name changed to Ye
Eccentric rapper Kanye West has filed court documents to officially change his name to just Ye.
According to The Guardian, court papers indicated that Kanye Omari West petitioned to change his name to Ye, with no other first name or surname. The application cited “personal reasons” for the change.
