Reality TV star Kris Jenner wants to change her name back to Kardashian but her daughter Khloe does not approve.
The 60-year-old star changed her name after she divorced Robert Kardashian in 1991 and married Bruce [now known as Caitlyn] Jenner and Kris has revealed that she wants to revert back to her former surname, reported Female First.
In a deleted scene from "Keeping Up With the Kardashians", Kris told her daughter Khloe Kardashian that she still uses the famous surname to get reservations at restaurants.
"I call the manager usually and I say, 'Hey! It's Kris Kardashian'. I'm going to change my name back to Kardashian."
When Khloe, 31, replied, "Why? You haven't been that in over 24 years," Kris insisted she was the "original Kardashian", before Khloe and her famous sisters, Kourtney and Kim, came along.
She said, "I was that before you were that. I was the original Kardashian."
Khloe was, however, unimpressed and claimed it was an insult to Kris and Caitlyn's two daughters, Kendall, 20 and 18-year-old Kylie Jenner.
"I don't care if you were that, that's bizarre. Why don't you go back to your maiden name? Keep Kris Jenner. Don't you think that's insulting to your two daughters?"
But a defiant Kris stubbornly replied, "It just doesn't sound right. If Bruce can change his name to Caitlyn, I think I'm good.
